r/AirTags

So on the 7th we moved and then a day after I got a notification saying an unknown AirTag is with me. I checked it and it showed it moved from the old place to the new place (literally within like 4 minutes from each other) and now at the new place when I’m in my room it says AirTag detected. I assumed it was the upstairs neighbors but why would it go from our old house especially if that was only one floor? Is there a way to disable my location with this AirTag? Plus another one popped up last night, a second generation one. I would like to show it but I don’t want to post the address or house online so yea 😅

Thx for reading and any advice is helpful

There is an unknown AirTag in my mother’s car that I cannot find. She started getting notifications of this unknown AirTag on her iPhone a few months ago. Recently though, she’s been getting the maps of where she’s driven around where we live.

I’ve looked everywhere I can think of, inside and outside the car. None of us own an AirTag and no one else who’s been inside the car has lost one.

At first, I figured it was possibly neighbors or people walking around outside the house, but the multiple maps tell me it’s the car (or something in it).

I’ve tried multiple BLE apps, including Air guard and they are useless. This particular unknown air tag also seems to have had the sound removed, as she’s tried to play sound and we hear nothing. I’ve tried to use precision finding, but that seems to only work on items that have already been added to Find My.

She also just asked a police officer today if they can check the car and they said “they don’t do that”.

We’ve yet to have a mechanic search, but is this the only option? I’m starting to get worried as she thinks it may possibly be an ex-boyfriend. I know AirTags don’t work as GPS, but the owner of it is obviously checking up on it.

Thanks!

I used the AirTag fine when I first got it. Sat in a drawer and the battery died so changed it and now it seems the notify isn’t working.

I have no location exceptions on (except it keeps turning on automatically an old address of mine which I lived at way before getting the AirTag - this isn’t linked to my Apple account/iPhone in anyway I can see now?!). I don’t think this should be an issue anyway since it is no where near where I am now!

I’ve tried removing and readding the air tag but still just the same issue!

I am not tech savvy and an android user myself. A neighbor, older than myself showed up at my door with a set of keys. Thought it could be a roommates as it was found near where they park, it isn't. I didn't realize until after it has an airtag. I don't know what to do with that, guess I just assumed someone might show up looking for their lost item being pinned via the airtag. Nothing. Is is possible it my other neighbors and it's not showing the exact location as we're so close? I have tried to ask via showing up and ringing their ring doorbell, but they never answer. How accurate is the actual find my airtag thing? It makes noise, so I assume it isn't dead.
