  • I show you how to properly modify and track your car with Apple AirTags. Apple AirTags are wonderful tracking devices that can stick to anything to track. Tracking your car is another security measure, where you can track your car in the event of theft. In order to thwart these car thieves, you need to modify your AirTags so they cannot chime your AirTag, find it, and remove it from your car. I will show you step by step how to modify your AirTag to remove the speaker and install your Apple AirTag in your car!
    Now in order to really thwart thieves, you will want to install the IGLA PIN CODE Security system on your car. This is a 100% theft proof security system, you can see my video on this here: • 100% THIEF PROOF Car S...

      Well, nothing beats a GPS… Then again, if thieves put your stolen car in a garage or a warehouse, then the GPS will not work. Therefore, a combination of devices, including Bluetooth trackers, should be part of your line of defence.

    • @jean-marcfiliatrault266
      @jean-marcfiliatrault266 Před 9 měsíci +13

      About whether or not Apple would alert the thieves to the presence of a Apple Airtag or Apple-compatible Airtag, such as Eufy’s Apple-look-a-like tracker or Eufy’s Wallet tracker, the answer is a definite “YES”. However, you need to disable the speaker on such tracker and hid them well. If you have more than one in your car, then it means that the thieve is going to have to go on an “Easter egg” hunt to find them. It’s just another layer of protection for you.

      If the person who stole your car has an iPhone they will be notified of the fact that they are being tracked. Then they can disable it through their iPhone. It’s to keep people from being able to stalk someone with the AirTag. I bought one and put it in my car and as soon as my wife took off in it , she was warned that she was being tracked. It’s a totally useless device.

    My Ford F-150 was stolen last night. They disabled the onboard tracking system, but I had an Airtag hidden inside and was able to locate it for the police. I think the thieves discovered that there was an Airtag somewhere because they dumped my truck on a nearby street and left it. I did not know about the speaker removal and will be performing a bit of surgery on the Airtag, and probably hiding a second Airtag as soon as I get the truck back.

      I don’t think they discovered that there was an AirTag in it. I’ve talked with the police and they say it is standard procedure for the organized rings to drop it somewhere nearby on a low traffic street in case it does have another hidden tracker in it, then come back for it after a day or two, figuring if it is still there then it is safe for them to take it.

    Ok, yes, I agree with comments concerning multiple ATs in a vehicle. Further, remove the speakers! Another excellent suggestion, I already employ! If possible, when hiding 2 ATs, place them in adjacent hidden areas. This should to confuse any wannabe car thief into thinking only one exists!!! Normally, they would open it and remove the battery and think they are in the clear.

      I got one of these to catch my son going to places he wasn’t supposed to go. What a waste of effing and money! The guy in the video says “In case the thief opens his iPhone and discovers this device and makes it chime……”. 🙄 please give me a break. The AirTag all but tells a person that there’s an AirTag in their vehicle or it gives them the message that says that the AirTag is with them. My kid didn’t figure out that there was an AirTag around him… The stupid AirTag told him. Don’t buy an AirTag to spy on someone. Everybody has an iPhone these days. As soon as my son’s iPhone was in range of this thing, he got a notification that there was an AirTag near him. Even if you remove the chime it won’t help. Don’t waste your money. I bought a GPS device online on Amazon for $24.99. Not only was it a better GPS locator it also allowed me to hear any conversation going on in my son’s vehicle. What a waste of money. There’s a flaw with these. My son was able to figure out where it was and then he was able to disable it. Apple should be Ashamed of this shitty technology.

    A cool feature would be that multiple phones can track a tag meaning let’s say you get robbed and they take your phone away, you can have a phone at home or someone else that’s connected to it, track it. That is assuming your phone gets stolen. I have a few things that can help reduce
    Car robbery
    -Modify the start up. There’s a secret trick I did so when I start my car up, you need to hold a certain button. Without this you can’t start the car.
    -modify the wheel lug nuts, make the two front wheel have different wheel lock than the back but make it the same color.
    -AirPod tag works great.
    -Steering wheel lock can work but it’s not the best method. It just slows thieves.
    -Tint the windows, this help hide visibility from the inside. (I have a skeleton figure and have it laying in the back.) so it looks like someone is sleeping there lol 😂

    My son had suggested this recently to keep on our key fobs. My husband is in his 70’s and his memory issues are getting worse. He’s lost 2 sets of keys in 10 days. One set he put on top of my car and drove off. It’s a miracle our grandson found them on the side of the road over 2 miles away.
    What are your thoughts on using for these 2 applications? The trucks and trailers travel several states each week.

      If the thief has an iPhone then they will be notified on their phone that they are being tracked. Then all they have to do is disable it. I have one and put it in my car. Then my wife drove to work with it and it popped up on her screen. A simple google will validate what I’m saying. I’m super bummed about this because I wasted $30. It’s still hidden in my car. I can only hope that if it gets stolen that the loser doesn’t have any iOS devices. It pops up on all of their products.

      How does this whole bitcoin thing works,
      I'm interested in it and willing and ready to
      invest heavily but I need an assistant to
      properly guide me through on how to make
      a good startup and be successful in it
      without making mistakes.

      Just bought $7K Ethereum and $14k bitcoin with the recent dump in crypto I was told it's the right time to buy and get ready for a
      skyrocket.

      I have worked with four brokers in the past
      and none of them come close to Calebfx Brayden in terms of efficiency and reliability.
