    Thanks so much, you explain well. Yesterday my Mom and other family were talking about a friend with dementia who walks off and then can't find his way home. We talked that we'd get an airtag for my Mom if she ever suffered from the disease he does.

      It will show the last known location it pinged from when it had any contact with an iPhone close by, if you know the general area you can also proximity scan for it and it will lead you to the direction of it.

    Also, should be noted that these cannot be used to track someone against their will. If an airtag that doesn't belong to you is following you around (thrown in your bag or car by some one else), you'll be notified that your location is being tracked. There have already been several cases where exes are tracking and harming their former lovers.

      If someone walks within Bluetooth range it will ping its location through their phone, like wise whoever dropped it there would have its location pinged already so it would still show its last known location on your phone.

    Not a mention on how they work. Not that it's that difficult. It's a plagetized version or Lora that ham radio guys have been using for years. Except the only nodes are apple users. And the power output sucks. For those of you that choose to live on top of each other, it probolly works good. For the rest of us, it will be a nothing burger.
