AirTags configuration
AirTags have been around for some time now These small Apple devices allow us to locate the objects to which we have added them (by means of a key ring, sticker, etc.) directly from the app Search of our iPhone
But, although its use allows you to locate lost or stolen objects, there have been people who have given them other functions. Among them, harassing different people, as well as spying on them since they allow us to know, at all times, where the person would be.
Apple improves the security of AirTags with iOS 15.4
To avoid this, Apple has been launching, since the launch and presentation of the AirTags, new extra security features But the company is aware of the risks that may be involved these devices and with iOS 15.4 go further by improving security.
Among these improvements, Apple is going to make it clear, via a message when configuring the AirTag, that there are people who could use them to tracking people and that this act can be a crime in many countries around the world.
Tracking notice in Search app
In addition, they also improve their tracking notifications from the AirTags configuration, so that we can configure them to our liking. In this way, for example, we can give importance to the tracking notifications of the AirTag.
These new enhancements and extra security features in AirTags join those previously added by Apple to prevent tracking and harassment using these locator devices. Something that is important to be able to carry these accessories safely.
Security features will be available to all users at the same time as iOS version 15.4 This version shouldn't take long to reach stable phase as it's already for the fourth beta. As always, we will keep you informed of all the news and releases.
