Configure the AirTag
If you own a AirTag you're in luck. We are going to tell you how to configure it from scratch and we are going to talk about everything we can do with it, based on the functions it has.
The AirTag are small locator devices with which you can locate any object. To do this, you must place it next to the object that you do not want to lose and, we assure you, that you will never lose it since each time that happens and by accessing the "Search" app, in the "Objects" section, you will be able to see its location.
Although it is a small product, a little larger than a 2 Euro coin, it is a great device that we can give a lot of use to.
Because it is not convenient to use AirTags to spy on
How to set up the Airtag:

Setting up one of these Apple products is very simple. Once we have it in our possession and as long as it is new, or does not have an Apple ID linked, we simply have to put it near the iPhone to which we are going to link it. This will make us synchronize it with the ID that we have on the iPhone and, thus, be able to access all the functions of the AirTag and be able to locate it at any time and place.
When you zoom in, in a matter of seconds, we will see a screen on the mobile that will recognize the AirTag. When we see it we have to follow the steps that appear to us and that we show you in images below:
Steps to configure the AirTag
Now when we enter the "Search" app and in the "Objects" section, which we will see in the bottom menu of the screen, it will appear and by clicking on it we can access its settings. These are the following:
Airtag Options and Settings
- Play Sound: Pressing this option will make our AirTag emit a sound to help us know where it is. Very helpful.
- Search: A kind of search engine will appear that will guide us to the exact place where the device is.
- Notifications: We will make the app notify us when a person has found our AirTag. This is enabled when we activate the lost mode and the device is far from our iPhone.
- Lost Mode: Activating this allows us to configure the AirTag so that if someone finds it, they can return it to us. We can add our mobile number and a message for it.
AirTag Lost Mode
- Rename object: If we ever want to change the object to the AirTag, this is the option that allows us to do so.
- Delete object: Unlinks the AirTag from our ID and from our iPhone.
How to restore or unlock an AirTag:
To restore an AirTag you simply have to delete the object from your iPhone To do this you must press, within the options Airtag in the “Search” app, in the “Delete object” option. This will allow the device to be linked to another Apple ID or to your own Apple ID in case you want to restore the device for any reason.
If you come across a Airtag and want to unlock it, you can never do so as long as it's linked to an Apple ID .That is why it is foolish to keep it. It is best to return it by scanning it with the "Search" app on your iPhone and contacting its owner.
How to remove and change the AirTag battery:
To change the battery of the Airtag we simply have to click on the silver part of the device and turn to the right. This will make it open so we can change it.
The AirTag battery is said to last one year. Let's hope so.
And we just hope that you have been interested in this article and that you share it with all those who might be interested.
