    Mini GPS trackers have been available for cheap (cheaper than AirTags) for years and they’re practically undetectable. No apps are going to help you there.

    Apple built detection features, beeping alarms, and even apps for platforms beyond their own to aid people in not being tracked against their will. Tile didn’t. I don’t know any other trackers that have put as much effort into the problem.

    Google wouldn’t implement OS-level features for competitors’ products so people suggesting Apple shouldn’t have launched until their competitors added in support are being unrealistic.
