Your iPhone Might Not Be Fully Compatible With Apple's New AirTag

On Monday, Apple released a new AirTag—but you wouldn't know that from looking at it. The new AirTag is visibly identical to the old one, despite dropping nearly five years later. But the point of this refresh wasn't to introduce a new design, or even a remarkably improved tracker.

Key Highlights

  • Instead, Apple added a couple subtle upgrades that benefit new buyers, without displacing existing AirTag users.
  • There are two key improvements here: The first impacts Precision Finding, Apple's system to guide you to lost items.
  • Your device uses its ultra wideband (UWB) chip to give you detailed directions to the location of your AirTag, including haptics, visual, and auditory cues.
  • The second-gen AirTags have a newer UWB chip, which boosts Precision Finding by 50%.
  • That means your new AirTag can be as much as 1.5 times farther away than your old AirTag while still showing up in Precision Finding.
