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.
