Apple unveiled AirTag tracking tiles in 2021 which are small round-shaped gadgets that help you track lost things through Apple's built-in ‘Find My' app

The tiny, lightweight device can be stuck into items like backpacks, wallets, keys, laptops, headphones and luggage

The device is water and dust-resistant and has a built-in speaker that plays sound when the item it is attached to goes missing

It's quite easy to use and set up AirTag. You just need to bring it close to your iPhone or any other Apple device and it will automatically connect

You can then assign AirTag to an item, and it will appear in the items tab in the ‘Find My' app on your Apple device

Apple will show you the current or last location of the AirTag on the map

If you misplaced your item and it is within Bluetooth range, you can use the ‘Find My' app to play a sound from the AirTag to help locate it

If AirTag is separated from its owner and out of Bluetooth range, the ‘Find My' network can help track the device down as well

You can also put your AirTag into “Lost Mode” and get a notification when it's within range of the ‘Find My' network

Unfortunately, you can't pair an AirTag with an Android device, but Apple doesn't stop Android owners from helping return a lost AirTag

If someone else finds your AirTag, she or he can use an iPhone or NFC-capable device to view your contact number, if you've listed it

In India, an AirTag is priced at Rs. 3,490 for one item or Rs 11,900 for a pack of four
