Track Mailed Items

If you’re sending a valuable item, sensitive documents, or something irreplaceable to friends or family, consider dropping an AirTag in the package (which they can return to you later). This way, you can track its journey to ensure it arrives at its destination, especially when delivering items overseas or sending gifts back and forth during the holidays.

Not sure if that’s allowed due to the battery?

FWIW I use them extensively. 

  • Haven’t put them on remotes yet.
  • Nor have I “tagged” a pet; not “chipped” either. Argh!
  • Nor have used one for my wallet; should, but haven’t yet.  
  • Don’t have a drone.
  • Have them in cars, luggage, bags, and on my keys.
  • Battery replacement is easy.

And, I put their location (for example in the car) in the name (i.e., Rogue glove box 1/1/25) so i can find them when the battery needs replacing.

YMMV
