Apple has added a battery status feature in the tracker Air Tag So that the user will be able to know when it's time to replace the battery but it looks like the company has decided to get rid of the battery case in the AirTag, read on to find out the real reason why Apple intentionally removed the battery case in the AirTag.
AirTag tracking tool
Apple had launched the AirTag tracking tool, which can be linked to a number of your items such as a keychain, wallet or even a bag, and then you can track any item where the tool plays a sound to find out the location of the item or through the iPhone through the Find My application to find out the location of the item precisely.
In previous versions of iOS, a small battery icon similar to the iPhone battery status could be seen below the tracker name and location when opening the Find My app. Although it did not provide the user with a percentage of the battery status, it did tell you the approximate battery status through colors. Gray indicates that the battery is still working at full capacity and when the battery is very low, the indicator turns red with an alert to the user telling him that the battery needs to be replaced, but with iOS 15.6 and the latest beta version of iOS 16, Apple decided to get rid of the battery status This feature no longer exists.
What's the reason
Says Camel The AirTag's battery life is up to one year (according to normal use, play sound 4 times and locate once per day) this means that the battery is not power hungry and can continue to work for a long time.
Apple did not talk about this officially, but experts and analysts believe that it chose to get rid of the battery status indicator in the AirTag tracker due to the ongoing problems caused by it, as it was often inaccurate and some users found that the indicator tells them that the battery is no longer working, but it was Others received notifications that the battery was replaced even though they only used the tracker once, so Apple decided to remove the feature and the user can now rely only on the notification that appears to him when the battery efficiency drops significantly, and this is when the battery should be replaced.

Hi
A question for the expert brothers about AirTag
We are in Syria, as everyone knows, especially in small cities far from the capital, where there is no iPhone or Apple products at all, and rarely sometimes.
Is it possible to take advantage of AirTag, especially since I learned that it uses Apple products to send its location?
Also, note that the internet services are very bad, even 3G, there are no most cities
Welcome!
You do not need the Internet when the Airtag is in your vicinity to search for it! No, if it is separated and lost in a remote place, the Internet needs to be reported that it is missing and put the phone number or email so that whoever finds it contacts you so that you can put a message that it is stolen!
You also need the Internet to update it without your intervention! All of my words require a supported iPhone or iPad to connect to this piece!
No permanent internet required
But any iPhone or iPad is located within 20 meters of any piece of AirTag. The device can (even without knowing its owner) to send the coordinates of the location of the Airtag piece to Apple’s secret networks in an encrypted and completely secure form so that the owner of the Airtag knows the location of the piece
Of course, this service improves with the improvement of the availability of iPhones and the presence of the Internet, even for a few moments a day
In this case, if there is no Apple product to communicate with Air tag and send its location, it becomes useless except within the XNUMX meters range.
Therefore, it is not suitable for a children's or car tracker
Because most likely in these areas, you will not encounter an Apple device once a year 😅
AirTags is one of Apple's best inventions
I expect the next versions will come in a smaller size and thinner than the previous ones
Their decision to remove the battery level is not good
It would have been better to fix the problem by showing the percentage, it could be a temporary decision until the problem is fixed
There is little demand to buy this device, and it is likely that it will disappear, like some devices that Apple has neglected
You are completely wrong
Airtags are very useful
Great safety element
Imagine if you put one in your son's bag and the child was lost, God forbid, you could easily find it
Or your car or bike was stolen and the AirTags were inside it, you can't imagine the size of happiness to see its place
Or you are in a hurry to go to work and look for your keys and do not find them, with a simple click or a voice command for Siri to find the keys for you, you can know their location with an accuracy not exceeding 20 cm!!
You have to buy one and try it for yourself
The lower the quality...the lower the price.... And therefore a waste of money...we are waiting for high quality and everything has a known time
It's expensive, so we haven't bought it yet
There is a Chinese version of it or close to it on the Internet, which is much cheaper, but it does not work as well
Useful for anyone who needs it.
I benefited from it XNUMX%
The Apple battery, compared to the rest of the Android devices, is very soft and was previously not as a result of using a charger and an original charging cable with the phone, but as a result of Apple’s search for huge profits at any cost, it raised the truck and headphones from the target’s accessories and made the truck approved by it sold at a high price that added to the value of the phone Under a flimsy pretext that no one believes, which caused the damage of the phone battery as a result of the citizen having to buy an inappropriate truck, and that's all there is to it. Even the battery status in the settings does not read the battery status correctly. I have a 12 Pro phone, the battery condition is 88%, while I checked it with the Apple Support program Ap support showed that the battery condition is only 80%, and this is a clear cheat
Although I have an iPhone SE 1 with 14.8.1 and an iPod touch 7 with two devices, one with ios 5.6 and the second with 14.8, I did not face any problem with what was mentioned in the article, even though the devices are relatively old and I have a Mac Air 2015. All devices are connected to one air crown!
With regard to the battery, I know how much it consumes from devices that did not update the latest version! Mac system does not show the battery from the ground up!
It's overpriced, and that's why it's still not bought
The price is very excellent and the characteristics are very excellent. I have it in the company car and with the children and all the keys are very, very, very excellent
