The difference with tile is that it can be used on any platform hence why I’m mentioning it.
Airtag can only be tracked by iphones.
Samsung tags only by Samsung phones.
Tiles can be tracked by both an Android phone and an iphone even though the latter will probably never happen.
Right now I have an electric scooter with the Find My feature and I can’t use it because I don’t own any apple products.
My only hope is that the EU forces yet another regulation to force intercompatibility in these devices and guarantee that they cannot be used by creeps too easily.
One can hope.
In the meantime I bought a bunch of Tiles that I just noticed are all out of battery one year after buying them…
In any case there is barely any tile users where I live so all of that is pointless. The Apple network is the one I would benefit from using but as usual it’s completely closed down…
You rely on software that only few users use. Its not universal in the sense airtag users doesn’t ping tile and tile users doesn’t ping smart tag. I am not talking about the platform but the interconnectivity and user base as that’s what all of these tech rely on.
I did forgot about EU but don’t know if it will be possible for them to enforce it given the complications and lack of universal tech as in free to use by any of these companies.

But that’s exactly what I said…
