Apple AirTags have proven to be one of the most useful accessories for finding lost items thanks to the fact that they can be hidden almost anywhere. However, They had a limit to be shared with other people and fortunately, it will be eliminated soon.
With iOS 18.2 you can share an AirTag with anyone
There is still a lot of rope left in iOS 18 and far from staying at iOS 18.1, released just a few weeks ago, they are already working on the next one. This week, iOS 18.2 Beta 2 was released and this is where the news was found regarding how AirTags can be shared.
Until now, AirTags could only be shared with “family”. And we put it in quotes because it wasn’t strictly necessary that they be related or live in our same house, but that their accounts be set up with Apple’s “Family” option.
The maximum number of people was therefore six, including yourself. With iOS 18.2 there is still the same limit in terms of numbers, but They can now be shared with anyone
Far from being a minor novelty, the truth is that can be very useful in different circumstances. For example, during trips, during which we can share the position of our suitcases with the rest of our companions.
Note that, like the rest of the functions of iOS 18.2, they are only available to developers or to those who are registered in the public beta program (the first was launched yesterday for them). iOS 18.2 is expected to arrive worldwide in mid-December, being the last major update for the iPhone of the year and the prelude to other new features that will arrive in 2025, including the arrival of Apple Intelligence in USA.
