It was all the time that saved me from a good fear

I am not particularly distraught, but I recognize that daily agitation and haste playing bad passes. Three years ago, they gave me an Airtag, this little Apple locker who promised to give us more tranquility. And my mother gave me. If I hadn't brought a pavilion In key moments, probably I would have lost much more than my tranquility: From the loss of a flight to thought that my car or a backpack had disappeared with my MacBook Pro inside.

And I always say: Airtag is a wonderful product (not perfect). Its minimalist design It looks good just like the Trousseau. It has a quality of quality like few products in Apple and it is a gift with which you will always look good. But here, I did not come to try to sell you an AIRTAG, only to tell you four personal situations in which the Airtag saved me in haste.

Some keys to cost me the holidays

I remember perfectly the first time that Airtag saved me from a good fear. It was the day of typical pre-vifation chaos: Flight to London, always without fenceAnd a last walk with the dog before leaving him with the caregiver. As I usually do, he wore the Home keys in your rear pocket Izquierdo, such a dangerous habit when you are rushed.

I went down with the dog and, in one of these maneuvers to put the belt, I had to lose my keys without discovering it. Yes, they fell from the pocket of the ass. But of course, at that time, I didn't even imagine it. I delivered the dog, I went home and, just when I returned again … I realized: I did not have the keys. They were not in their pocket or in the jacket. The classic moment, you start to sweat and feel heat. You check each corner, review your movements mentally.

Fortunately (and almost without realizing how useful it was until this time), I opened the application of application and I saw that the keys were always located at the entrance to the gate. The Airtag indicated the exact location and they were thereJust where I crouched. I called a neighbor, opened the door and the chaos dissolved. Without the air, I would probably have lost the flight, called in a locksmith … I prefer or think about it.

A forgotten backpack and the MacBook Safe … thanks to Airtag

On another occasion, the Arata has again demonstrated its usefulness. And this time, I did not lose a flight of 24.99 Ryanair. I tell you: this afternoon, I got out of work, MOchila on the shoulder and my MacBook Pro inside. I decided to make a few shopping in Puerto Venice, a large shopping center in Zaragoza. I first stopped in Ikea, I had to do something in customer service. I don't remember well, but I remembered that the row was eternal.

After more than half an hour and dozens of figures later, my turn finally arrived. This GDP! Round and you stand up. Fortunately In Ikea, there are many sofas where to wait, and of course, I had become comfortable. Ready, I resolved everything quickly and I went to the cinema in another region of the shopping center. I remember it as if it was yesterday. I walked for ten minutes that Ikea separated from the cinema and when I went to get my backpack with the water bottle, I panicked. I didn't have it with me. The backpack with my laptop, the keys … Lord, if the keys gave me heat. It was already to fall to the ground.

Here I was faster, I had already learned. While opening the search for application for my considerations, he said “to continue ikea, to continue ikea”. And less bad, Airtag scored that I was there four minutes ago. I hit the sprint in my life and, in fact, there was my backpack.

The “missing” car in a parking lot in Madrid

I have to admit this story. But well, it's me. Commercial center of Pléilunio, in Madrid. Before I live in Zaragoza, I went a lot, and In good head, I always park in the same area. That day, the stars did not align and ended up leaving the car in the underground parking lot, in a plant where I had never been.

After the film (yes, I really like the cinema) and a late dinner, we returned to the parking lot and … the car was not. Not only that, but all the references failed me: certain outings were already closed, it was Around one morning and practically empty parking. After half an hour, with doubt (too real) if they had stolen it, I was about to call the police. In this panic, I remembered the Airtag who had worn it on the keys and, so as not to nail them in my pocket, I had left them in the car glove compartment. I took the iPhone, and although the Airtag precision search is not good enough to move in a parking lot, at least confirmed that the car was still in the region.

This tranquility to know that the car had not disappeared was sufficient to reduce the level of anxiety and research with a little more logic than anxiety. Finally, It turned out that a plus plant had droppedWhere I didn't even know there was a parking lot. The Airtag does not take you exactly by the square meter, but enough to avoid an insurance call. For my defense, I would say that the shopping center is “on the slope” and that there are parking plants -1 which seem to be on the street floor and the same with -2, which seems to be -1.

The tranquility of traveling with Airtag in the suitcase

Not all stories require fears to demonstrate the usefulness of aerotage. At one time, I frequently traveled between Madrid and Zaragoza by bus. I was traveling almost every weekAnd my economy was not (neither) enough to go by train. Who has traveled by bus, knows the uncertainty that the suitcase leaves at the bottom of the bus, out of sight. Flights, confusion with twin bags… The possibility of losing it is always there, especially in intermediate stops.

When climbing the bus, I can always see that the suitcase is just under any stop I was sure he had not moved. For the moment, I have not suffered a mishap, but I know that if the suitcase disappeared, it would have a real chance of locating it quickly. And just for this mental peace, it was already worth it.

Thinking about the second generation: what should I ask for the future of the Airtag?

After three years of real use, I can say that Iirtag is one of Apple's roundest products for those who, like me, live between schedules, trips and small errors. It's not perfect: The precision is limited, it is not a pure GPSBut its integration into the research network and its good price make it a device that I recommend having everyone.

Now, with the rumors of a second generation around the corner, I can only expect Apple even more precision. That the range of The location goes further and the connection is more stable. Meanwhile, I will continue to trust this little white circle which, more than once, saved me big (and small) aversions.
