  • Apple's new iPhone MagSafe wallet adds Find My support

    Doesn’t look like it actively tracks the wallet once disconnected. 

    “In this case, the MagSafe leather wallet will notify users of the last known location where the wallet was separated from the phone. It will not, however, provide real-time tracking.”

  • Snapback Slim Air Review: the right way to add AirTag to a wallet

    Unfortunately the reviewed product isn't a wallet, but a card case. As such it's only going to suit a minority of people, and the small minority who only carry 2-3 cards, including ID.

    Most actual wallets, even the thin ones I seek out, are about as thick as an AirTag — and that's before you load them with cards and cash. Stacking an AirTag on top of these is a non-starter, and having a flappy dongle for the AirTag is no better. I'd like to see a wallet that has an extension on one of the sides designed to house an AirTag next to the other contents, rather than on top of them. Yes the wallet would be either a bit taller or wider, but it wouldn't be thicker.
    I just re-read the review to make sure I wasn’t going crazy because I have more than 2-3 cards, but it says it holds 6 cards and some cash. I don’t know what you carry in your wallet, but I’m mostly cards and rarely cash (and never coins).

    I still think a compact wallet with a loop for the AirTag is the perfect solution. I can hold 6-7 cards and some folded money without bulging. The AirTag is movable but secure and the whole thing fits in a front pocket easy!

    (i just wish someone offered this solution complete—I used Apple’s key ring holder and the leathers don’t match 100% and I had to buy the steel cord loop separate.)
    That looks too cumbersome for me with the extra keychain loop attached and moving around, but to each their own.

    The perfect design would be for Apple to make the AirTag in a card format similar to Tile, but I wonder if that’s something they would even consider at this point since they’re trying to make everything card free.

    I’ll give this a go for now as I’m due for a wallet upgrade.

    Nice! While I love my Apple MagSafe wallet, I normally carry 6 cards and have to choose which cards I bring since it only holds 3 cards max. 

    I just grabbed one of these and look forward to checking it out next month. @AppleInsider Is the AirTag secure in the front pocket?

  • New colors for AirTag Leather Key Ring, Leather Loop now available

    I’m really bummed they don’t name these in black. 

    Brown looks great, but I prefer black and really hope they release it in that color one day.
