I've tried the Locate Wallet thing with a Trackr device is it was dismal. This card might be worth looking into.

One problem for me is the distance required before getting a notification. I  set up a Left Behind alert for my phone so if I left the house without it, I'd get an alert on my watch, and vice versa. But it takes an enabling run for the alert to trigger. I get several blocks away before getting a notifications.

Since Left Behind uses Bluetooth which under the best of conditions has a max range of about 100' line of sight (usually much less) I was hoping to get an alert as soon as I got in my car. No dice. This is a great feature but I wish the range was more adjustable.

The AirTag beep is barely audible in many circumstances so I wonder how well that works buried in a wallet. 

32" ACD or nought. Go big or go home.

My phone has been on the charger most of the day because it's handy,  and it was on v.174. I plugged the MagSafe into my MBA and in the time it took me to open the phone and get to Settings/About/MagSafe it was at v.274.

WTF.

I wish this was an option with updating AirPods. It took a really long time for my AirPods 2 to update. I have no idea what my G3s should be.

I bought a 4-pack about a month or so ago, and immediately put one into service.

Checking it at the previous announcement of v.1.0.291 (1A291c), it showed 1.0.276. Yesterday I put another one is service and today, it shows v.1.0.225. I expect the remaining two will also show .225.

Since the day of the announcement of the .291 (c) update, I've kept the phone and my AirTag and phone practically as conjoined twins, but no joy. Maybe this second update (e) coming down the pike caused the first one to be pulled back.

I'm guessing neither of these updates hold any real benefit for me, so I've stopped obsessing about them getting updated.

I hope the 13 mini gets a better battery to load ratio. The battery in my 12 mini is already getting close to replacement level and I use and charge it the same way as my 5S which got terrific battery life and lacked Charging Optimization.

Yes the screen is bigger and OLED, but the battery is bigger as well. I use Dark mode a lot, and keep brightness down. But the battery being this close to replacement this soon is troubling. Apple doesn't make it easy anymore to find the Cycle count. Coincidence? I think not.
