Work like a charm found the Air Pod instantly very simple and no ads all in all this is an amazing app, but I mean it was kind of funny cuz it was attached to something that we knew had one on it and just forgot lol

Kept getting a notification on my other phone saying a tracker was following me but it couldn't connect to it. Downloaded this app on my Samsung, and I was able to track it down and connect to it to play a sound. Great App. Awesome. Thank you so much. Kidnappers-0 me-1
★★★★★Aiden Hatch· Aug 7, 2026
Works well super reliable to find trackers and after five minutes you can play sound on it in order to find it and that feature works very well too ☆☆☆☆☆

This app has a specific use scenario, and many of the negative reviews are not Jermaine to that scenario. If you have a stalker or similar, and see something suspicious that raises issues, like someone messing around near your car or belongings, someone possibly tailing you, etc. this may be useful. It's not going to detect everything, but it will possibly detect less sophisticated devices. False negatives can occur from trucks on the freeway. It takes a long time to scan but will complete.

Useless app. Why no air tag app for Android. Sad apple.
★☆☆☆☆Yungly Ngo· Jul 20, 2025
Useless. I placed an airtag that belonged to my cousin and I own a Samsung and I never detected the tag after 3 tries
★☆☆☆☆Tim Bates· Jan 12, 2026
There is literally no technical reason for Apple to not allow Android users to log into this app with their Apple ID, and detect nearby airtags that belong to them (or are shared to them)... I would buy an absolute boat load of airtags if they would do that. But in the current form, where I'm forced to go and find my iPad to do anything, airtags are kinda painful to use. They could even extend the discovery coverage by having this app work with the Find my network.

You have to wait 10 minutes before being able to make the tracker play a sound. Download Air Guard which is made by the Technical University of Darmstadt in Germany doesn't have this nonsense restriction and is also Open Source.
