Airtag not reachable, Searching for signal
I have tried for over a month to get Airtags to work for me.
I have purchased more than 20 Airtags and have found that only 3 of them have worked about 10% of the time. The remaining 17 never worked. The 3 work sporadically - usually they don’t.
They all pair perfectly. They all know I’m nearby since I see the green UP arrow button and not the blue directions button.
However, tapping on Play Sound results in an immediate failure and message of “Airtag not reachable” and if I tap on Find, I’m permanently stuck on “Searching for Signal”.
I have iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone X, and a new iPad.
I rebooted my phone, restored network settings, uninstalled the tags, and reset the tags. I’ve toggled all the location and precision finding and find my settings in iOS — nothing works.
Can anyone solve this mystery? Apple Support had no clue.
