if my husband has an AirTag on his phone, and only his samsung on and with it... Will the findme app and my apple device find where it is if it isn't near another apple device? I am wondering if his phones bluetooth, wifi signal will transmit the AirTag signal out.
Not quite sure what you’re asking…
Though an Android can load an Apple-provided tracker app that can directly detect a nearby AirTag and that can potentially also detect other Find My devices nearby, an Android phone does not continuously scan for Find My devices.
Apple does not indicate that an Android phone with the tracker app loaded will upload Find My positioning information to Apple. Uploading tracking to Apple only lists Apple iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac in proximity.
There’s no positioning-relay (to Apple) function documented anywhere for Android.
