Cannot connect airtag and iphone 11

I set up my airtag with my iPhone 7 with no problem, but wanted to remove it from this account and phone and add it to my iphone 11. I removed it, but cannot get it to connect to the iphone 11. Bluetooth is on, Wi-fi on, Two factor authentication on, IOS 15.4. I reset the airtag. Nothing happens on the iPhone. I restarted the iPhone and reset the airtag again. Nothing.

If this isn't your AirTag --> What to do if you get an alert that an AirTag, Find My network accessory or set of AirPods is with you – Apple Support (UK)


Get information about or disable an AirTag, Find My network accessory or set of AirPods

If you have found an unknown AirTag, you can follow these steps to see information about it or to disable it: 

  1. If you have found an AirTag, hold the top of your iPhone or NFC-capable smartphone near the white side of the AirTag until a notification appears.
  2. Tap the notification. This will open a website that provides information about the AirTag, including its serial number and the last four digits of the phone number of the person who registered it. This can help you identify the owner, if you know them. You may want to take a screenshot to make sure you can document the information.
  3. If the owner marked the AirTag as lost, you may see a message with information about how to contact the owner.

To find out more about a set of AirPods or Find My network accessory that’s been separated from its owner, scroll to the bottom of the Items tab, then tap Identify Found Item.

If you need to see a list of all AirTag and Find My Network accessories about which you have been notified, launch the Find My app on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. Tap Items. Scroll to the bottom and tap Items Detected With You. Items that have recently triggered an unwanted tracking alert will be listed. If the option to play a sound isn’t available, the item may not be with you any more, may be near its owner or if it was with you overnight, its identifier may have changed.
