Unknown Airtag notification

Hi, was this problem solved without finding the actual AirTag with your belongings??

because I have the exact same issue, I also moved and 2 days later I got a notification and a same route gps between the old and new apartment. I’m still trying to track down a neighbor for any possible AirTags.

does anyone know if you can still keep attempting to “play sound” on old AirTag detected notifications?

That means that there is an AirTag that is not your AirTag but belongs to someone else, and it is near you, attached to or in something you are carrying with you. It is not a bug; it is a warning that you might be being tracked by someone. If it follows you around it is in something you have with you. If it is just when you are in the apartment one of your new neighbors is probably using AirTags to track THEIR stuff.

Hey had the same exact problem this week after moving 2 days later it came up. However there were a couple other places I had been which did not show up on the air tag map. Is this what happened to you? Has it came back up since?

"Unknown Airtag notification: Thanks for the info.: Tried follow the instruction but I did not see the option to remove it. Both 'Learn About This AirTag' and 'Instructions to Disable AirTag' do not help. Also, can't hear anything in my apartment when I tried the "Play Sound [...]Today, got two new AirTag detected notifications at 4 an 5 AM. Restarted my iphone and hope it won't come back. Not feel good about this..."

You are welcome.

This happened to me, i searched high and low for an AirTag that was never there. It went away after a week. A trick is to have an android user come and download the tracker detect app and use their phone to see if there’s an AirTag in your vicinity.

Remove the AirTag:

Seems you have an AirTag somewhere. It wouldn't be scared. It is likely stored some where. So, remove it:

1. Go here: If an Item or Device is Connected to Another Apple ID - Apple Support
2. Scroll to: How to remove AirPods, AirTag, or another Find My network item or device from an Apple ID on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
