Family share the airtag

Hi,


I share my location with my wife and she does the same with me. We have the family setting activated. I would like to share my airtag with my wife. How can I do that?


Thanks

Sorry, but AirTags are not designed to be shared.


One option, which you will not like, would be to have her get her own AirTag and associate it with her Apple ID. You can then leave both in the same car. The biggest disadvantage of this is whichever AirTag is "away" from its owner will start beeping to alert the other person (or a third-party) that there is an AirTag present that would be "following" them. Not ideal either. A solution to that would be to only use your AirTag when driving the car, and then, have her only use her's when she's driving.


The bottom line? You may have to explore other AirTag-like solutions out there. Good luck!
