AirTag only shows last seen at home not where it actually is when away from home
iPhone (2)
As stated previously, the location of the AirTag can only update when there is a phone nearby. The AirTag is not a device that has GPS tracking built in and has to rely on a bluetooth connection to a phone that does have the GPS capability. When you see a location that says "17 minutes ago", then that is because there was a device within about 30 feet of your daughter that transmitted the location at that time. If you are looking for real time tracking, it would be better to put a phone in her backpack with the sound turned off to avoid distractions. Since she is only 5, you could put a luggage lock on a zipper inside the backpack.
So basically, these are useless for putting on dogs if they get lost or anything that gets out of your position since my dog won’t have an expensive iPhone with Bluetooth in her back pocket
Agreed...my luggage updates constantly, but the one on my dog does not.
Has anyone found a solution?
