How to find out if I have an AirTag hidden in my property?
I’ve been hacked on a device by my x wif. And was just curious. Without downloading the wrong apps.

Hello Zipship,
If you've received a notification that an unknown AirTag has been traveling with you, you can use these steps to locate it:
1. Tap the alert.
2. Tap Continue and then tap Play Sound.
3. Listen for the sound. You can play it again if you need more time to find the item.
If the option to play a sound isn't available, the item might not be with you anymore. Or if it was with you overnight, its identifier might have changed. Find My uses the identifier to determine that it's the same item moving with you. If the item is within range of its owner, you also won't be able to play a sound.
If the unknown accessory is an AirTag and you have a supported iPhone model with Ultra Wideband, you can also tap Find Nearby to use Precision Finding to help you locate the unknown AirTag.
1. Tap the alert.
2. Tap Continue, then tap Find Nearby.
3. Follow the onscreen instructions and move around the space until your iPhone connects to the unknown AirTag.
4. Your iPhone displays the distance and direction to the unknown AirTag. Use that information to get closer to the unknown AirTag until you find it.
• When the AirTag is within Bluetooth range of your iPhone, you can play a sound on the AirTag by tapping the Play Sound button.
• If your iPhone says that more light is required, tap the Turn Flashlight On button.
7. When you're done, tap the Done button.
Cheers!
