What is an AirTag? Do you have to buy an AirTag? How do you use an AirTag? I am not a computer person at all so when explaining to me things, please make sure you explain things in detail like talking to a five-year-old. Lol. Although my husband just reminded me that when our grandkids were 5 they used to show us how to do things on the computer and my phone. Ugh! lol

An Apple AirTag, simply is a small coin-shaped device that is designed to help you locate a missing item. For example, I use them with my keys ... which I'm forever forgetting where I left them.
They work in conjunction with an iPhone using the Find My app. This app presents you with a map that shows you the location of the AirTag.
You certainly do NOT have to buy them. There is no requirement that you do. It's really a personal choice, whether or not, they would be helpful to you.
I have bought them to use with my keys. I buy them directly from the Apple online store. It was a personal choice.
Again, you don't have to buy them ... but, if you are interested in doing so, Apple sells them singly or in 4-packs. They are great at helping you locate a missing set of keys or a purse/backpack, or any other stationary product where you may have forgotten where you left them. They are not great for tracking, either people or pets, nor would I recommend doing so.

Thank you very much! If you don’t buy them how do you get them?
You can't get them unless you buy them. You don't have to buy them unless you want or need them for anything. There is nothing that says you need to have an AirTag for any particular purpose.
If you want to track something so it does not get lost and you can easily find it with your iPhone, such as keys, a backpack etc.. you can buy an AirTag and attach it to the item you wish to track.
Thank you very much! If you don’t buy them how do you get them?
