Apple releases Android app to help find sneaky AirTags, but it is manual scan and can’t actually use AirTags

Apple announced that this app was coming in June, promising that it would allow Android users to find potentially malicious trackers being used without their knowledge. Unlike on iOS, though, it doesn’t seem like this app will constantly do scans in the background and alert you if something is up — it’s purely a manual search. Tracker Detect also doesn’t help you keep track of the AirTags attached to an Apple account, so it’s not helping Android users actually use AirTags.

Good effort in developing such an app for Android, but it does seem to fall short of what the app could have really done.

The app won’t let you use AirTags with Android, though.
