DH can never remember where his car is parked.

Is there a cheap gadget that would tell him his car's location?

People use Iphones for that but he wont set his Iphone when he parks the car. He forgets. We need a gadget that connects to something in the car, that automatically shows location and doesnt have to be set.

If he has an iPhone, why not just get an air tag and leave it in the car

I just watched this youtube video and I have questions.

1. What powers the thing you hide in the car? A battery? Are you alerted when battery is weak?

2. The part you keep with you, goes on a keychain? What do you have to do to determine location of car?

Thanks all.

Thanks all.

Maybe there is a way to check on android? I don’t know

Not sure what you mean about the part that goes with you

You leave it in the car, no parts to remember to carry with you. It tells you the location on your iPhone. Androids have similar stuff, look it up. It has a battery but it lasts very long. Your phone will tell you when the AirTag battery is low.

The keychain is for keeping track of your keys. You can buy a few AirTags and attach one to a keychain so you know where your keys on. But for an AirTag you’re keeping in the car you probably wouldn’t need a keychain.

Do you have to have an Iphone for life if you want to use Airtags?
