Apple’s April 2021 Event: All the Little Things
Apple events are always packed with little details that don’t make it into the main presentation or are easy to miss in the flurry of announcements. Some tidbits are buried in footnotes, while others are tucked into word clouds on Keynote slides or in release notes. Today’s event was no exception, so after having a chance to dig in a little deeper, here is an assortment of details about what Apple announced.
Note: you can also check out our standalone overviews for the new iPad Pro, iMac, Apple TV, and AirTags with more details about each product.
Apple's cheapest product of this week's big new hardware showcase was arguably its most interesting, with AirTags finally delivering the much-anticipated launch
You attach the tag to, say, a handbag, keys or backpack, and it links to Apple s Find My app.
Users can view the item’s current or last-known location on a map. If a user misplaces their item and it is within Bluetooth range, they can use the Find My app to play a sound from the AirTag to help locate it. Users can also ask Siri to find their item, and AirTag will play a sound if it is nearby.
If the AirTag is separated from its owner and out of Bluetooth range, the Find My network can help to track it down.
