- Apple is developing a Tile-like system called AirTags that you can attach to items you might misplace, according to MacRumors.
- The AirTags are designed to help you find an AirTagged item you've misplaced using the Bluetooth connection on your iPhone. It'll also use the iPhone 11's U1 ultra-wide-band chip that could offer more precise tracking.
- Longer-range tracking with AirTags could use the crowd-sourcing feature in iOS 13 that relies on the Bluetooth connection from other Apple devices.
- It's suggested that Apple may reveal its AirTags by the end of the year.
