Airtags and other Bluetooth trackers, like the Samsung Galaxy Smart Tag or Tile, are great if, like me, you have a knack for losing your valuables. But they need to be carefully controlled too. They're amazing for finding lost devices which unfortunately means that in the hands of the wrong people, they've also been used for nefarious purposes. Luckily an Android feature, first announced at Google I/O 2023, is now here. It won't just be hitting the best Android phones either, with any device running Andriod 6.0 or later compatible.
So how exactly will we be protected from stalking? A brand new Unknown Tracker Alerts feature will notify you if a tracker that you don't own is travelling with you. You'll even be able to follow how far it has been with you and get it to play a sound to holler and give its position away.
