    I just airtagged my dogs - they’re escapers. Set it up with my husband’s iPhone. I scanned a tag with my android and it gave me the option to erase the tag. Doesn’t that defeat the purpose of the tag?

      I have an airtag and an android phone and I’ve seen no such prompt. Mind taking a screenshot please?

        The instructions are just to remove the battery, which i guess is kind of obvious.

          Yeah so you can stop people tracking you. But you can’t reset it to become ‘yours’ without the original login.

            Ah. Yeah. I think i read about people being tracked. It seems like they make it easy to steal a bag and turn off the tracker, but i guess they could also just throw it away, so it’s the same.
