If you lose things on a daily basis, be that keys, phone, wallet or otherwise, then Apple’s AirTag trackers are well worth considering. Using BlueTooth, these nifty little devices help you locate anything you want by sticking the tags on them. The biggest hindrance is usually the price but as part of Walmart Plus Week, they are now down to $80. This is a $20 saving that is only available for the next 24 hours; however, they are also available at Amazon at the same $80 price point too.
AirTags are some of our favorite item trackers, and they work seamlessly with your iPhone and the Find My app with a simple one-tap pairing process. You can then throw a tracker into a pocket as it is, or grab an AirTag accessory to clip them to keys, hook them onto a bag, stick them to your bike or attach them to anything else you want to keep tabs on.
Watch this: Apple AirTags made a good small impression
Once set up, the AirTags will show up in the Find My app and display your items on a map so you can easily find them. If an item is in your vicinity, you can use the app to play a sound on the AirTag’s tiny speaker to help you find it, and use the Precision Finding feature to be guided to your lost possession. This is handy if you’re just looking for your keys or wallet around the house, for example. If you lose an item farther afield, you can put it in Lost Mode, which will then ping you if the AirTag is detected on the Find My network and allow you to add a message and include your phone number or email address.

Each AirTag is powered by a CR2032 coin battery, four of which are included with your purchase. The batteries last around a year before you need to replace them. AirTags are IP67 water- and dust-resistant too, so you don’t have to worry about them getting damaged if they’re exposed to the elements.
