Air Tag as a vehicle tracker

[Pine]

Would an Air Tag work as a vehicle tracker if I left one in my car?

If you've got a spare one give it a go

And report back

I believe airtags incorporate specific features to prevent their use to track people without their knowledge. This includes alerting any nearby iphones that aren't the tag owner's, and also playing a sound. So any thief is likely to know they are being tracked, which presumably will persuade them to find and destroy the tracker, or dump/torch the car.
