The Apple AirTags is a circular-shaped small size tracker. It can be customised by the user with free engraving including text and 31 emojis. The rear side of the AirTags has an Apple logo.

The Apple AirTags is powered by CR2032 battery unit that is also user-removable. The Bluetooth tracking device doesn’t store any location data and it uses end-to-end encryption.
