To set up an AirTag, you need to enable Bluetooth on your iPhone, which means that the tracking device relies on Bluetooth connectivity, at least when in proximity. This means that the AirTag needs to be within 33 feet or 10 meters, because that is the maximum Bluetooth range of an iPhone. However, you should also remember that Bluetooth connectivity depends on several factors, like walls between the devices. Nevertheless, with a clear line of sight, iPhone’s Bluetooth connection works fine in the range mentioned above.
Now, 33 feet, or 10 meters, is generally considered the range for Class 2 Bluetooth chips, commonly used in Bluetooth headphones, earbuds, and even trackers. To summarize, you can track your AirTag using Bluetooth technology if it’s 10 meters or closer, which should be enough for tracking items indoors. For instance, if you’ve attached an AirTag to your car keys, your iPhone can communicate with the AirTag using Bluetooth. Then, if you have an iPhone 11 or later with a U1 chip, you also have Precision Tracking available as the “Find Nearby” option in the Find My app.
If your AirTag is in the Bluetooth range, you can play a sound via the Find My app to locate it (via osxdaily). The AirTag has a built-in speaker, which is loud enough to grab your attention indoors unless it is under a pile of clothes or sofa cushions.
