Apple develops upgraded AirTag 2 with improved range and privacy features

Apple is developing a second generation of its AirTag item tracker, expected to launch in mid-2025. The new model will feature significant upgrades, including improved range, a better wireless chip, and enhanced privacy measures. The upgraded AirTag will reportedly allow tracking from 30-90 meters, compared to the current 10-30 meters. The new wireless chip aims to improve location accuracy, especially in less populated areas. Apple plans to enhance anti-stalking features to help users locate unwanted AirTags more easily. The current AirTag is available for $23 individually or $69.99 for a four-pack.
