I Lost My AirTag

Just before AirTag 2 was announced, I picked up a first-generation AirTag at a good price. I put them everywhere I could, because you never know when it might come in handy. What a far-sighted decision that turned out to be.

I find myself tracking down my keys like this pretty often... but it never occurred to me that I'd be hunting for a stroller this way. To be precise, the AirTag fell off. It was stuck on, but somehow it came loose and dropped off. At the Children's Hospital, on a Friday. It was pretty hectic there that day.

The case the Tag was in had a 3M sticker on it, so it could have stuck to something... and it did. I don't know what it attached itself to, but when I started looking for it that evening, it showed up in Letohrad! I immediately turned on "Lost Mode". It stayed there the whole weekend. Probably in someone's garden, or maybe on another stroller?

The biggest surprise came on Sunday. The AirTag was on the move! It was heading to Brno and stopped on a street in Řečkovice. Then it stayed put.

I took the little one out for a trip and went to track it down. It was pretty easy to find. It was wrapped in a paper tissue, sitting on a fence post. Most likely someone only noticed it once they got to Brno and left it right where they found it. I turned off "Lost Mode" and hid it in the stroller more cleverly this time, so it won't fall out again.
