I don't know the cost of AirTags 00:50:26 Chris Taylor: Gawd… "AirTags" and "Using" 00:51:03 Jocelyn Doire: understood, thanks, not enough range to help someone with Alzheimer 00:52:11 Tom Trottier: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OfxlSG6q5Y - The Antique Toaster that's Better than Yours 00:52:44 Chris Taylor: Other than the possibility of crowd sourcing - it is something Tile promotes - where anyone who is a Tile user can detect and report on location of other Tiles. You can then ask a website for location info on your Tiles 00:54:04 Stew Bruce: I have read of people using air tags to track shipments so it is possible they use more than bluetooth. The apple app for android uses BT but that doesn't mean your seniors use case may not work. 01:02:57 Chris Taylor: I always caution people about "tune-up" utilities. A lot of snake-oil out there! 01:07:49 Chris Taylor: @Stew - according to Wikipedia - AirTags only use Bluetooth. But, like Tile, AirTags can report to any apple devices and then you can get reports on any Apple devices that detected your AirTag. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AirTag#:~:text=AirTags%20are%20not%20satellite%20navigation,devices%20out%20in%20the%20world. 01:09:44 Stew Bruce: @Chris So it is a short range radio, networked.? 01:09:57 Tom Trottier: Chromium browsers like Opera, Iron, Edge, …. can use the Chrome add-ins store 01:10:02 Chris Taylor: @Bob Herres - it looks like AirTags start at $39 from Apple Canada https://www.apple.com/ca/airtag/?afid=p238%7CsHerVcuo9-dc_mtid_1870765e38482_pcrid_516126799411_pgrid_124945403007_&cid=aos-ca-kwGO-btb--slid---product- 01:11:25 Chris Taylor: Or you can save $1 by buying at Amazon :-) https://www.amazon.ca/New-Apple-AirTag-1-Pack/dp/B0933BVK6T/ref=asc_df_B0933BVK6T/ 01:12:30 Tom Trottier: WOW! 01:13:24 Chris Taylor: @Stew - as far as I can see, they will just make a Bluetooth connection. Then the device that connected to it (phone, presumably) reports the location and AirTag ID. 01:13:27 E O'Driscoll: Great info. How does the ad blocker for YouTube work? So, you're watching a video on YouTube and it stops the ad from loading/interrupting the video? I was wondering if ads were part of the videos... Hard to tell which YouTube videos have ads. 01:13:29 Bob Herres: Stewart posted some nifty Air Tag Package Tracking video.... with some imagination, Sounds like a lot of fun for $39 01:13:52 Lawrence Patterson: Thank you Bob, well done once again. 01:15:01 faber ichelle’s iPad: Thank you Bob.
