AirTags are available in Canada.  $39 each or 4 for $129.

 

 

 

AirTag review: They work great—maybe a little too great

 

Apple made the most privacy-friendly tracker, but that's not saying much.

Amazon partners with Tile to take on Apple AirTags

 

Amazon is beefing up its network of connected devices to take on technologies like Apple’s new AirTags.

 

Amazon announced Friday that it is partnering with Tile, a company that makes trackers for lost items, and Level, which makes smart locks, to use those devices to enhance its tracking network based on Wi-Fi and Bluetooth technology.

 

The strength and number of devices on a given tracking network is key to its accuracy. That’s part of the reason why many think Apple’s tracking network will be so strong since it relies on more than 1 billion iPhones, iPads and Macs to help with lost item tracking.

 

Tile has also been vocal against Apple’s entry into the lost-item tracking space, recently telling Congress that it and other app developers are “afraid” of Apple’s policies for third-party apps and hardware accessories.
