This article will provide you with the detailed steps to repair your AirTag to help you quickly fix the issue of lost contact with your AirTag. With a simple operation, you can re-establish the connection between your AirTag and your device, ensuring safe tracking of your items.
In our daily lives, AirTag has become our go-to tool for tracking important items. However, there are times when we encounter a loss of contact between the AirTag and the device, and we need to re-pair it. Below, we will give you a detailed introduction to the steps of AirTag repairing, so that you can easily solve the problem.
1. Confirm device compatibility.
First, make sure your device is compatible with your AirTag. AirTag is required to run with iOS 145 or later iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. For Android users, you'll need to use an NFC-enabled device and "find" the app.
2. Prepare to re-match.
Before you start re-pairing, make sure that both your AirTag and device are fully charged and close to each other. Also, make sure that your iCloud account is logged in on your device.
3. Reset your AirTag
If your AirTag is paired with another device, you'll need to reset it first. Here's how to reset it:
Open the Find My app
In the "Items" tab, find the AirTag that needs to be reset
Tap the name of your AirTag, then tap Remove Item
Confirm the removal.
4. Re-pair your AirTag
Once the reset is complete, you can start pairing your AirTag again. Follow these steps:
Hold your AirTag close to your device;
Open the Find My app and tap Add Item
Select "Add AirTag";
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the pairing process;
Once successful, you can set a name and icon for your AirTag for later recognition.
5. Test the AirTag function.
After the re-pairing is complete, be sure to test whether the function of the AirTag is working properly. You can try separating your Airtag from your device and then see if you can pinpoint the location of your Airtag in the Find My app. If the location is accurate and the connection is stable, the re-pairing is successful.
