Brilliant work Alex! Let's see how they track internationally. I'll email you. 🦘

The poor mailman probably got reminders all the time on his iPhone that someone was tracking him with an AirTag :-)

I mailed myself a letter once to make sure I was getting my mail.

Great concept! Looking forward to the Norway episode

This is the most creative way to test the Airtag. Subscribed for your upcoming video.

Awesome. Not just because of the premise but because you skipped all the stuff people usually do, all the pointless preamble as well, and got straight down to it. Have subscribed.

If you mail it to me in Canada, I'll mail it right back, we can track it around the world!

Great use of Automator. I cannot understand why so many Mac users that I know don’t even know about it.

And what’s crazy is that iOS 14.5 and macOS 11.3 have only been out for less than a week, so this will become even more effective over time as people’s devices are updated.

Very interesting video. Seems like for the relatively low price for the Airtags, that it would be a great way to include one in any expensive package that was shipped, to track its progress.

New subscriber looking forward to the Norway update. This was a great video, thanks for making the effort!

[AmbientWalking]

Nice idea, Alex. Have been very curious about AirTags and this is really a great way to find out.

[SoulSilverIV]

This is a super interesting experiment and totally different, like you said, to everyone else's reviews. Very interesting to see the journey your AirTag took!

Hey! Always fun to see your own hometown in a YouTube video!

[thaboshikwambane]

We don't deserve you lol. This is awesome. Youtube recommended you on my homepage

[RennieAsh]

Well, thanks to this video I found out why Groot is called Groot in GotG : (pronounced [də ˈɣroːt]) is
a surname of Dutch origin. Translating as "the great/big/large/tall" it
originated as a nickname for a big or tall person."

AirTags update when they're near an iDevice, explaining the AirTag teleporting across town and staying there for an hour

[tomroelofs]

This is amazing, curious about the international one!

[joewule]

nice work... simple and interesting... you managed to make findings on 2 things: how the Airtags work and the exhaustive route of mail. I bet the international mail will be incredible.

[JumBoJohnsa]

Amazing to see how effective Airtags are even when iOS 14.5 was released so recently!

Even if Android were to release built in support today for trackers like Tile, I can’t imagine they would be anywhere near as useful for many years due to Android’s huge OS fragmentation
