Context

Written in 2022. Read it as a prediction from that moment, not a current-news update.

Apple introduced it's Tile competitor a few weeks ago - Airtag! Super cool product in my opinion.

TLDR - track your items now on the same app as 'Find my Friends'. So now your keys / backpack / camera will show up on there just like your other devices do.

Clearly, attaching the Airtag device to a pair of keys will help you 'lose them less' intuitively (Apple says ‘Lose your knack for losing things’ with tracking!)

2 interesting factors (confounding) that will also play a role in people 'losing their keys less' with the Airtag:

  • We've now attached a cool Apple product to our keys so we'll be more mindful of where they are perhaps?
  • No more loose keys in your pockets! You need a keychain to use the Airtag --> keychains themselves keep things organized

Charts on this

  • iPhone prices rose 134%. The US basket rose 62%.
  • Apple's China Revenue Share Never Recovered Its 2015 Peak
  • iPhones Made In India Went From 6% To A Quarter In Three Years
  • China Assembles The iPhone And Keeps 3.6% Of Its Value
