I took amtrak from Chicago to DC recently and my phone was constantly trying to tell me I was being followed/tracked cause someone else in the sleeper car had an airtag.
How can I get my Android to stop notifying me about a specific AirTag? I searched quite a bit and couldn't figure it out.
I get these unwanted alerts every time my wife and I travel with luggage that she's placed AirTags into. I guess my phone thinks the owner isn't present because she doesn't have an iPhone. We both have Android phones, and she also has an iPad which she used to configure the AirTags but it's normally turned off.
Edit: I think I misread that. When you see an AirTag popup, you can choose to ignore it for the day or forever. That's from my recollection. I haven't seen one in ages.
3.13. Disablement
The accessory SHALL have a way to be disabled such that its future
locations cannot be seen by its owner. Disablement SHALL be done via
some physical action (e.g., button press, gesture, removal of
battery, etc.).

3.13.1. Disablement instructions
The accessory manufacturer SHALL provide both a text description of
how to disable the accessory as well as a visual depiction (e.g.
image, diagram, animation, etc.) that MUST be available when the
platform is online and OPTIONALLY when offline. Disablement
procedure or instructions CAN change with accessory firmware updates.
These are provided as part of the onboarding process (Section 7).
Yes. Physical access would likely be needed for most of these devices and would be sufficient for satisfying the RFC, based on the examples in section 3.13.
So you might get a notification of a device "following" you because I have a tracker in my bag but no phone (or my phone is off, perhaps; or maybe it's just malfunctioning and mis-reporting as happens sometimes). You play the sound and find out it's in the bag underneath your seat on the bus, but that's my bag. You could attempt to rifle through it and take my tracker and disable it, but I'd probably stop you.
It does. Their instructions for disabling AirTags shows you how to remove their battery. That's a good thing: you shouldn't be able to remotely disable someone else's tracker.
Thankfully most everything lily-go throws on their boards is pretty generic and generally adafruit has an equivalent feather wing or some such, and you can use their documentation to figure out how to get your lily-go stuff working with a bit of time spent cross referencing schematics and code.
