The Moto Tag is an AirTag for Android

Motorola’s tracking tag is officially here, and if you’ve wanted an AirTag for your Android phone, this new Moto Tag might be it. This item tracker costs $29 and works with Google’s newly upgraded Find My Device network to help you locate a lost item. In addition to Bluetooth, it also offers ultra wideband, which means that if your phone is equipped with a UWB chip — like the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra — you can track down the tag’s precise location. You know, just like you can with an AirTag.

The Moto Tag comes with an IP67 rating, so it should survive a dunk in fresh water. The tag is powered by a CR2032 coin cell battery and should last a full year before it needs a new one. And in the event that you have your tag on hand but can’t find your phone, pressing a button on the Moto Tag will ring your phone to help you find it. The multifunction button can also be used as a remote shutter for your Motorola phone’s camera.

It also seems that the Moto Tag will work with cases designed to hold an AirTag; according to Motorola’s press release, the tag was “designed specifically to fit perfectly with most third-party accessories already on the market so that users can easily attach it to all their valuables.”

There you go — AirTag, but make it Android. The Moto Tag will go on sale on August 2nd; you can buy one for $29 or a four-pack for $99.
