However, an enthusiast from the MacRumors forum under the nickname smythey found a way out. He drilled a hole in the AirTag tracker without damaging the device. You can easily slip a chain or ring into the hole, and then attach the tag to your neck, pet’s neck, a bunch of keys, and so on. According to smythey, the accessory works great, he didn’t notice any problems.
Of course, such manipulation, if you are not careful enough (for example, to move the hole slightly to the center where the circular PCB is located), can damage the search beacon. Well, you will have to forget about the official warranty from the manufacturer.
Earlier, a video with the AirTag parsing process was published on the network. See below.
