Tracker Tags and FindMy
Many people mistakenly place their trust in features such as Apple’s Find My or tracker tags, believing these tools can prevent their phones from being stolen.
In reality, their effectiveness in protecting devices is extremely limited. By the time users attempt to locate their phone using these features, the device has often already been taken away. Experienced thieves frequently switch the phone off or remove tracker tags to prevent the device from being located. Even if the phone continues to transmit its location, it is unlikely that the police will actively assist victims in recovering the device.
