Motorola has introduced a new smart tracker designed to compete with Apple AirTags for Android users. Named the Moto Tag, this device features Ultra Wideband (UWB) technology and integrates with Google's network, making it easier to locate tagged items.
Moto Tag: Key Features
Motorola's Moto Tag boasts enhanced precision due to its support for UWB tech, which can be leveraged by smartphones that also include this technology, such as the Edge 50 Ultra. Although integration with the Find My Device app isn't available at launch, it is expected in a forthcoming update. The Moto Tag features a circular design with a multifunction button, similar to the Apple AirTag.
This button can ring a paired smartphone and even take photos remotely. Privacy is a major focus for Motorola, as the Moto Tag uses end-to-end encryption on the Google Find My Device network, ensuring that your location data stays private. For added security, the device can alert users about any unknown tracker and offers manual scanning options. The Moto Tag is also durable, with an IP67 rating for water and dust resistance.
Easy Setup and Long Battery Life
Setting up the Moto Tag is straightforward thanks to Google Fast Pair, and the accompanying Moto Tag app provides features such as battery monitoring and alert volume control. Motorola claims the device has a battery life of up to a year, and the CR2032 battery cell is replaceable. The Moto Tag will be available in select markets at a price of 29 US Dollars for one, or 99 US Dollars for a pack of four. It comes in two color options: Blue and Green. The smart tracker is scheduled for release on August 2, 2024.
