You're using your AirTag to keep track of your keys, luggage, or maybe even your pet hamster's adventures (don't judge!). Suddenly, you get that notification: "AirTag Battery Low." Don't panic! Replacing the battery is a breeze. Here's your quick guide to get back to tracking in a flash.
What You Need:
- A fresh CR2032 battery: You can usually find these at grocery stores, drugstores, or electronics stores.
- Your AirTag (of course!): Hopefully, you know where this is... otherwise, you might need its tracking abilities more than a new battery!
How to Replace the Battery:
- Find the shiny, silver side of your AirTag. This is the side with the Apple logo.
- Press down on the cover and rotate it counterclockwise until you feel it release. You don't need any tools for this – just your fingers!
- Remove the old battery. It's time to say goodbye (and maybe recycle it properly).
- Insert the new CR2032 battery, making sure the positive (+) side faces up. You should hear a little chime letting you know it's connected.
- Align the three tabs on the cover with the three slots on the AirTag.
- Press down on the cover and rotate it clockwise until it locks into place.
And that's it! You've successfully replaced your AirTag battery.
A Few Extra Tips:
- Don't force it! If the cover isn't twisting easily, double-check your alignment.
- Keep track of your battery's lifespan. AirTags typically last about a year on a single battery, but usage can vary. Your iPhone will give you plenty of warning when it's time for a swap.
Now you're back in the tracking game! Go forth and keep tabs on your valuables (or adventurous hamsters) with confidence.
