Apple AirTag: When to replace battery, which one to avoid and how to change – Times of India

Apple AirTag doesn’t come with a rechargeable battery and it is powered by the commonly found CR2032 lithium 3V coin battery. Depending on the usage, you may be required to change the battery of the AirTag once every year. While CR2032 batteries are easily found, Apple has now mentioned in its support page that CR2032 batteries with bitterant coatings might not work with AirTag. Bitterant coatings are applied to hazardous substances like batteries to prevent children or pets from swallowing them.
How to check battery life of Apple AirTag

  • Open the Find My app.
  • Tap the Items tab.
  • Tap the AirTag whose battery charge you want to check.
  • Check the battery icon under the name of the AirTag.
  • If the charge is very low, you’ll see a banner that says Low Battery.

How to change the battery of Apple AirTag

  • Press down on the polished stainless steel battery cover of your AirTag and rotate counterclockwise until the cover stops rotating.
  • Remove the cover and battery.
  • Insert a new CR2032 lithium 3V coin battery (available at most electronic and drug stores) with the positive side facing up. You’ll hear a sound indicating that the battery is connected.
  • Replace the cover, making sure that the three tabs on the cover align with the three slots on the AirTag.
  • Rotate the cover clockwise until it stops.
