Published in Science & Technology News

The KeyBudz Covert Mount for AirTag is a heavy-duty mount for Apple AirTag accessories. If you're not familiar with an AirTag, it's a small, inexpensive tracking device made by Apple. The Apple Find My app can tell you the location of the AirTag.

With the KeyBudz, the AirTag sits inside, adding a layer of durability. It is perfect for active lifestyle uses since it can withstand extreme outdoor elements. It is crafted from a hardwearing fiberglass-reinforced copolymer and has an IP-68 waterproof rating. The rating allows it to withstand rain showers, splashes on beach and poolside, and even being submerged underwater for over 60 days, which KeyBudz states is the only AirTag mount that can do this.

It has a tamperproof lid design, a black exterior, and 3M VHB adhesive for a permanent hold on wherever you attach it. This includes use at construction sites, motorcycles, bicycles, camping gear, surfboards, golf carts, metal, glass and low-energy plastics.

AirTags uses CR2032 replaceable button batteries, which should last for about a year.

Rolling Square, a Swiss-based tech company, has new tracking devices: the AirNotch Pro and AirCard Pro. Both track and find any object from any device on Apple's Find My and Google Find My Device networks.

The keyring-designed AirNotch Pro is built with two internal dual buzzers, which produce 360-degree sound. The tracker buzzer can be activated through either Apple or Google apps, making it ideal for finding things like keys, which are often misplaced. The sound can also be activated by asking Siri or Google to promote the beeping sound.

It is constructed with two premium ABS plastic shells, a sturdy CNC machine anodized aluminum frame and custom gaskets. Its IP-68 waterproof rating enables it to withstand extreme conditions. A robust aluminum hook lets you connect it directly to the accessory you need to be tracked.

The AirNotch Pro has two inserts that glow in the dark. A pair of replaceable CR2032 button batteries power the AirNotch Pro, which has been tested to last up to 20 months. A metal ring is included to open the battery compartment and easily replace the batteries.

 

The AirCard Pro is designed to fit in your wallet and appear on Apple's Find My and Google networks. It's built with a rechargeable battery that needs a wireless charge once every 14 months.

According to the Rolling Square site, it has an ultra-thin 0.09-inch profile, less than two credit cards. It is crafted to be the most resistant tracker on the market, with two robust 9H anti-explosion glass sheets encasing the electronic components mounted on the CNC-machined, anodized aluminum frame.

Each AirCard Pro also has a QR code for a unique digital identity and an IP66 water—and dust-resistant rating.

No more leaving your wallet or keys behind. The AirCard Pro and the AirNotch Pro have left behind reminders and anti-tracking notifications with the Apple Find My network. This gives you instant notifications if you leave one of the devices behind.

AirCard Pro comes in a white version that works with Google Find My Device and a black model that works with Apple's Find My Network.

The Air Card Pro and Air Notch Pro are available for pre-order with special pricing on the Rolling Square site and are expected to ship in December. The Air Notch Pro and the Air Card Pro are each $29, or both for $54.
