This AirTag Upgrade Is Perfect for Keeping Track of Your Most-Used EDC

Apple’s AirTags are brilliant because they help keep track of your stuff. You can attach the button-sized tracker to your bag, bike or even your pet’s collar and, after a quick peek of the Find My app, you can locate it at any given moment. 

But AirTags aren’t perfect. They lack a built-in loop or clip and thus need an accessory to attach it to anything. They run on a CR2032 battery that you have to replace every year.

And they’re too bulky to practically stick in a wallet — which is the EDC you probably need the most help keeping track of.

Enter the Nomad Tracking Card. It’s a credit card sized tracker that works almost identically to an AirTag. It supports Apple’s Find My network and even has a tiny speaker that you can trigger to emit a sound to help you find it.

Just slip it into your wallet and whenever misplaced, simply pop open the Find My app on your iPhone.

The only real downside is that the Nomad Tracking Card lacks an Ultra Wide Band chip and doesn’t support Precision Tracking (which helps guide you to an AirTag’s exact location when within 150 feet).

But it does have other advantages — most notably a rechargeable battery that works with any Qi or MagSafe charger.

In a nutshell, it’s the perfect AirTag alternative for your wallet.
