TheiOS 14update is expected to be announced on Monday atWWDC 2020, and a new leak suggests we may be getting a dedicatedApple AirTagsapp as part of the new software.
AirTags are rumored location tracking devices that you can attach to your belongings and then use your phone to monitor their location. Think of it as a way to keep an eye on your keys or purse.
New leaks suggest thatApplewill be using a dedicated app for this functionality, but it’s not entirely clear yet if it will land as part of a lateriOS 13 updateor the upcoming iOS 14.
Two separate leaks provided this information, one from leaker @blue_kanikama that shared some details on the marketing of the devices, as you can see below.
