When will the AirTag beep?

If I leave my dog behind wearing an AirTag and I have home set as a non-alert location, will the AirTag still beep because my phone is away from it?

But I will be separated from it. I'll be in Jamaica and my AirTag will be home on my dog.

No.

it will beep when separated from you.

“the AirTag will start playing a sound to let you know it’s there.


Of course, if you happen to be with a friend who has an AirTag, or on a train with a whole bunch of people with AirTag, don’t worry. These alerts are triggered only when an AirTag is separated from its owner.”

“Apple says the AirTag will automatically play a sound if it's been separated from its owner "for an extended period of time," which is currently set at three days.”
