AirTag will not connect to iPhone

Pulled the tab to activate AirTag. Looked like it connected but I can’t find it on my iPhone. It doesn’t appear to be connected at all. Leaving on a trip tomorrow & need help with setup.

When you pulled the tab, did you hear a beep? If not, it could be that the battery in this AirTag is depleted. It really depends on where you got it and how long it may have been sitting on the shelf.


On thing you can still try is to go ahead and open the tag's battery cover, and then, remove and replace the battery. when you place the cover back and press down before rotating it, it again should emit a beep. Does it?
