Sew This Life-Saving Hack: Stop Your AirTag from Going Dead in Bed In today’s hyper-connected world, AirTags and similar wearable trackers have become indispensable tools for staying connected—tracking keys, backpacks, pets, and loved ones. But one frustrating issue plagues many users: your AirTag dies in bed, slipping silently from life-saving reach when you need it most. Don’t let your precious tracker shut down unnoticed. Here’s a simple, life-saving hack— Sew this gear into your routine. ### Why Does Your AirTag Go Dead in Bed? AirTags rely on Bluetooth and Apple’s U1 UWB chip, consuming power even when idle. Putting your iPhone—or the AirTag itself—on sleep mode reduces power usage dramatically, but not enough to drain the battery completely over nights, long trips, or when your device is triggered into “Do Not Disturb.” Without active communication, the AirTag enters ultra-low power mode, risking battery depletion or intermittent tracking failures.
