How Does the "Unknown Tracker Alerts" Work?
In a world that's growing increasingly connected, the potential for misuse of technology has escalated. Devices like Apple's AirTags, designed to help users keep track of their belongings, can potentially be misused to track people without their consent. Recognizing this potential breach of privacy, Samsung developed the "Unknown Tracker Alerts" feature. This function notifies Galaxy users if an unknown tracker, such as an AirTag, seems to be moving along with them, potentially indicating a breach of privacy or safety.
