AirGuard VS Silence

That's true for Apple's Tracker Detect app, but any thief could simply use the free and open source AirGuard app, which has more functionality than both Tracker Detect and the AirTag features built into iOS:

https://github.com/seemoo-lab/AirGuard

For example, AirGuard lets the user activate the alarm on any AirTag in range immediately without waiting any period of time. iOS and Tracker Detect only lets the user do this if it determines that the AirTag is following the user, and Tracker Detect adds another 10 minute waiting period for no good reason.

Good time to remind people that AirGuard exists.

Apple doesn't develop the Android OS, it's up to the Android developers to integrate tracking bluetooth low energy devices if they so choose. They could simply integrate the open source project AirGuard, for example.

use something like apple's tracker detect app or airguard (github) to check for other air tags, in case theru was more than one, then follow bigbadbuff's advice.

Yes! https://github.com/seemoo-lab/AirGuard

Not natively. You need to install a specific app, for example:

- https://github.com/seemoo-lab/AirGuard

The beacons should just use BLE. For Android there's an app that lets you detect beacons tracking you. You can check out the source code to see how they parse the packets https://github.com/seemoo-lab/AirGuard

Just tested on P6 Pro with latest GrapheneOS, and it seems it works for me in general. But it seems I am expiriencing this bug: https://github.com/x13a/Silence/issues/189 Which leads to it blocking all calls from unknown numbers ignoring number of calls from it. Cannot prove whether it is it or something else, don't have second phone to call myself now.

Oh no, that's the wrong app. I have no idea what you linked Silence is what is says on my home screen. This is the app I am talking about; https://github.com/x13a/Silence
