Glad they were so proactive to have a better solution, the app situation was a load of crap. Looked it up and found the setting on my phone and it’s enabled. It appears my AirTag wouldn’t set it off as i have the iPhone with the tag and therefore it is not considered separated. I’ll turn my iPhone off next time I ride my bike to see if that causes it to detect it.
I've definitely seen the alert from Android, with no app installed. I knew about the tags in question however, so it wasn't an issue. It took several hours to notice however. I'd imagine a false positive is a lot more of an issue than false negatives.
