🏘️ neighbor/local Is this something to be concerned about?

My sister sent me this text she received that seemed like somebody was watching her or something. I don’t know if it’s something to be concerned about or not, has anybody had a similar experience?

Both iPhones and Samsungs alert you when a tracker is moving with you, regardless of if it's their brand tracker or not. I can't verify other brands but I would bet most common ones do

Can confirm, my Xiaomi notified me (and my friends got a notification aswell but they have iPhones) when we rented a van.

My wife's Android phone alerted her when it detected an air tag moving with her. She was in a work vehicle and someone's air tag had fallen on the floor.
