Whether you’re a frequent traveler or constantly losing things, you should invest in an Apple AirTag. This compact tracking device will help you locate your missing checked luggage, car keys or even your pet’s collar. However, you’ll probably need something to hold your AirTag and attach it to your item. We narrowed down the huge variety of key rings and cases to only the best Apple AirTag accessories.
You don’t always need an accessory to use an Apple AirTag. In some cases, you can just chuck the tag into whatever you want to keep track of, like your purse or backpack. In some cases, an attachment would work better, like with keys or a laptop bag where you don’t want items to move around too much. If you want to stick your AirTag onto an object, plenty of AirTag mounts are available.
Note that CNET editors have tried most but not all these accessories. If we haven’t tried a product, we’ve tested other accessories from those companies, so we feel comfortable recommending these. We’ll be adding more Apple AirTag accessories to the list as we test new products.

One of the best AirTag accessories, Belkin’s Secure Holder for AirTags comes in key-ring or strap versions in four color options. There’s nothing terribly fancy about them, but at $13, they both cost less than Apple-branded options shown below. You can also get a two-pack for $20.

Apple’s Loop, made for attaching your AirTag to a bag, costs as much as an AirTag. But it’s Apple’s official loop option and this polyurethane option is cheaper than the leather $35 Leather Loop. (That doesn’t make it a good deal, but I’m just pointing it out.) It’s available in four different colors.

Moment, which makes and sells photo and video accessories for Apple products, including lens attachments, will have an enclosure accessory that allows you to mount your Apple AirTag. “Made from a rugged aramid fiber shell and backed with a super strong adhesive, you can stick an AirTag to any flat surface,” Moment says.
Moment also has the Stretch Fabric Mount for AirTags ($25) that’s designed to stick to fabrics, such as the inside of a bag, and other flat surfaces.
Watch this: Apple AirTags made a good small impression
