Cool. Thank you. I did not know. What about the other tracking devices. The knock off air tags on Amazon. Do they connect to androids or ??

Those just work off Bluetooth and don't connect to any infrastructure. They pair to a single device and then that's it.

I gave some to my mom so she could find her ferrets when they fall asleep in a random place in the house.

They do, but only the phone they pair with. So you can find your keys in your house.

Apple takes advantage of their "ecosystem" and uses all the iphones in the world to create a network of sorts.
