Elevation Lab, known for its range of accessories for Apple devices, today announced the launch of the TagVault Strap, a new case that's designed for the AirTag.
The TagVault Strap is designed to mount to a backpack or camera strap, and it has been created to prevent the AirTag from being removed. The TagVault Strap is made from a glass-filled composite body, and it uses Swiss machined self-driving screws that go through the strap.
It comes with all the hardware needed, and it features an all-black design that keeps it from grabbing attention. The TagVault Strap is also waterproof, so it keeps the AirTag protected even in less than ideal conditions.

Apple today announced a new subscription initiative that turns paid iCloud+ subscriptions into a broader services bundle in more than 100 countries.
In select countries, Apple says every paid iCloud+ plan, including the cheapest 50GB tier, now includes Apple TV and Apple Arcade "at no additional cost," while family sharing extends the storage, TV and Arcade access to up to five people....
Cool idea, but seems like you could just cut the strap if you stole a backpack. I wonder how much force is needed to pry it free. If only I had a YouTube channel...
AirTag is NOT an anti theft device. Apple intentionally made it so that it will notify the thief if there is an AirTag that is moving with him.
A drill will disable any AirTag, a 1/8 inch hole kills them.
AirTags are only useful if you misplace the item, not if it is intentionally stolen.
Have to say am a bit interested in something like this.
They just announced they were launching it. "today announced the launch of the TagVault Strap"
We're you joking here or did you get one before the launch somehow?
They already sell the same thing as a pet accessory ('https://smile.amazon.com/TagVault-Pet-Waterproof-Ultra-Durable-Collars/dp/B09DQSK52B/ref=sr_1_7?crid=1OBRPYQ99AEWU&keywords=AirTag+holder+pet+collar+screw+on&qid=1662665555&sprefix=airtag+holder+pet+collar+screw+on%2Caps%2C157&sr=8-7'). I tried it and wasn't impressed. The back plastic plate seemed pretty flimsy.
For the screws, I’d recommend either Loctite Red or SuperGlue. Because otherwise, those are some pretty common screws. (Would be nice if they were reverse-threaded — that might be confusing to some crooks).
As I just wrote an another reply, AirTags are NOT anti theft devices. They are so easy to disable, bash them with a rock or drill a 1/8 hole. Not only that but they notify the thief that he is being tracked, so you can't hide them. AirTags are for if you misplace the item not for recovering stolen property. Put one on your dog if you think it might run off.
