How to track where a bag is in HomeAssistant? (piefed.jeena.net)

My son has a bag which he takes with him to Kindergarten every day. I'd like to throw in something like an Apple AirTag to be able to see where the bag is, but I have a couple of requirements:

  • No subscription
  • Should work in South Korea (AirTag does not work here)
  • Sometimes it's me who brings hem to Kindergarten and I have a Android phone, sometimes it's his mom with a iPhone
  • It should be somehow connectable to HomeAssistant as a device tracker to see where the bag is (or at least if it's at home or not)

Any ideas what would work?

By subscription I meant paying periodically, it's not any important functionality that's why I don't want to pay for it all the time. One time is ok.

Totally understand and agree. Just trying to clarify since some people don’t like to create online accounts if they can prevent it. (Kind of with them for the most part)

Since GPS systems would generally require an online account I wanted to specify that.
