Hi!

I recently got an AirTag warning on a 3 hour trip on a long distance train, I traveled almost 500km with.

For me that was great, as I had a real world example for the app working. Also, because I got no further warnings after the train ride, I am quite sure, that this was not a malicious tracking attack on me, but a fellow traveler sitting nearby probably had an active airtag for her or his own purposes.

As an alarm warning can be a little bit intimidating in the moment when I receive it, making the connection, that it was during a train journey together with strangers, took a few moments. Maybe a hint to this idea could be incorporated into the alarm message or the guidelines regarding "false alarms"?

Although we are after two years of pandemic only getting used to it, but I guess long distance travel on busses, trains and maybe planes would be a usual reason for triggering false alarms?

Thanks Patrick for this contribution and your real-world example. I agree we could do a lot better in wording here. I'll add this to our feature log to improve in this area.
