I’m in a strange situation: one iPhone is repeatedly asking (for days now) to set up a new AirTag.

The thing: there is no „blank“ AirTag in the house. All AirTags are set up and working fine, but this one iPhone thinks otherwise.

Tapping „connect“ in the popup just leads to a never-succeeding „connecting“ screen. Rebooting, etc. doesn’t help.

No other Apple devices, including other iPhones, in the household are showing this behavior.

Note that this is about the setup screen, not the stalking alert feature.
