That wouldn’t really work for treacking Apple devices since they randomize their MAC addresses. Which is why I’ve added them using private ble integration in HA. It is able to detect their presence (or lack of it) via my ESPHome devices which are set up as Bluetooth proxies. What I would like though is know which room are they in - I have an ESP32 device in pretty much every room, and I wish I could leverage them without adding dedicated ESPresence ones.
