It’s easy to misplace your glasses case or briefcase, what about forgetting where you parked the car or a fear that your bike will be stolen? I’m sure you wish that all items had a “find your iPhone” kind of thing to them. Where you just press a button and it starts beeping so you can find it. What if I told you there was a way to track down these items using your phone? That sounds pretty great, doesn’t it? Well this has been made a reality with the product called the Tile.
The Tile is what it sounds like, a small tile-shaped object that you can put in or on almost anything. But it’s what you can do with this small little tile that’s so amazing. The Tile uses Bluetooth technology and through an app can tell you exactly where the item in question is. It’s exactly like a “find my iPhone”, only for literally everything else that you seem to lose and can’t remember what you did with it.
The Tile has a small hole in it that you can use to put on a keychain or on a bag or anything like that if needed. You then download the app onto your smartphone and you can view a dot on a map that shows you where your item is, or alternatively you can “ring” it, and it will make a noise so you can locate it. Unfortunately, this only works within a 100-foot range, but this is great for if you know you left it somewhere near but can’t quite remember where exactly you put it.
Alternatively, if you have actually lost your phone, the Tile allows you to call your phone so you can find that. It’s pretty much just a win-win.
The Tile also has this really cool feature called community find where you can ask others to help you find yoru missing item. You can “expand” your search to the Tile community. Basically this means that anyone who has the Tile app who comes in range of your phone with be able to receive it and then will send you a notification of its location. This is kept totally private, so no one actually knows you’re searching for a lost item.
Retailing at just $25 per Tile, this device is the newest and coolest way to locate your missing things. You can purchase Tiles from the company’s official website and you can also find it on Amazon. It’s easy to use, straightforward and will save you tons of money in lost items that you potentially would need to buy again. We love how versatile it is and how it can go on just about anything. Do yourself a favor and save hours of your life NOT needing to search for your keys. Visit the official website for more Information.
