Honest Review ... Item Locator.

I purchased "tile", "TrackR" and "nut" to find out how easy it is to setup. Basically, their are all the same and not too difficult to setup if you know your way around your Phone App.

Then I started to wonder how it can communicate where it is to your App. So I decided to leave one of the device in the car and started my morning walk. About a mile out, I open the app to see if I can find the device.

NO ... The app could not find the device.
What is the point of that?

Then when I finished my walk (getting near the car), app finally found the device. (about 80 feet away). The I realized the device can only communicate with your phone via bluetooth. So if you loose your keychain and you walked away more than 80 ~ 100, this device will not help you find it.

App may remember where was synced last but that toes not mean anything. In my case, App thought the device was somewhere else. So the device is good for loosing keychain in the house or office. Not in the public places or outside.

This is what I found on the tile site.

How does Tile work?

Tile uses Bluetooth radio waves to communicate with the companion app on your phone or tablet. The Tile app "discovers" a Tile using the Bluetooth signal and then uses the location services of the device to update the location information for that Tile.

Your Tile can be discovered by your phone or tablet from up to 100ft., which is the standard range for Bluetooth.


Is it not going to locate your lost pet. I do not call pet lost if it is within 100 feet.
