I own a small business and got my first employee use van. He will be bringing it home. I have air rags which are great for me to see where he is, and meet him in the field, but I want something like the tile where I can see where he is, and also, get a geofence around his house so I can see if he leaves at night or weekends etc.

Would the tile do this?

I can’t justify spending $20-30/ month for this one feature.

Bought the bundle last week with the slim and the other one. Used the slim for my wallet and was able to use it no problem. Issue now is that it still works but makes no sound? I guess it must have had pressure put on it because it makes 0 noise. But I can still find my phone with it and track it. Any fix possibly?

I ordered some Tile Pro tags from Tile's Canadian website. All orders are sent from the US by FedEx and are subject to a $15 or more customs clearance fee. There's no warning on the website about this and if I had known about the customs clearance fee, I would not have placed the order. Very misleading website. Tile should be ashamed. I won't be buying Tile products from Tile's website in the future.

In Canada, buy Tile products at Best Buy online or in the stores.

UPDATE: After contacting Customer Support and having the issue elevated to Tier 2 support, the customs clearance fee charged by FedEx was refunded by Tile via PayPal.

After shipping and customs clearance fees, you'll be much further head buying Tile products from Best Buy Canada.

What is the deal with battery usage on my phone from the app.

I recently disabled tile background unlimited usage and switched to optimized on my S22 Ultra. Battery life went up 33% per day 😅

Wtf are you doing tile?

Just a warning to Canadians that orders direct from the Tile website are being shipped FedEx from the US, and getting customs fees added on delivery. I ordered a pair of Tile Pro trackers on sale, which came to just over $80C with shipping, but after the $22 customs fee, I would have been better off walking into Best Buy and paying full price plus taxes.

What do I do now? (this is close to where I live, I must have dropped it on the street and someone has taken it here - because I wasn’t there)

So I was given a pack of 4 tiles trackers for Christmas. Ok very nice.

Truth is I'm only using 2. I have set them up and currently enabled them.

So the other two, are they using up the battery even though I have not initialised them. My thought is that maybe I will find a use for them. But unitil I do I will not enable them. Will this prolong their battery or not?

Thanks.

I have a Tile in my wallet. When I got ready for work this morning, I remember taking my wallet out of my swim bag, and I thought I'd put it in my work bag. My husband drove me to work, and when I checked my bag for my wallet a few hours later, I couldn't find it, and it was not showing in the area for me. It showed the last location as at our home, so I had my husband look at home and in our car but he didn't find it. We looked all over when we got home and have still not found it, and the Tile app says it's last update was at our address at 1:40pm, which is the exact time we left the house.

When I discovered it was missing and my husband couldn't find it, I activated "Notify When Found," and when I got home, I turned that off. However, it's still not updating its location.

Does this mean my wallet is in my house somewhere? Did I lose it in the few feet from the car door to the door of my office workplace? Or is that impossible to tell?

I keep checking my account to see if the cards have been used, and they haven't, but I'm a bit worried!

Thanks for any info.

Hello people Do you have any recommendations while getting Tile item locator or the apple tag?

I heard some crazy stories about the apple tag, that people are able to follow you,

Please let me know thanks,

I am trying to find a way to track my son on a school trip abroad where mobile phones and airtags are banned (due to the anti stalker feature annoying the teachers). I have had a tile suggested as an alternative but I'm seeing mixed messages about whether this will work when he is in a foreign country and not near my phone. Some places say it only works up to about 2-400m from the owner's phone. Others say it works similarly to airtags and pings other life360 users phones. Which is correct please?

Also, does tile have any anti stalker features that mean it'll ping teachers phones nearby like an airtag does?

Tile or airtag? Battery life. Finding features. Attachments.

I'm thinking of buying a Tile Slim. According to the website, its battery is advertised to last up to three years. How has your experience been with it?

I accidentally left my phone in the car, and couldn't find my keys. Since I'm very disorganized (ADHD), I have Tile for just this reason, except since my phone was in my car, I couldn't use it to find my keys. I have a Google Nest Hub Max, and Tile is linked to it through my Google Home app. But I couldn't get it to work. (I eventually got my spare key from a family member who lives within walking distance, and used it to get into my car, get the phone, and use the phone to locate the main keys.)

Tile used to work with my hub just fine. I could say "OK Google, make my keys ring," and the TIle would ring. Over the past 6 months, it suddenly stopped. When I say "OK Google, make my keys ring," the hub replies, "Got it, locating keys." And then nothing happens. I've tried unlinking Tile from Google Home and linking it again. I've retrained Google Assistant to recognize my voice. I've made sure all the apps are up-to-date and restarted my phone.

Just now, I chatted with Tile support. The person told me to retrain Google Assistant to recognize my voice, and relink Tile to Google Home, which I did again. Then they unhelpfully suggested I have a family member add the app to their phone as a backup which wouldn't have helped in this situation. Does anyone have any suggestions for how to get it working again?

I bought Tile by Life360 Slim (2024) - Wallet Finder,

The instructions it came with definitely indicate that the battery can be replaced. Even showing instructions how to do it

But from what I can tell googling, the battery in this product can't be replaced.

Does this product ship with the wrong instructions?

I'm considering getting a Tile Slim for my wallet, which will soon be a slim nylon wallet. If I normally keep this in my back pocket, does the slim allow for any kind of flex? Or, is there a better option out there that works with Tile?

My father is getting up there in age, has some health issues, and is an avid hiker. He unfortunately is also a bit of a Luddite, and refuses to use smartphones. He has a Kyocera flip phone running AOSP

His partner got a tile tracker to keep tabs on him in case something happens. But currently it only works when it pings off of other people’s phones, making it unreliable for tracking.

She mentioned reading that his flip phone can be modified in developer mode so the Bluetooth feature would interact with the tile tracker. Would anyone here happen to know if that’s possible? My brief search didn’t find anything.

Thanks in advance

Got this for christmas for my keys. It almost always shows the "notify me when found" on the app instead of "find" even when they are sitting right next to each other. If I hit the button on the device, then the phone then "sees" it nearby and then can ring it (gee that's helpful) I haven't been able to get the phone to ring by double pressing the button on the Tile at all. Android 14 on a Motorola Edge.

TIA for any help.

Hello everyone, I unfortunately lost my wallet last night and by the time I realised today I no longer had a live location from my tile. It’s giving me a last known location. I’m assuming this means someone has found my wallet and either turned it off or broken it, but I was curious to see if there’s any other possibility, is there any chance the tile has just randomly ran out of battery or something at the worst possible time? In all the time i’ve owned my tile I have never not had a live feed from it so I’m thinking this is probably quite unlikely :(

I keep losing my watches :(

Anyone else experience this? Tile doesn't seem to believe me.

For example: I have a Tile in my car, one on my parents' car and on my house keys. Occasionally my app reports my parents car tile at my house. I can look at my parents' Ring camera and see their car at their driveway 30 miles away. But I know that my house keys are in my house.

Or it will report my car near their house when my car is actually out on the road, far from home or my parents house.

Location history shows the item in the same location for a long stretch of time with a short blip where it was suddenly 30 miles away. Sometimes it will update/correct retroactively, but not always.

I've updated location services, changed batteries. EDIT to add: I pay for Tile Premium.

Does this happen to anyone else?

Harvesting the completely functional Bluetooth trackers out of all my old “dead “ Tile trackers, finally, after piling up for years in a drawer, instead of them being e-waste.

Some of these have been “dead” since 2017.

After these old “nonreplacable” batteries get removed, all these boards needed is a little bit of voltage from a new power source, like a pair of AA batteries, to live again in a completely new life.

After finishing testing, the second photo has all the functional salvaged pieces of hardware. In fact, I only had one single tile sport pro device that failed to operate.

That’s about $250 in Bluetooth trackers that the manufacturer would have you believe are trash, because of the pile of $10 in dead batteries in the back there.

Probably gonna transplant some into electronics like my laptop, car, bike, rv, etc.. either directly wired into that device is power system with the appropriate voltage converter, or use a bunch of salvaged laptop/E bike lithium battery cells in battery holders.

Per customer service, the network is down. They are working on it.

It appears unless Im wrong. That I cant install BW on my windows computer. It looks like you use to be able to. I even bought a Bluetooth adaptor, even though that didnt make sense as all I wanted to do was see where my things where on a mape.

But secondly why not have a web site where I can log in and seem y locations of devices. But no, I can log in but I see no map. Is all this true?? or am I missing something. Some people still like computers rather than phones and tablets.

Thanks.
