Air tags (but for an Android user)
March 08, 2024, 12:44:08 am
Does anyone have any experience of using alternatives to Apple Air Tags?

I could've really used them this past week but don't have an iDevice to do the initial setup.

We use Tile trackers. I have an android phone and my partner has an iPhone. The trackers seem to work well and are reliable.  The app we use them with is Life 360. Just the basic version,  not the paid subscription.
Came in quite handy when my check in bag was lost in the way back from Japan. I knew pretty much where it was all the time and could track it as it was being returned to me.
We have had a few issues with the app crashing but we just log out and back in again and all is well. HTH.

Thanks. I'm actually using the Life 360 app so that's awfully convenient. Is it the tile mate you're using?

Just need ones small enough for my wallet, which seems to continuously disappear and reappear.

No. We use the Tile pro. We got them in a special deal cheaply.
