can you hear me now Not really.

This is a useful and good product but the tiles are not loud enough. Once when I was out and about I looked in my wallet and couldn't hear it at all even though it was in my pocket. I could barely hear the voice on the keychain from outside the living room. If they made the sound that the app makes when selecting tile tones before loading them, they'd be a lot better. I would give this 3 1/2 stars as is.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Difficult to say

Very disappointed. I originally had the first issue that worked.

Very disappointed. Initially, I had the first version, which worked great. But after buying this issue, I stopped being a fan. The app loads well and setup was easy, but my iPhone doesn't find the tiles even when the tiles are next to it (yes, bluetooth is on). It can tell tiles are nearby but never finds them, so I can't even use the ringer function. To top it off I have a combination of 4 and all 4 have the same problem. So actually a waste of almost $70.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Vulgarity

an indispensable gadget (the battery is replaced with your own hands)

The tile is amazing. No more extremely frustrating searches for lost keys or lost wallets. The battery drains pretty quickly (not sure if that was intentional, so I'll buy another one or not); definitely! Batteries are easy to replace. The standard battery is CR2035, which has a capacity of only 163 mAh. I used a CR2032 (a very common battery) with a capacity of 240 mAh. Then the electrical tape re-tightened the tile and it worked perfectly. There are videos on YouTube showing how to do it…

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Long delivery time

One year battery life then buy again through their 'recycle' program

Works very well, very easy to connect and everything works as advertised. My only complaint about this product is that the battery only lasts a year and then you buy new tiles at their "discount price". So it's going to be like an ongoing annual subscription and I suspect the replacement price isn't as cheap as Revains as they sell their tiles at a much higher price through their payment page. If they change that policy to make replacement tiles a lot cheaper I'll stick with them, if not I'll…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons

DIES IN A YEAR whether you use it or not.

I support the review complaining about the subscription model. You have to buy a new one every year whether you like it or not. They don't talk about it very openly and hide this small detail deep in the product description - you rarely find it unless you know what to look for. These things are expensive, and after a year they die, and they willingly start bombarding you with promotions to buy a new one. I don't care how much they charge or how long they last, as long as that information is…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Big and bulky

My real life experience with Tile.

These tiles do not work as promised. Smaller but thicker, I attached it to my keychain. I put the larger but thinner one in my laptop bag. I installed the Tile app on my Samsung 8+. Here are my results: Twice I lost my phone at home. As advertised, I should just press one of my pre-programmed tiles and the phone should start beeping. THAT DOES NOT WORK. Even after I found the phone and clicked the tile *right next to the phone* it didn't work. The only way I can get this to work is if I have my

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • unreliable

Please read the information before buying. I'm using an older version, but the company has changed their policies since the product was released. I don't usually write a review unless the product is awesome or terrible. At best, the tiles were pretty good when they then picked up the signal, but it's a great concept. Now Tile has DISABLED all my tiles through the app which is only 7 months old and says they have expired due to battery life. What a coincidence that they "died" all at once? WHAT…

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Some small things
