Title, a small device that attaches to your belongings to prevent them from getting lost, is now shipping. The device uses Bluetooth low energy to communicate with an app running on your smartphone to track your items.
The company announced that they shipped hundreds of orders last week via Twitter. About a year ago they raised $2.6 million with a SelfStarter campaign; however, pre-orders are just getting out now.
How Tile Works:
If you mark a Tile outside of your range as missing, Tile sends out a signal that puts other Tile apps on the search for your missing item. This all happens in the background, and means that if someone else running the Tile app comes within range of your lost object, the Tile app will discretely and securely identify your item and send you a notification of its location. Not even the person whose Tile app picked up your lost item’s location will know that their phone just found your item. Your Tiles are always secure and are not viewable on anyone else’s Tile app unless you share your Tiles with designated friends and family. Once enough people are using Tile in your area, you are able to watch your personal Tiles move on the Tile app map from anywhere.
Features:
• Locate and manage multiple Tiles on the Tile app, the accompanying iOS application
• Easily view how far away you are from your lost Tile’s signal, within a 100-150 foot
radius
• When your Tile is outside of its Bluetooth range, use the Tile app’s Last Place Seen
feature to discover where you left your item behind
• Share your Tiles with family, roommates, friends or coworkers to make it incredibly
easy for trusted acquaintances to help each other find lost items
• Tile is secure. Only you will be able to see where your Tiles are on your Tile app. The only way anyone else can ever see your Tiles on their personal account is if you explicitly share access. Additionally, Tile never shares your location with others.
• Login to your friend’s Tile app to find your lost Tile if you don’t have your iPhone or iPad
• ‘Ring’ your misplaced Tile from your Tile app to make finding items easier
• Find lost items at a distance thanks to Tile’s community network
• No need to ever charge a Tile or replace batteries. After a year, you will be
reminded when to order a new Tile
• Thanks to the Bluetooth Low Energy connection, Tile works completely wirelessly
You can pre-order a Tile from the link below for $19.95. Take a look at the video for more details...
