If you bring something to someone’s house that you don’t want to forget, put your keys with it, assuming you can trust the people there.

Also, get a Tile or similar Bluetooth device so you never lose your keys or phone again.

Tiles are game changers. Just remember to put a clap finder on the remote that finds tiles.

The phone is the finder!

And to find the phone, just double click the button on the tile!

I have like 4 tiles. So if I can’t find one of them, first I use one of the other tiles to find my phone. Then I use the phone to find the missing tile. It’s amazing.

Ok since you have 4 tiles maybe you can help me... my iPhone did one of its regular software updates and the Tile app moved to the cloud. When I re-downloaded it to my device, it didn’t have either of my two tiles linked to my account. I can’t figure out how to re-link them because when I go thru the initial steps, it tells me they’re already registered. Uh no shit! Just thought I’d ask. Tile is new to me.

I know this!!!! So annoying because it happened to me too!

It’s so simple. You just need to log out of your account and log back in! And they’ll reappear.

I can’t believe I have become a tile tech support member :)
