Find It Right Where You Left It With the Tile!

Lost it again?  A new app for your phone will make it easier to find than ever before.  The Tile App, a product developed by Reveal Labs, is a thin device with a double-sided adhesive to stick to virtually any surface.  Place the tile on your laptop, wallet, keys, guitar, bike, or whatever else you have the tendency to misplace.  In fact, Reveal Labs states that the app can handle up to 10 tiles on one account. Great for the individual on the go who just can’t seem to keep their stuff all together!

The Tile currently works with iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPad Mini, iPad 3rd and 4th generation, and iPod Touch 5th generation.

The Tile works by sounding an alert if triggered, so if you can hear it, you can find it. The app has a range of 50-150 feet, depending on the environment, but with the ability to send an update to your phone from any other Tile user’s phone within 50-150 feet of your Tile, the range becomes almost limitless, according to developers.  The app sends your phone a map view displaying a pin for the location of your Tile.

The Tile App also remembers where it last saw your Tile, enabling users to find their tile right where they left it!

Reveal Labs claims there are no batteries to charge or replace with the Tile.  After one year of activation, the company reminds you it’s time to order a new Tile. The latest version of the Tile complete with its own new battery then arrives, ready for another year of use.  Other benefits of this innovative design are that the Tile is waterproof and thinner than it would need to be otherwise.

The Tile App on your phone makes it easier to find your lost items anywhere, anytime.  Finding something when you need it fast is also important when it comes to data recovery.  For anytime, anywhere help recovering important data stored on your phone for this app or any other, help is readily available.

The Tile enables users to share access to their Tile with people they trust.  Only you and the Tile users you’ve explicitly given permission to share your Tile can search for your Tiles.  The app company takes your security seriously.  For Internet security for this app or any other security issue, help is available around the clock for any computer user serious about safeguarding online activity.

Reveal Labs plans to ship the tiles to locations in the U.S., Canada, countries in the EU, Australia, and New Zealand as well as eventually other countries.  Perhaps soon, wherever you travel, you will never be too far away to track your belongings.  Consider the benefits the next time that airline loses your luggage!
