How much battery does your bluetooth use?
I'm on about 20%. I've just replaced them and I'm not sure if my phone is searching for the old ones.
My brother got me a couple for my birthday a few months ago. I don't lose anything really, more like misplace things around the house. Not sure how much battery the bluetooth uses up, but when the tile batteries run out I won't bother replacing them. Then the day after I will lose my keys and wallet.
I have - don't really notice the Bluetooth on my iPhone using battery. It's a 6S and the battery is as good as it's ever been. Then again I'm still running IOS10.3
The Tiles right - just so you know - they actually last a couple of years at least. The company email you to update them after a year saying they will die, but unless you update the app, they don't die. Keep the old version of the app and they keep working for 2 years+
I did lose my keys once, my old commute had a load of speed bumps and keys jumped out of the pocket of my rucksack. With Tile, I could pinpoint the exact spot I lost them, but they weren't there! Someone had handed them in to the copshop. Still, was very useful to know the place, so I didn't have to search he whole route.
Does your Tile show up as a paired device?
Yep - always shows as connected
yes, have the keyring and the wallet one - wouldn't be without them, as I'm always misplacing my sh1t.
my last ones started behaving erratically after about 2 years.
well worth it for me
Mine never show's up as paired. It must be searching for it all the time.
Maybe you gotta press the "e" again
I won one of this very site. It didn’t work well at all so I threw it away.
Im not sure this is helpful information.
I'll find it for you if you want?
I use TrackR - batteries are replaceable, in fact they will send you a free one when yours runs out.
Don't find it affects battery life adversely.
World of Warships, however, will kill your battery
Same as mcnultycop.
i won one and thought it was utter shite so it sat in a draw then chucked away.
It would’ve been perfect if you’d lost the draw[sic] though.
We have them on the car keys / in wallets. Always worked very well for us and don't seem to be killing phone battery life. Also keep one in road bike saddle pack.
Also keep one in road bike saddle pack.
Why?

Wild guess: In case road bike gets "lost" ?
