Question for you, what do you use these for? I have a few for keys but never seen to have to use them.

I will use one for gopro camera and stick the rest to a keychain and act it like a normal tile mate.

So I guess the question is, are these tiles worth $21?

I see what they're used for, but I can't even think of 4 things to place them on.

You can leave one to your car - in case you forgot where you parked
You can leave one to your family's car - to track them
You can attach one to your pet - in case they are frequent runaways
You can attach one to your love one - in case they run away

I don't have them yet but I plan to use them as such

We have a 2 year old that constantly runs away or stashes our remotes for tvs in various rooms.

This would be perfect for that.

My only complain with this 'Tile' is that the battery is not replaceable...

Looks like Best Buy has the same deal, but you can use Tile Mate instead of the the Tile Sticker, or you can add Tile Pro.

Edit: Sorry, Tile Mate is $69, so it's $10 more expensive than the Sticker, but I believe it has an option for a replaceable battery so it may be a better option.

Lol yeah I guess but you're thinking these things work like a GPS tracker but they don't work exactly like that. Your phone has a proximity meter for when you get closer (I guess measures by Bluetooth signal strength) and the tile beeps at the same time. Others can report the location of the tile if you go to the app and ask it to notify you when found. Not that crazy especially if the tile happens to be in an area without other tile users.

Yup the 2 of the 3 I have were non replaceable batteries and are dying. I got them free at an expo branded from HSBC. Seeing if worth replacing.

How many of these Google Home Minis / Nest Minis do I need?!?!

Google wants to know when you're getting giggidy everywhere.

Enough so there is no more privacy in your home.

Can we buy and return the Tile?

4 TrackRs at the Dollarama = $16
1 pk CR20016 (also Dollarama) = ~ $2
1 Google Nest Mini = $39

Not sure why this is a deal... unless you really want Tile. I've tried both and had mixed results with both.

His house must be huge! haha

I have 3. One per floor. I won't put one in my bedroom though. You know, some sort of privacy at least.

I had just ordered 2 more based on a Staples deal. One for the garage. And another I have no idea... If the new Nest Minis are noticeably better than the Home Minis, then maybe I'll just use them to replace my existing ones.

Only if you can still find these TrackR's. I was hoping to find one but did not have luck.

I think it's OOS now

My tile's been a pos lately
50% of the time that it's supposed to be ringing, it'll stay silent but on the app it says "your tile is ringing" or whatever
