Tile grows partnerships and adds features

Techstination feature for Friday, October 26, 2018

Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear.   I’m Fred Fishkin.        Finding where you put those keys….and lots of other everyday things…can sometimes be challenging.    But the folks at Tile have been helping to solve those problems with Bluetooth tracking devices.   In fact they’ve been partnering with companies….to include Tile tracker capabilities.    Skullcandy has included Tile built into its great new Venue active noise canceling wireless headphones.  Skullcandy’s Liz Teran…

“We’ve taken that technology and we’ve embedded it in the headphone so that you can not only track your headphone, you can ping them so if you can’t find them in a room you can pull up the Tile app on your phone and ping your headphones or see their last location.”

Another big development.. two new trackers…the Tile Mate and Tile Pro that for the first time have user replaceable batteries.   There’s also a new subscription plan…for 30 dollars a year….that includes battery replacements for unlimited numbers of Tiles.
