CHIPOLO One - 1 Pack - Bluetooth Tracker for Keys, Bags, Object Locator, Out of Range Alerts and Other Free Features, Compatible with iOS and Android (Yellow)

For many years I've wished there was a key ring that I could just phone up to track down my keys when I mislaid them, I do it more often than most people it seems. And its here! though it uses Bluetooth rather than the network which is fine as distance wise as I usually have some inkling of the location of where they may be lurking. Did a bit of research before I decided on Chipolo and happy I made the right choice. It's range is good, as is the volume of beeper. A bonus is that you can reverse it to find you phone from your keys also. You can replace the batteries unlike others that are sealed for life and there is no subscription to pay. Oh yes, the first day I got them, I'd moved my car out of my field, shut and locked the gate, when back to my car which was blocking the road and found I hadn't got my car keys. Convinced I'd dropped them somewhere in the long grass i went back in the field and called up the Chipolo I could hear it beeping and walked around trying to get a fix on it, felt so stupid when I discovered they were in my wellie boot having missed my pocket and slipped between my overalls and trousers! I wouldn't have found them until I'd searched the field in vain, walked home and taken my boots off. And blocked the road for half a day! I wouldn't be without my Chipolo now. Value for money? definitely!

I lost my car key twice in 2019 and each time cost me around £200 to replace the key. invest £20-30 for a good key finder make good sense. The first product I came across was XY Findit, which does not work at all. I bought Chipolo and Tile Mate each and try them at home. Both Chiplo and Tile Mate claim to have 200 feet range. However, I find Chipolo is always connected around house and Tile Mate lost connection from time to time. My Tile Mate failed after two week and I sent it back for replacement. Tile Mate has more functions but some of them require further subscription. I find Chipolo more reliable for the job it is designed to do.

The Chipolo One works as expected. The out-of-range alert works great. The alarm really is quite loud. I've had no false alarms yet. You do need to know two things though... 1. After you've installed the Chipolo app on an Android phone, you need to ensure that your phone's battery saving processes don't stop the Chipolo app from running. For Android 11, go to your phone's settings; Apps & Notifications; SEE ALL APPS; Chipolo; Advanced; Battery; Battery optimisation; ALL APPS; Chipolo; Don't optimise. Different phone models and different versions of Android have their own battery saving processes which may stop the Chipolo app from running. Check out dontkillmyapp.com for more help. 2. The 4 pack bundle is not individually wrapped. The Chipolo website states that the bundles are individually wrapped when buying online. Well, the 4 packs I bought from Amazon UK aren't. I bought two of the 4 packs, wanting to gift them to nephews and nieces at Christmas. The four Chipolo Ones are mounted on a single foam card, once you've ripped open the outer packaging. I've found some ring gift boxes by a manufacturer called Kurtzy on here, which will fit the Chipolo One (1.61 inches wide). So, I'm going to split the packs and add each Chipolo One to a ring box - but it's not ideal. I'm hoping this doesn't look too cheap, as the Chipolo One isn't cheap at all. Overall though - great product. Replaceable long-lasting battery too. Each unit should last for years! Unlike the Tile, you do not have to pay extra for the out-of-range alerts.

Completely trash they track nothing unless your phone is in proximity. No good to find your keys either around the home or anything else for that matter. The accuracy is poor. It only shows a general area. I used them for my suitcase at the airport it did not track the location through out the airport journey. It only told me that they located on aeroplane once I was board. Otherwise it showed them at check-in. Also no good for tracking your kids. My kids went Liverpool with school and it had no data on the. Avoid....

This is the older version on the CARD tracker, but it's finally just what I needed, works perfectly with the solid Chipolo app cause honestly Google's Find Hub is absolute dogs***, where it doesn't even provide any left-behind notifications and had been quite unreliable in my testing. This works flawlessly, albeit with a slightly smaller range than the newer models. Still at 24% off, this is great value! Now I can track all my devices in the same app and remove Google's FMD.

Doesn’t work. Get an Apple AirTag instead.

I was an early adopter of Tile, thinking them a very useful concept: I'll never forget my wallet or medical bag again! Well, I was wrong - idea was sound, but Tile let me down far too many times and I was paying a subscription for them to tell me 20 miles too late that I had forgotten something. It may have been down to earlier Android versions' process management, or coupled with other factors, but I was highly unimpressed. This made me cautious about trying something similar again, and having been stung by Tile, I wasn't going to buy anything from them ever again (possibly unfair of me). Also, I have enough tedious subscriptions, and the lack of user replaceable batteries is pretty unforgivable (and no, going with their more "premium" product is not good enough). I am also not an iPhone user and never will be. Anyway, enough of me complaining about Tile. Chipolo ONE: they work well. I consistently get a chirp if I'm just a few meters away from my house (depending on Bluetooth range and how many walls between my phone and the tag), the app is nice and light, refreshingly no perpetual subscription fees, and when the battery dies, I can apparently replace it myself (we'll see about that...). I've so far been impressed enough to buy two more.

These were ordered for a friend and his wife even though I do use them myself. They work through the Chipolo app and can only be linked to one phone at a time unlike the Chipolo One Spot which will work on all iPhones or iPads in your account. They work through Bluetooth and with mine, I have a three bedroom house and yet they appear to be visible all the time no matter where I am in the house. You do have to leave your Bluetooth on but you can switch off your internet and it will track as long as it is in Bluetooth range. When you activate the alarm which is loud enough, it will keep going until you find the tag and then you switch it off either on the tag or your phone. The advantage is these will work on Android and iPhone where as the One Spot works on the iPhone only through their Find My app. Buying a pack of four works out at only £17.50 each saving £5.50 on each one. If you lose your keys or other items like I have done in the past, these are well worth having. There is no subscription to pay for so you are only paying the purchase price and that is it, unlike some others where there is a subscription attached to it. Overall for Android these are perfect to use but I can’t say that for IPhone as the Chipolo One Spot also works perfect. I think it is which one is best suited for your needs and whether you want an additional app on your iPhone considering you already have the Find My app installed which cannot be uninstalled.
