I use Tile's personally.

I was using those for the better part of a decade. Cut over to the AirTags recently. The tracking network is night and day.

If Google’s rumored tracker launches as expected this year, and Android is also has a core tracking service that doesn’t require a third party app install, Tile’s days are numbered.

I thought Google's platform was going to allow 3rd party participation and Tile (among others) had signed on. Dunno, I haven't been following closely but I thought I had read that. I'll use whatever works on the new platform though, so if it's proprietary then I agree that the other trackers are in rough shape.

I’ll be damned. You’re right.

Weird that they decided to release new hardware to support that network but, unlike Chipolo, not Apple’s Find My. I wonder if Google is going to let Tile lock its customer into the Tile app.

Curious to see what happens when they launch the new Tile hardware and Google launches whatever Pixel tracker they’re working on.
