Last month, Apple announced the AirTag, an accessory that will never allow you to lose your keys, bag or wallet again. Although the AirTag is in principle also compatible with Android phones via the NFC reader, the tracker works by far best in combination with an Apple device such as your iPhone or iPad. Android users who want a tracker for their keys should look for AirTag alternatives. We list the best for you.
Tile Pro
The Tile Pro is one of the best-known trackers for your keys. The company behind the Tile was therefore not pleased with Apple’s AirTag and accused the company of it unfair competition. The Tile Pro excels as a key tracker, if only because of the range of 120 meters. That is more than 100 meters from the AirTag and many other Bluetooth trackers do not reach this range. In addition, the battery is replaceable, so the tracker will last a long time.
Tile Slim
If you are looking for a tracker for your wallet, it is best to choose the Tile Slim. This slim tracker fits perfectly in your wallet and the battery lasts no less than three years, which is two years longer than the battery in the Tile Pro. The big disadvantage is that the battery is not replaceable. In addition, the tracker misses a hole, so you cannot hang it on your key ring. The Tile Slim is really pure for your wallet.
Chipolo One
With a suggested retail price of around 24 euros, the Chipolo One is a bit more attractively priced than the Tile Pro, which has a price tag of 39 euros. A significant difference. In addition, Chipolo’s GPS tracker makes a very loud sound, so you can easily find your key ring. Also useful is the option that the tracker’s alarm goes off automatically if the distance between your phone and the tracker becomes too great. This way you avoid leaving important items, such as your keys or wallet, somewhere.
Nut 4 Focus
The Nut 4 has an improved sound signal compared to its predecessor and also looks a bit tighter. The tracker is equipped with a handy anti-theft function: if your phone is too far away from the Nut 4, your smartphone will give an alarm. The range is limited with 50 meters compared to other trackers. Via Google Maps and the GPS function of your smartphone you can see where the connection between the Nut and the phone has been lost.
