Tile simply doesn’t work for us in rural areas. There’s not even remotely the same device density as the iPhone.

- bcherny 4y agoInteresting to hear this, not having tried Tile myself. It does seem like Apple’s big competitive advantage (along with access to low level device APIs they don’t offer to developers).
- mattnewton 4y agoFair, but I’ve found I basically never use other people’s devices, just the last seen location to see where I left something. The only cases where there something was tracking movement was in the case where my wallet was stolen and they were smart enough to remove the credit-card shaped tile in it and bin it immediately in a different place; I imagine my much more conspicuous airtag on my partner’s keys would share the same fate.
- kube-system 4y agoThe last and only time I actually had to use my Tile, it didn’t even work in a frickin’ major international airport. I think it’s funny how people gripe about AirTags and how they have stalking notifications. This was never an issue with Tile because you couldn’t stalk someone with it if you wanted to. It is only an “issue” with AirTags because they actually work.
