Tile

Long before Airtags were revealed, long before we even talked about them, there were Tile-branded trackers. In fact, they have worked and are working very well. However, the power of Apple is greater, the synchronization with the Apple ecosystem is better and, above all, the possibility of millions of iPhones serving as trackers and search engines for this lost device. But Tile is not giving up in its efforts to overtake Apple and this time it seems that it has just taken a few meters ahead thanks to the undetectable anti-theft mode and penalties for fraudulent use. We tell you.

Who makes the Leym cheaters. It’s even older than Tile. In other words, every time something new comes out, someone is looking for a way to use it fraudulently or erroneously, or even illegally. It happened with the Tile and with the AirTags which were used to stalk people, follow them without their consent and a long etcetera. Apple has put in its defense mechanisms but it doesn’t seem like they’re entirely effective. In a society where privacy is increasingly a determining factor, Tile has just made a decision that could your sales increase compared to the AirTag.

Tile has announced a new anti-theft mode for tracking devices. It is designed for making tiling accessories undetectable by the Scan and Secure anti-harassment function. This feature is a security measure that Tile has in place to allow iPhone users and others to search and detect nearby devices to prevent them from being used for harassment. Now this feature removes anti-theft capabilities.

What you’ve done now is Tile’s anti-theft mode disables the feature. It means a tile tracking device it cannot be located by someone who does not have the tracker. Customers must register using multi-factor identification. Agree to some rather restrictive terms of service, including a $1 million fine if the device ends up being used to track someone without their consent.

A good option to add to the AirTag.
