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)

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.

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.

These discs do not work unless they are in range of your phone bluetooth or home WiFi signal and even then the tracking app is not very accurate. If you attach it to your keys and they are inside your home, you can use the audible alarm to locate them (although on the map it may say they're in the street, or in a neighbours house, you can pretty much ignore the map function on the app). If you attach it to something that leaves your home (e.g. luggage or say a cat) It relies on all the other Chipolo apps "joining forces" to tell you were your disc is, and their simply aren't enough. I live in a city and I got no response to the search function. It is not GPS and when it is in range the accuracy is poor. We bought this because it didn't have a monthly subscription attached to it. False economy. Our cat lost its collar and although the disc was attached we have no idea where the collar is. Pointless. We're going to have to bite the bullet and get a tracker with a monthly fee.

This is a brilliant tracker. I brought one for youngest child and was so happy with it I brought one for my eldest. Easy to set up and very simple to use. Can't recommend enough. We have android phones and the chipolo one doesn't work on iPhone but works fab on android. I believe but they do make done that does work on iPhone. It also lets you locate your phone by pressing and holding it it rings your phone. Also reverse feature you can make the tracker ring by using your phone. Handy price of kit if you like my eldest daughter are always losing things in the house!!!

Pretty good, but it is often difficult to get a connection to the chip even when it's nearby. I had hoped to use these like a live tracker in case my things were stolen, but it would just as likely only connect when you stuff is already in the cargo container on its way to China

I have had for a little over a month. I was constantly loosing my key fob or forgetting my work badge. For the price, I like that I received 4 chips and they are helping my problem. When its time to go to work, I can beep my things to make sure I have them. Sometimes that happens in the car to check for my badge and has saved me. The 4 star is due to the fact that often the chips dont effectly beep my phone. I think it is due to leaving wifi when I go to car and come back inside.

Easy set-up. Good sound and small size to hide in compartments of an e-bike.

Muy bueno, me gustaría que sonara un poco más, pero funciona como dice.

I bought it for finding misplaced items around the house and for that it works very well. The “fruit” decoration is just a sticker on an otherwise normal Chipolo but the decoration is holding up quite nicely. As advertised, it is NOT a full-featured GPS tracker like Tile or Air Tag. We did send one on a trip to see if it was detected and it was spotted in the Atlanta Airport. Not so much in rural mid-America.

El localizador Chipolo One cumple perfectamente las especificaciones, permitiendo localizarlo siempre y cuando esté dentro del alcance de la señal bluetooth del dispositivo con el que está vinculado. En mis caso, lo he usado en un viaje de larga duración para tenerlo dentro de la maleta. Este dispositivo permite en cualquier momento comprobar si sigue al alcance de la señal del móvil desde la aplicación móvil (es decir, si sigue cerca tuyo), y en caso de ser necesario, mandar una señal para que el chipolo emita una señal auditiva. Remarcar que el sonido que produce es bastante alto, y sería difícil no oírlo incluso a distancia. Hice la comprobación estando sentado en un autocar, y la malea en el porta maletas del autocar, y podía oír en sonido sin problemas. En el titulo de la reseña hablo de localizador de doble sentido, y me refiero a uno de las funcionalidades que más me ha sorprendido. El chipolo contiene un botón en su interior, que de ser apretado hace sonar el teléfono móvil con el que está vinculado. En este caso, esta funcionalidad la he usado cuando dejaba la maleta en el hotel y salía a visitar ciudades, poniendo el chipolo en la cartera. Permite localizar la cartera desde el móvil en caso de que no la encuentras, y en sentido inverso, localizar el móvil apretando el chipolo que llevas en la cartera. El único punto que creo que tiene cierto margen de mejora es la aplicación android. Está constantemente mandando avisos (demasiado verbose), y en algún caso me ha provocado algún microinfarto por perdidas de señal momentáneas. A diferencia del apple airtag, este dispositivo no puede ser localizado por ningún otro teléfono móvil al que no esté vinculado, pero la funcionalidad de sonar cuando pierde señal con el móvil no la tiene el airtag, así que lo mejor para elegir uno u otro es pensar en el uso que se le va a dar. En general una muy buena compra.
