Chipolo ONE Spot - Key Finder, Bluetooth Tracker for Keys, Bag - Works with The Apple Find My app (only for iOS) (Almost Black)

I charge my iPhone in QuickTime. I was very pleased and it’ll save me messing about in future. Highly recommend.

I bought two Chipolos. One is for my Ebike, so that I have a chance of recovering it if it’s stolen. It fits perfectly inside the seat and because the Chipolo sounder is quite loud, it’s still possible to hear it. This first one gets a 5 out 5 stars, but the second Chipolo hasn’t faired quite as well and I appreciate I could be asking too much from it. I bought it to use on my dog’s collar. We’re not naïve and realise if anyone stole the dog they’d probably immediately throw away the collar, but it looks a little bit like a name tag, so might not get immediate attention. The main reason for it is in case she goes wandering… it just gives us an extra chance of finding her. The negative is the battery life which for some reason only lasted 3 months on this one. The water proofing wasn’t quite good enough to be ‘dog proof’ and I did have to take the cover off the Chipolo at about 6 weeks and clean the battery (it had stopped working). This water/damp ingress could have contributed to the poor battery life. I’m going to experiment with some silicone sealant as I’m sure that will massively help, but ruin the warranty of course… A bit more waterproofing and I’d have given these 5 stars.

The one thing this does not not have is ultra wideband tracking which is where the Airtags have a very good advantage. The problem is, if your iPhone does not support ultra wideband tracking, there is no advantage. It also does not have NFC which just means Android phones will not be able to scan the Chipolo in lost mode but iPhones can through the app. To set it up you simply put the find me app into device search mode and press on the Chipolo in the middle of the disc and follow the on screen instructions and that’s it. The alarm is quite a bit louder and it doesn’t cut off after 5 seconds unlike the Airtag. I would say both the Airtag and Chipolo are very useful depending on which iPhone you have, but for me, because I have the latest iPhone SE, I find the Chipolo is more suitable because my iPhone does not support ultra wideband tracking, therefor I have to rely more on the alarm which the Chipolo does have quite an advantage over the Airtag. Overall the choice is quite simple. If you have ultra wideband tracking on your iPhone, the Airtag is a lot more suitable but if it doesn’t, the Chipolo in my opinion has to be a much better option because of it’s alarm which is what you have to rely on.

Brilliant Tracker - has a hole to go directly on a keyring (unlike Apple Airtags, which require a separately purchased holder). Loud beeper (louder than the Apple version), and long Bluetooth range (seems greater than the Apple version). Having said which, I also have Apple Air Tags, which have one feature not available on the Chipolo ONE Spot: a close-range direction finder where your iPhone (running the built-in "Find My" app) points directly towards your tag, and tells you how many feet / metres away it is. For me, the loud beeper on the Chipolo means I don't really miss this otherwise cool Air Tag trick. Highly recommended - I have two Chipolos, one on my house keys and the other on my car keys. I also have 5 Air Tags, each in a difference bag or case (suitcases, laptop case, grab bag, etc). Happy with both trackers, and would not hesitate to buy more of either.

Every time we’ve needed it it has failed. The battery doesn’t last long enough for it to be practical; six months max. Advertised battery life no doubt from lab conditions or data estimate. Locating - would only show location more than 10 minutes ago, which if your trying to find a lost dog is no use at all. Lost mode doesn’t work effectively. If you’re lucky you’ll get a text message about an hour after you’ve already found the tag. Play sound only works if you’re very close to the tag and have been for at least 10-15 mins. The only application is to find your list keys in your house where you are with good wifi. Anything else it’s useless. Just get a key bowl/key hook and keep your keys there, it’s cheaper and doesn’t need batteries :)

Bought this for my partner who was constantly asking "Have you seen my keys". My suggestions to put them in the same place each time she came into the house did not go down well so I bought her this. It connects to iphone's "wheres my..." and it really accurate. I bought this one after contemplating between the apple disc and this. The Chipolo had great reviews and deservedly so. Very please with this item and would definitely recommend it.

Well, apparently this was supposed to be a budget friendly airtag alternative with at least some extra features. However, in reality it costs almost the same as the actual airtag and no surplus features. As the description says the set up was pretty quick on iOS devices and works great if you need to attach a keyring where as the original airtag requires an additional purchase of expensive key attachment for this reason. If your limitations are very limited, let's say to find out the hidden keys or items like wallets, phones, earphones etc etc within the close vicinity, this is a considerable piece of equipment. However, I would go for the airtag or tiles due to their competitive price and rich features.

I'm a big iPhone / iPad fan, but the Airtag really annoyed me - £29 for something that needs a £35 accessory (genuine Apple) to make it usable on a keyring?? Do me a favour! I've had a few Tile devices which were ok, but the Chipolo ONE Spot is 'Find My' compatible which is a big plus, and it actually includes a free hole in the casing to allow you to add to your keyring! So generous... When I've tested it, the sounder is loud and the Find My functionality works well. Not the most engaging of designs, but it still looks like new after being carried in my pocket for a few months, unlike my son's Airtag which is now very scratched. Even better, I've not managed to lose my keys since I bought it ;-)

Buen producto y precio.

Nice and loud. App is easy to use. Had it working in minutes. Cheaper and better than Tile in my opinion.

BEST

Tutto ok. Buon prodotto. Ottima alternativa a tag Apple
