The Tile Slim is a great choice for tracking down your lost wallet. It is about the same height and length as a credit card, but twice as thick. It measures 2.1 x 3.4 x 0.1 inches (HWD) and slips easily into a wallet or purse without being bulky. It’s available in black, though Tile tends to offer limited edition seasonal colors.
The Tile Slim is a small, rugged phone case made of textured plastic. It has small holes for the speaker and an internal button that lets you locate your phone. The Tile Slim has an IP67 rating so you don’t have to worry about it getting wet, and we bent it back and forth several times and it felt fine. ..
Tile says that the Slim’s non-removable battery lasts about three years; from our own experience, we’d say that’s a fair estimate if you rarely use it. However, once the battery dies, you’ll need to buy a new tracker. If you’re looking for a model with a replaceable battery, the Tile Pro is a better choice. All of Tile’s products work with Android and iOS and are easy to set up.
To activate the Slim, download the Tile app, create an account, tap Add Tile in the app, and press the button on the front of the tracker. It takes less than 10 seconds for the app to recognize the tracker. Once it’s connected to your account, you can customize it by giving it a different name, changing the ringtone, and creating a Siri shortcut if you’re using an iPhone.
Tile is an app that is designed to help you keep track of your belongings. The app has a cluttered home screen when you have more than a handful of trackers installed. We wish Tile would add a list view or an option to resize icons for a more user-friendly experience. ..
Tile is a subscription-based service that offers additional features, such as unlimited location sharing, a 30-day location history, and an extended warranty. There’s also a Smart Alerts feature that sends a notification to your phone when you leave something that has a Tile tracker attached. After the first year expires, you will no longer be able to use the service unless you renew it. ..
