A small, circular Bluetooth device that helps you find long-lost items. Too good to be true, isn’t it? TrackR claims “You’ll never lose anything again” when you have TrackR Bravo. This coin-shaped gadget helps you track important stuff. It may not be as useful and as loud as Tile, but it’s pretty cool to have.
How Does TrackR Bravo Work?
You can attach this physical tracker to your valuables. Once attached, download the TrackR app on your phones or computers. If you happen to lose the item, the app will help you find it by ringing an alarm. If the said device is out of tracking reach, trackR uses Crowd GPS to share its whereabouts.
