Common Questions

Do I need a paid Life360 membership to use my Tiles in Life360?

No. If you already have Tiles you can link your accounts and see them in the Life360 app.

 

Can I pick which Tiles I connect to Life360?

No, all Tiles activated on your Tile account will be added to Life360, but they will only be visible to the Circles you add them to. You can choose to share with more than one Circle.

 

Can I add a Tile that I did not purchase/receive from Life360?

Yes, all active Tiles on your account will show in Life360.

 

Where can I purchase Tile devices?

Tile Bluetooth trackers can be purchased at www.tile.com.

 

What is the Tile Network?

All Tiles emit a secure Bluetooth signal, so when a phone with the Life360 or Tile app passes by your item, you’ll get a location update as part of the Tile Network — automatically and anonymously.

 

How do I use my Tile to ring my phone?

Learn how to find my phone with Tile.

 

How does Tile track location?

Tile uses Bluetooth technology to make a connection with the Tile app on your device. Once the Tile is within Bluetooth range and the connection is established, it relies on the GPS location services of your device to update the location information in your app. The Tile itself does not have GPS location services.
