Tile Lost and Found Labels

Available for Tile customers in the U.S. (United States) and U.K. (United Kingdom)

 

Lost and Found Labels

Lost and Found Labels are adhesive QR codes used to help return lost items to their owners. 

  1. Activate the Label in the Tile app (see below).
  2. Stick Tile Lost and Found Labels to your things.
  3. If your item is lost, the finder can scan the QR code to view the contact information you added and return your item.

Stick your dishwasher-safe Lost and Found Labels to your favorite items like tablets, lunchboxes, and water bottles. Labels are not currently recommended for use on textiles and cloth. 

Label glue gets stronger after 48 hours, so we recommend not trying to peel off or wash the Label until 48 hours after application.

Remember— as Labels are intended to provide contact information through the Tile app to anyone who finds your item, they do not provide location updates or notifications.

Note:

  • Hiding your Label will not deactivate or make it unfindable. Contact Customer Care if you need help deleting a Label and its contact information.
  • Find My Phone will not work if you only have a Tile Lost and Found Label. The feature requires an activated Tile on your account to work.
