QALO TraQ works best for populated areas where people are likely to have Bluetooth devices. The finding experience may differ in the wilderness or environments without other Bluetooth devices nearby. 

 

Who is responsible if a dog gets lost and Tile can’t find it?

Tile is committed to providing an excellent finding experience and delivering peace of mind to you.  However, we can't guarantee that all pets will be findable under all circumstances and in all locations.  Accordingly, pet owners are ultimately responsible for their pets, including if they cannot be found using QALO TraQ or the Tile app.
