Beginning with Android 12
Android 12 allows you to choose between precise and approximate location information.
Tile app needs to run all the time
This setting allows the app to continuously update your Tile’s location, keeping its location accurate.
Tile app needs “precise” location
This setting allows the app to more accurately find your Tile. If you select “approximate”, the app will not be as precise when displaying your Tile’s location.
For example, if you choose “precise”, the app will show the street address of the Tile’s location; if you choose “approximate”, it will show you the location within a larger mile radius.
Set location permissions during Tile account setup
Follow the steps in Tile Location Services.
Notification banner at the top of the home screen
If the app displays a notification banner, you will need to change the permission settings (e.g., Bluetooth, Allow all the time) so that the Tile app can function correctly.
Tap the banner and follow the prompts to change your settings.
