Tile uses Bluetooth technology to connect with the Tile app on your device. It does not have GPS or real-time location monitoring. When a Tile is within Bluetooth range (100 feet up to 500 feet) and a connection is established, your device will update its location.
The location displayed in the Tile app is where the Tile was located the last time it made a successful connection with your device and the Tile app. If the Tile loses its connection to your device, it cannot communicate its location to the Tile app.
