Findly Wallet Tracker Card

It is built to the footprint of a payment card and sits flat in a wallet or cardholder. That is the whole point of the shape: nothing bulges, nothing dangles, and the wallet still closes the way it did before.

Treat it as everyday splash resistant rather than waterproof. It lives happily in a wallet, bag or glovebox, but it is not made for submersion, so take it out before swimming or putting a bag through a wash.

Yes, though placement matters. RFID sleeves and metal wallets can weaken the Bluetooth signal and shorten range. Put the card in an outer or non-metal slot rather than sandwiched between two metal layers.

It uses Apple's Find My network. Once paired it shows up in the Items tab next to your other devices, so you can see it on the map or make it ring when it is close by. Nearby Apple devices relay its location anonymously.

Hold the power button for about three seconds to wake it. Open Find My, tap the plus icon and choose Add Other Item, then tap Connect when the card appears. Name it, agree to link it to your Apple ID and tap Finish.

Yes. Each card is added as its own item with its own name and icon, so a wallet, a suitcase and a laptop sleeve all appear separately in the list. Adding the second and third takes about as long as the first.

Tap the card in Find My and choose Play Sound, then follow the beeps and tap Stop Sound once you have it. If it is further away, the map shows the last known location with a timestamp and Directions opens Apple Maps.

Open the card in Find My and turn on Lost Mode. Add a phone number or email and a short message for whoever finds it. While Lost Mode is active the card is locked and cannot be paired to anyone else's account.

No. It pairs with Apple devices running iOS 14.5 or later, and the Find Items app on Apple Watch needs a current watchOS. Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and Location Services all need to be on for pairing to work.

None. The card works through Apple's Find My network, which is part of iOS and free to use. There is no subscription, no account to create and nothing to renew.

Yes, and that is deliberate. It recharges on a wireless pad instead of running on a coin cell you have to buy and replace, so a single charge lasts a long stretch and there is nothing to throw away afterwards.

Make sure Lost Mode is off, open the card in Find My, scroll down and tap Remove Item. Then press the power button four times quickly and hold it on the fifth press until you hear the reset chime.

Apple builds protections into the network for exactly this. If an unknown accessory travels with you over time, your iPhone or iPad warns you. If you do not carry an Apple device, the accessory starts making a sound once it has been away from its owner for a while.

No. Location data on the Find My network is end-to-end encrypted and anonymous. Nobody else can read it, not us as the manufacturer and not Apple.

Write to us through the contact page and we answer every message ourselves, usually the same working day. Include your order number and, if it is a pairing question, which iOS version you are on.
