     @Antiqueight my experience with Tile is it's a bit of a hack that phones give out about the softwares battery usage constantly. I believe Samsungs tags are a bit closer to the Apple experience if you've a Samsung device. Google has a new native protocol they're pushing used by Chipolo and Pebblebee but it's only a few months old. My money is on that being the eventually winner but not much happening so far. https://www.android.com/learn-find-my-device/

     @whatatoots yeah, the timing on the new Google option means I wasn't seeing much about it at all. I'm inclined towards something designed for my phone over not but wasn't sure if I was then passing on a superior device
