You'll never say that again when you attach a Tile to your keys, or anything else you can't find around the house.

Now what about lost golf balls?

    In the olden days we just tied a hubcap to the key, like a gas station bathroom key, lmao.

      Or a giant iron ring connected to the key with biker chains.

          I put mine on my dresser along side my wallet.
          I realize they are something I need often so I always put them in the same place when not in use.

          Of course the question for those that need this is what do you do when you misplace your phone?

    The Tile is a really brilliant idea ... from the video its a real working product now. Very impressive and looks like there will be many more potential uses for it like keeping them in you children's pockets.

    range - 50 to 150 feet - stolen bike. Yeah - good luck.

    I never lose my keys. Those are too important to me. I don't put them down until they are in their spot. To me, this is just one more thing in the consumerism racket....that helps you not pay attention to what you're doing or make you have to use your memory. What happens if we lose electronics?

      If you lost any at the courses I played at (when I played) they are probably in my bag. I found them looking for my ball.

        So true. There's a tough pair of courses around here called Industry Hills. You can play 9 holes on a slow day, and pick up hundreds of expensive balls just a couple of steps in the hedges and brush, filling up that basket on the back of the golf cart. Insane.

          I played a lot at Albany Country Club when I worked there. Members would hit into the high grass and just drop another ball in play. I always had plenty of balls and never bought a sleeve.
          The pro there would always tell me that if I straightened my shot out I wouldn't play from the rough so much. I told him if I didn't play from the rough so much I wouldn't have any balls to play with

    if you lose your phone, you can log into your Tile account from
    somebody else's phone, and they seem to be anticipating a
    network of Tile users for help locating bikes.
