Tile’s newest update is expanding the app’s crazy phone-finding superpowers so it can find your phone even when it’s on silent.
WAIT, SO WHAT IS TILE?
If you’re already a Tile user then you’ve probably found the app to be a life saver on more than one occasion. After all, the little tile dongle could be attached to any object: keys, purse, wallet.. you name it, it could be attached.
So, previously, you would have a Tile placed on an object that you frequently misplaced. When the inevitable happened, all you’d need to do was open up the app on your smartphone–or visit the company’s web app–and you would push a button. Said lost item would then begin to sing, as long as you were within about 100 feet of the object, and the hunt for “where’s that noise coming from” would begin.
The second generation of Tile brings about many ways to help make its users’ lives even easier.

UPDATED FEATURES
The new iteration of Tile brings along a device that has a much slimmer footprint. The last generation Tile was a whopping 0.5 inches thick, which is a pretty bulky device; however, the company conveniently left out any measurements for the new generation.
The Tile ring has also been upgraded to 90 decibels, which is roughly three times louder than the previous generation. That means you shouldn’t have a problem hearing your keys when they’re in the pocket of a pair of pants that just happens to be sitting under three loads of laundry.
There are also three ways to find devices, too. The new Tiles have a giant “e” button on them that basically opens up a two-way channel. So if you have your keys (for once) but not your phone, then you can simply press the “e” on your Tile and perk up your ears while listening out for your phone. This works even if your phone is on silent or vibrate.
Let’s say you don’t have your keys or your phone. How can you find your tiles then? Now you can simply jump onto the computer and activate the Tile’s rings from there.
GETTING SOCIAL
The last feature is probably one of the more exciting ones. With GPS capabilities, users can turn their phones into Tiles. What’s notable about this? Let’s say you leave your phone on the bus, but there happens to be a Tile user on the same bus. Without the other Tile user realizing, their phone will send the GPS location of your phone to the web app so you can locate it.
AVAILABILITY
You can actually go to Tile’s site now and order the second generation device. One Tile will set you back about $25, but if you buy them in groups then you get a pretty significant discount. A set of four is only $70 rather than $100. The only real downside is that the battery inside each Tile only lasts about a year, so you’ll have to keep buying them over and over every year.
