Are you an Android user looking for an item finder similar to AirTags? You just found it!
Are you looking for a key finder similar to Apple’s AirTags that would work with your Android phone? We’ve got just the thing and it’s called a Chipolo!
We’ve all heard of Apple’s AirTags by now, and your first thought was probably ‘I could use a couple of those’.
But what if you’re an Android user and switching your Android phone for an iPhone is not something you’re willing to do?
What are AirTags and what do they do?
AirTags (and the Chipolo ONE Spot that also works with the Apple Find My app) are small round Bluetooth trackers that you can attach to your belongings to help you find them.
They connect to the Find My app on your iPhone and from there you can ring them or check their last known location on a map.
Do AirTags also work with Android phones?
The short answer is no. Apple’s AirTags only connect to the Find My app on Apple devices, but the good news is AirTags are not the only item tracker available.
If you’re looking for an AirTag alternative that will also work on Android, take a look at Chipolo ONE finders – they work both on iPhones and Android phones!
Can Chipolo Point finders do what AirTag trackers do?
The main benefit of the AirTags is that they can help you find your things when they are misplaced or when they get lost.
But most of the time, you don’t really lose your things. You forget where you put them or what pocket you had them in last.
And this is the main functionality of the Chipolo item locators. Created specifically to find misplaced things, the key finder has a very loud ring you’ll be able to hear from another room. And it works both ways too; if you double click your Chipolo, you will make your misplaced phone ring.
While the Chipolo also offers a community find feature, it is not as big as Apple’s, which expands to include almost every Apple device out there. To make up for the smaller community coverage, the Chipolo offers an additional feature – sharing your Chipolo with your loved ones.
Share your Chipolo Point key finder through Google's Find My Device app
You can create your own little closed community and share your Chipolo tracking tag with your family and friends through the Chipolo app.
A shared Chipolo will then connect to the phone that is closest and update the location information on all other Chipolo accounts and devices the Chipolo is shared with.

Main Chipolo pros
Keys are not the only thing we lose. How many times have you looked for your phone this week?
Find your phone
Chipolo can help you find your phone too! When you double press your Chipolo key finder, it will make your misplaced phone ring, even when it’s on silent.
Loud ring
The Chipolo ONE key finder has a loud 120dB melody that you will be able to hear from another room. It also offers 7 different melodies, so you can set up the one that catches your ear best.
Out of Range Alerts
Need a reminder to take your keys with you? Chipolo key locators will send a notification to your phone whenever they lose their Bluetooth connection, and you start moving away.

The Chipolo ONE Point key finder has a loud 120dB melody that you will be able to hear from another room and the Chipolo CARD Point has a 105 dB melody you'll pick up, no matter what pocket your wallet is hiding in.
A worldwide network ready to help you find your things

Google Home will help you search too
Your Nest speakers and displays at home can be part of your finding network too. Not sure if you lost your wallet or just forgot it at home? Chipolo Point can connect to Google devices at home and report their location through them.

Fits on your keyring
This one is anything but tech-related, but Chipolo finders for Android and iOS already have a hole you can use to attach the finder to your keys. No extra cost and no accessories – just take it out of the box and attach it to your things.
Durable materials
Another non-tech advantage is the material the Chipolo is made of. Smart finders are mostly used for your keys or other belongings you take with you every day. Which means they get moved, tossed around, dropped, and scratched on the regular. The plastic the Chipolo trackers are made of is durable and will have your tracking tag looking fresh even after a year of adventures in your pockets.
