The Jim2 branded tile you have received is a proximity tracking device which once added to the iSearching app, can help you keep track of your belongings.
If you forget to take your belongings, you will be reminded with your smartphones’ alert. If your smartphone is left behind, you will be reminded with the tile alert.
