The best Bluetooth trackers of 2025: Our top picks to keep tabs on your stuff

The Apple AirTag is designed to work seamlessly with Apple devices like iPhones, iPads, and MacBooks. This coin-sized tracker uses a built-in U1 ultra-wideband chip for Precision Finding and Apple’s extensive Find My network to find your missing items. 

Review: Apple AirTag 

The device-software combo makes it easy to locate anything attached to an AirTag. If you open the Find My app on any Apple device and select the appropriate tag, the selected AirTag will beep, helping you to find a missing item if it’s nearby. 

Though it’s slim enough to fit in pockets and bags, the AirTag lacks a built-in loop. This means you’ll have to buy a separate accessory to attach it to your bag or a pet’s collar. This potential extra purchase is a common complaint among buyers. However, the holders come in many stylish shapes for a myriad of uses and tastes. I’ve bought wristbands for my kids to wear their AirTags at the park and keychain holders for my car keys.

The AirTag’s battery is rated to last one year and can be replaced with another CR2032 unit afterward. One sells for $29, and a  is typically priced at $99. You can grab the latter for $65 on Amazon during Black Friday sales.

The Chipolo One Point is hands-down the best Android version of an AirTag money can buy. This $21 tracker is a keyfob-sized device similar to a Tile and features a replaceable CR2032 battery that can last up to one year. 

Review: Chipolo One Point

ZDNET’s Adrian Kingsley-Hughes tested and raved in his review of the Chipolo One Point.

“If you’re an Android user who’s been jealous of iPhone users having AirTags, this is your chance to bring that feeling to an end,” Kingsley-Hughes said. “I’ve tested the finding capability of these Chipolo finders, and they are super accurate, with the ability to locate the tags when at a distance — such as hidden in a plant pot on a street or when stuffed down the back of a couch.”

The SwitchBot Wallet Tracker is a card-shaped Bluetooth tracker that works exclusively with the Apple Find My network. It’s the best wallet tracker I’ve tested yet, and costs about $25. In addition, during Black Friday sales, you can save an extra 28% with promo code BFCM28. 

The device works like an AirTag, but has a slim, flat shape that allows it to fit in more places and is perfect for wallets. The battery lasts up to three years opposed to an AirTag’s one year. In addition, it sports an IP67 waterproof rating and a loud customizable alarm, so you can change how it sounds from the SwitchBot app on your phone.

Review: SwitchBot Wallet Tracker

Like an AirTag, the SwitchBot Wallet Tracker Card lets you know when you’ve left it behind to prevent permanent loss. You can use the Find My app on your iPhone to quickly search for it in your surroundings or see a map for its location. You can also use the Tracker Card to ring your iPhone when you can’t find it, even if it’s on silent mode.

The Tile Pro’s tracking range extends to 500 feet, double the range of Apple’s AirTag and the Samsung SmartTag. It also outreaches its sibling, the Tile Mate. 

Its elongated form houses a larger-than-average speaker for a more discernible alarm, which is particularly convenient for its tracking range. The device also has an IP67 to protect it from dust and rain, as well as a replaceable CR2032 battery. It also has a hole at the top of the tile, so you can easily attach the tag to your keychain. 

The Tile Pro tag is on sale for Black Friday for $25. Even without a discount, it is well worth the money if you want the most extended tracking range. That said, unreliable charging remains one of Tile Pro users’ biggest complaints. The Tile Pro works with the Tile app, Amazon Alexa, and Google Home.

The Samsung SmartTag2 is at its best when paired with a Samsung Galaxy smartphone. The Galaxy SmartTag2 is a formidable Bluetooth tracker with a loud speaker, a replaceable battery, and a rugged build.

The SmartTag2 Bluetooth tracker is thinner than its predecessor, with a bigger keyring and a metal insert inside that provides greater durability. Beyond its new design, the SmartTag 2 increases its battery life to 500 days. It also has features like the Power Saving Mode, Lost Mode, and an improved Compass View over its prior iteration. Customer reviews are mixed on battery life, but the SmartTag has a replaceable CR2032 battery.

Unlike the picks above, the SmartTag2 can also trigger smart home automation. Press the tag to turn on lights, kickstart air conditioning, or even open the garage door. However, it’s only compatible with appliances in the SmartThings ecosystem. This is more limited than the Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple Home Kit ecosystems.

Most Bluetooth trackers have replaceable or rechargeable batteries. If a tracker lacks a replaceable battery, its manufacturer often incentivizes trade-ins with discounts. 

Many batteries last between one and two years. Your manufacturer will provide this information in the owner’s manual and on its website so you can plan when to replace it. 

A Bluetooth tracker either attaches to a personal item like a backpack, or it can reside inside an item like a wallet. 

Next, you enable location tracking by connecting the tracker via the manufacturer’s app. This way you can have a visual of your item’s location. Bluetooth trackers have a limited range, with an average of 200 to 300 feet. This means you must be within the signal range to receive accurate information. 

Some items, such as Wi-Fi speakers, might interfere with the signal, so use the devices in an area with less potential interference so you can receive the strongest signal. 

Both the Tile Pro and the Samsung Galaxy SmartTag 2 claim a maximum range of around 400 feet.

The water-resistant Chipolo Bluetooth tracker alerts you to missing items through its app, emitting a 120-decibel sound. The device also digitally nudges you if you leave something behind, so you find your stuff before you lose it. 

If your Chipolo is out of range, you can check the app’s map for its last known location. You can also set up voice commands for Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, and Apple’s Siri. The tracker is compatible with both Apple and Google phones. 

Chipolo has a two-year replacement coin battery and a 200-foot connection range.

The Tile Mate attaches to your items and can be easily activated through the app. You can also use the device to make your phone ring, even if it’s on silent. 

In addition, the Tile Mate sports an SOS alert, but you must have the Life360 app installed and a registered account. 

This tracker is compatible with iOS and Android. It has an impressive 350-foot range and an IP68 water-resistance rating. Unfortunately, the three-year battery isn’t replaceable. 

For Black Friday, the Tile Mate is on sale for $15.

The Tile Slim’s credit card-style design is perfect to slide in your wallet. There’s no keyring hole like its sibling, the Tile Mate. If you want to attach it to anything, you could plausibly use a separate ID card holder keychain.  

Like the Tile Mate, the Tile Slim helps you find your missing things through the app, can ring your silenced phone, and trigger an SOS feature through the Life360 app. 

The tracker has an IP68 water resistance rating, a 350-foot Bluetooth range, 104-decibel volume, and three-year non-replaceable battery. 

During Black Friday sales, the Tile Slim is on sale for $20. 

The Pebblebee Clip Tracker works with both Google’s Find My Device and Apple’s Find My network. You can get card, clip, or tag version of the tracker individually for $35 on Amazon.

In addition to emitting a sound to help you find your items, the tracker has an LED light to make your search even easier. 

Pebblebee says the USB-C compatible rechargeable battery lasts for 12 months on a single charge. The water-resistant tracker also has a 500-foot range.
