Tibe - User Guide
1 About TiBe
Your TiBe is a Bluetooth® Smart device that lets you easily locate your belongings using your smartphone as a relay.
By attaching a TiBe to your keys, for example, your smartphone will monitor them for you.
If you lose your keys, the TiBe Connect app will show the last location where your smartphone saw the keys.
If your keys are nearby, you can make them ring… and find them!
