There are a number of companies out there that manufacture a product to help you keep track of certain objects. This could be your key ring, your own car, or any other object that you want to monitor its location. Sadly, these products are being used by people who want to track, follow, and harass other individuals. Which has in turn created an unsafe environment for many people around the world.
There are two main companies vying for this market, Apple and Tile. And each of these companies have been working to help combat these types of issues. Sadly, the current solution for all this means that you yourself needs to be proactive about this tracking issue. And this means you'll need to install two apps on your phone to check and see if you're being tracked by products from one of these two companies.
Apple is the most popular brand in this market so we'll start with them and then I'll show you how to do the scan using the Tile app
