If you’re not sure what these things do, their purpose is to help you find stuff you lose. Think of it as a universal lost and found. The idea is this: Attach the bluetooth tag to something, synch it to an app on your phone and never lose that stuff again. If you do lose it, mark it as “lost” in the app, and every other phone in the world that has the tracking app will keep an eye out for your stuff using .

Sounds good in theory - but that means you better pick the device that is more popular if you want the best chance of ever finding your computer. There are several manufacturers that offer these types of products, but as of today, these appear to be the most popular. And again, the more users the better. This concept also assumes that the thief didn’t find the tracker and throw it into a taxi or garbage truck. This is a recipe for a wild goose chase if you ask me. But hey, you could always just pretend like you’re playing Pokemon Go!
