Chipolo trackers have proven unreliable and frustrating to deal with. Here’s why:
Poor Product Quality : Half of my Chipolo trackers stopped working in just 6 months.
Unreliable Features : The advertised tracking features barely function in real-life scenarios.
Complicated Support : Their return process is unnecessarily difficult and seems designed to make customers give up.
Save yourself the trouble and consider alternatives.

Google should really make their own trackers like Apple.

They’d have to make it actually work though. My Google devices fail to locate themselves half the time unless they’re connected to the internet.

Google’s Find My implementation is so unreliable right now. I can’t trust it for anything valuable.

Chipolo’s trackers are bad partly because of Google’s poorly implemented Find My Device network.

It seems like Chipolo has issues too, but yeah, Google making its own trackers could improve the ecosystem.

Google spent all of 2024 working on Find My, and it’s still opt-in by default. They’re missing the point of creating a useful ecosystem.

Nobody will activate it unless it’s on by default. They need to rethink this approach.

Part of the delay was waiting for Apple to implement unknown device detection in iOS.

You’d think Google would have ironed out their own issues in that extra year.

I’ve had good experiences with Pebblebee trackers. They work well most of the time, and I appreciate their compatibility with both Apple and Google ecosystems.

Totally agree. Chipolo sucks.

I’ll stick to Samsung tags until Google gets their act together.
