Tile’s Sport and Style respond when you call them

Extended range and Alexa support makes these new Tiles even harder to lose

When you’ve lost your keys, somebody asking where you saw them last is about as helpful as a spoon in a sword fight. But with Tile’s new Style (pictured) and Sport trackers (£30 each, £50 for two) you can use voice commands to ask Alexa or Google Assistant to ring them, revealing exactly where you saw them last – even if they’re underwater. If they’re outside of Bluetooth range – which has been doubled to 200m – it’ll show you their last known location, and the redesigned proximity meter will let you know if you’re getting hotter or colder in your search. They work the other way too, so if you’ve got your Tile but can’t find your phone, you can make it ring.

About

Stuff's second Tom has been writing for the magazine and website since 2006, when smartphones were only for massive nerds and you could say “Alexa” out loud without a robot answering. Over the years he’s written about everything from MP3s to NFTs, played FIFA with Trent Alexander-Arnold, and amassed a really quite impressive collection of USB sticks.
