Finally, a Bluetooth tracking app that combines both key finding features and asset tracking for both consumers and professionals. Can easily track anywhere from one to hundreds of items. Removes the need to have more than one Bluetooth tracking app running in the background. Most Bluetooth tracking apps are specifically designed for "key finding" features that allow you to track and receive alerts on a limited number of items such as your keys, wallet, or purse. However, they perform poorly for professionals trying to track their entire fleet of inventory. Virtually all professionals need to have "key finding" features since they all have keys, wallet, purse etc... Conversely at some point most consumers will likely require some form of inventory tracking if they ever go on the road with items they need to keep track of. For instance on a camping trip or a vacation. Now you can have both apps in one. How it works: Check Inventory: Tap the "Check Inventory" button to see if all your items are nearby. To pinpoint the exact location of an individual item you can use our "Geiger Counter" feature or simply select the "Start Alarm" button and the TallyGo Tracker will sound an alert and flash an LED light. Find Phone: Double click on the TallyGo Tracker to make your phone ring, even when it is on silent. Two Way Separation Alerts: Be alerted if you ever leave your item behind OR be alerted if you ever leave your phone behind (TallyGo Tracker will beep to let you know you left your phone behind). Share a TallyGo Tracker: This feature is useful to both consumers and professionals that manage a team. For the typical consumer there are some items that are convenient to share with other members of your household. For instance, remote controllers. By sharing you provide other members of the household the ability to easily locate the misplaced item. For professionals managing a team you can easily share your tools with members of your team and view current item locations and last seen locations from your online TallyGo Tracker Management Console. Create Categories and Custom Lists on the FLY: After you pack your items for say a camping trip or for a show, create a new Category for instance "My Fishing Trip" and automatically populate the list with items found within Bluetooth range of your phone (25 - 100 meters). When you are ready to return home, simply select your custom category you created to see if you left any items behind. Works equally as well for contractors arriving and leaving a jobsite. Network Search: When other TallyGo users comes within Bluetooth range of your lost item, you may receive a notification of both the time and location of your lost item. WIFI Safe Area: When you connect to a WIFI network you mark as safe, separation alerts are temporarily disabled in both the TallyGo app and TallyGo Tracker to prevent false alarms. Convenient for people that live in large homes or work is large office buildings. Auto Silence: Separation Alerts are temporarily disabled on both the phone and TallyGo Tracker when silencing your phone. Take a Selfie: The TallyGo Tracker can double as a wireless selfie button to allow you to take the perfect selfie or take a group picture without having to ask someone else for help. Beacon Moved Alert: Be alerted when someone moves of picks up one of your items.
