You put your wireless in-ear headphones somewhere and can't remember where.

At this point, this app is very usefull. Just select the device and follow the signal. You can even mark a device as favourite so you can find it faster when it happens again. Otherwise the devices you connected to will be persistently stored in a list. Long press on a device in the list to get some additional information about it.
