Operating Instructions
Finding Items Nearby
When your VOCOlinc tracker is within Bluetooth range (up to 200 feet without obstacles), you can use the Apple Find My app to make it ring. The built-in speaker produces a loud sound (80-100 decibels) to help you locate your item quickly. You can also ask Siri for assistance.

Finding Items Far Away
If your item is outside of Bluetooth range, the VOCOlinc tracker leverages the vast Apple Find My network, composed of hundreds of millions of Apple devices worldwide. The location of your tag will be anonymously updated by nearby Apple devices, allowing you to view its last known location on a map within the Find My app. You can even use the app to get navigation directions to its vicinity.

Left Behind Remind and Lost Mode
- Left Behind Remind: Receive instant alerts on your iOS device if you leave your item behind, helping you prevent loss in the first place.
- Lost Mode: If your VOCOlinc tracker is lost, activate Lost Mode in the Find My app. You will be automatically notified when any device in the Apple Find My network detects your tag's location.

Privacy Protection
The Apple Find My app network is designed with privacy in mind. All location data is encrypted and anonymous, ensuring that your location history is not stored on the VOCOlinc tracker itself.
Maintenance
Water Resistance
The VOCOlinc Key Finder tag features an IP67 water-resistant rating, making it durable against splashes and dust. This rating means it can withstand immersion in up to 1 meter of water for up to 30 minutes.

Battery Replacement
The VOCOlinc Air Tracker Tag is powered by a replaceable CR2032 coin cell battery, which typically lasts over one year. When the battery level is low, you will receive a notification on your iOS device prompting you to replace it. To replace the battery, gently open the tag's casing, remove the old CR2032 battery, and insert a new one with the positive (+) side facing up. Close the casing securely.
