5. Operating Instructions

5.1. Finding Your Items

Once your Midlocater Air Tracker Tag is paired, you can locate your items in several ways:

• Play Sound: If your item is within Bluetooth range (up to 100m/350ft), open the Find My app, select your item, and tap 'Play Sound'. The tracker will emit a loud beep (up to 90dB) to help you locate it.
• View on Map: If your item is out of Bluetooth range, the Find My network (a vast network of Apple devices) will anonymously and securely update its last known location on the map in your Find My app.
• Ask Siri: You can also use Siri to locate your items by saying, for example, "Hey Siri, find my keys."

5.2. Left-Behind Reminder Function

To prevent leaving your valuables behind, enable the 'Notify When Left Behind' feature in the Find My app. If your item moves out of Bluetooth range, the tracker will send a reminder notification to your iOS device within 10 minutes (ensure notifications are enabled for the Find My app).

You can link and manage up to 32 Midlocater Smart Tracker Tags simultaneously within the Find My app, allowing you to track multiple items efficiently.
