The SwitchBot Wallet Finder, a credit-card-sized device, helps you locate your wallet using Apple's Find My network. It's currently discounted for Black Friday.
Setup and Functionality
Setting up the Wallet Finder is simple through the Find My app. No separate SwitchBot app is required. Add the device, choose a name and emoji, and slip it into your wallet.
The Wallet Finder uses Bluetooth and the Find My network to track location. Nearby Apple devices anonymously relay the Wallet Finder's location to your Find My app. There are no subscription fees.
While it lacks the precision tracking of AirTags, the built-in speaker helps locate your wallet within Bluetooth range. Siri integration adds further convenience.
Safety and Considerations
The Wallet Finder is designed for recovering lost items, not for tracking people. It has anti-stalking features like alerts and an option for others to disable tracking. The battery lasts about three years and is not replaceable. Check out Best Smartwatches for Seniors: A Guide to Health and Safety for other tracking options.
