TrackR pixel
TrackR pixel is a small, coin-sized Bluetooth device that easily attaches to all of your important items to make sure they never get lost. It lights up and rings loudly when you tap the Item Ringer button in the free TrackR app, which can be used to locate your items in seconds. TrackR pixel also comes with the Find My Phone Alexa Skill. If a user can’t find their phone, just say, “Alexa, ask TrackR to find my phone,” and Alexa will make it ring loudly, even on silent. If your phone isn’t at home, Alexa will say the address of its last known location. If your item is lost outside of Bluetooth range, like in a classroom, TrackR’s Crowd Locate network can help you find it. TrackR pixel is available now at www.TheTrackR.com.
