This is an anti-theft device for the latest smart phones or tablet. It is equipped with a photo sensor and a low energy Bluetooth “electronic leash” function to prevent wallets, purses, passport holders, mobile phones and any other valuables from being stolen or lost. It can work with any lady’s hand bag, wallet, or motorcycle accessory box.

The device is designed with two methods of protection. First, the Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE 4.0) enabled “electronic leash” triggers an alarm when your phone or wallet is removed beyond a set range. Second, a photo-sensor triggers an alarm when your wallet is opened without your knowledge. Both alarms trigger both an alarm sound to alert you as well as a phone alert so you can take preventative action within seconds.

This product has been granted utility patents in China and Taiwan. The Chinese patent number is ZL2014 2 0318311.8, ZL2014 2 0317683.9. The patent is registered with patentee: Huang Bai Jun.

Key Features:
Loss prevention
There are two ways for loss prevention
• Range alarm: When your Tag is separated at a distance of up to 50ft (user selectable), your Tag and Smartphone will emit an audible and visual alert, notifying you of the separation of your valuables. When you come back into range, the alarms will stop.
• Photo Sensor alarm: when the light sensor detects light, for example through an intruder opening your wallet, the buzzer and synced smart phone or tablet will both sound alerts.

- Support multiple BLE smart devices (Maximum 4 tags), each tag can be configured individually for different application.

- User definable alerting distane.
- Two way FindMe function for iPhone / iPad and Key Tag.
- Automatically reconnect each tag to iPhone / iPad after wakeup from sleep mode.
(If you turn off this App and Bluetooth function for extending your battery purpose. Please make sure to turn on Bluetooth function from iPhone and this App to resume the normal function. This App can automatic reconnect each tag within 1-2 minutes. If tag is in the deep sleep mode, you may need to press button from tag to wake it up).
- Call alert service from the Key Tag in noisy environment or if the iPhone is on mute mode. When a call comes in, the Key Tag will provide a call alert to the user. (Call alert service can be audio, vibrate, or color lights to remind the user).
- Automatically set Map location for user when iPhone and Key Tag are out of the "Link Loss" range (i.e. for Can Finder or last missing items locations). If the user does not use the Key Tag "Link Loss" for automatically set functions, you can manually use the App to enable set Map functions for the "PlaceMarkPin" setting. The App will show P message to remind you that smart tag has Map location for you to review.
- Support "Airplane Mode".
- Customizable “Alert Tones” for each tag.
- Built-in advance power saving mode and reliable connection with high sensibility.

Special Notes:
- Required Bluetooth 4.0 enabled iPhone and iPad to work: iPhone 6/6 Plus; iPhone 5/5S/5C and iPhone 4S and iPod Touch 5th gen and new iPad 4 and up; iPad mini and up.
- Continue use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
