Track your belongings using your smartphone
Do you know that feeling when you can't find your keys, mobile, bag or even your car when you are already running late on a busy day? Three French brothers set out to solve this issue and gave life to Wistiki. Wistiki is a lightweight connection device that helps users relax by locating items through a smartphone.
Users can hook or stick a Wistiki onto their belongings and then use their smartphone to find it by making the Wistiki ring. Up to 10 Wistiki devices can be managed using the same smartphone.
Wistiki also has a reverse ringtone, which allows users to to 'ring' their smartphone by pressing on the Wistiki button. This allows users to find their smartphone even if it’s on silent mode.
The Wistiki app allows users to find their items on a GPS map. Activate the electronic leash mode to receive an alert when an item moves away from the smartphone. This allows users to closely monitor items and even alerts users if their belongings are being stolen. Users can join the Wistiki users and be part of a community that will help find personal belongings.
The uniqueness of the product is also characterised by the fact that Wistiki users form a community in which they can help each other to find their lost possessions. Beyond the range of BLE (up to 50m), users can rely on this community which is both passive and active. The passive community is made up of people who are in the range of the user's Wistiki and passively actualise the location of the lost item. Wistiki is very keen to keep its user information confidential and therefore users are the only person who can see the location of their personal belongings.
The so-called active community is even more interesting. Have you ever thought to interact with the person who found your lost personal things? Now it is possible! A person who finds your tagged belonging just has to download the application to engage an instant conversation with you. The talks are anonymous and your information will not be disclosed.
