Compatible EcosystemiOS and Android

The Chipolo CARD is a slim, Bluetooth-only tracker designed to slip into wallets and passports. It uses Chipolo's app-based finding network (not Apple Find My or Google Find My Device), with community crowd-finding to locate lost items beyond Bluetooth range. Compatible with both iOS and Android via the Chipolo app, it features a replaceable coin-cell battery (roughly 12 months per charge), a modest audible ringer, and IP67 water resistance. The card form factor suits minimalists and travelers who prioritize slim profiles over the precision of UWB. Network reach remains smaller than Apple/Google, and reliance on Chipolo's app ecosystem limits discoverability compared to billion-device Find My networks.
