How to Pick a Great Tech Gift for Valentine's Day

With Valentine's Day just around the corner, right now is the perfect time to start thinking about present ideas. If you're in the market for Valentine's Day tech gifts, Tile Bluetooth trackers might be exactly what you are looking for.

Why Tile Makes a Great Valentine's Day Technology Gift

Tired of the same old flowers and chocolate routine? Think outside the box and give your loved one something unique this year. There are all sorts of great reasons to pick Tile for your Valentine's Day present.

For a partner who loves tech, a new gadget can be an exciting option. The Tile's ability to track items with Bluetooth is both entertaining and practical. Your partner will love getting to test out its capabilities. With Bluetooth tracking, water-resistant casings, and long-lasting batteries, Tile trackers have the specs to impress even the smartest techie.

The great thing about Valentine's Day tech gifts is that they keep on giving. Unlike a box of chocolates that is gone in a flash, the Tile continues to be helpful for years. Whenever your partner pulls up their Life360 app to look for a lost remote or a shy pet, they'll think of you.

Even if you aren't specifically looking for Valentine's Day tech gifts, a Tile may be the ideal present. Often, the most romantic gift is simply showing you know your partner well. When you have a running joke about how much your loved one loses their phone, a phone tracker can be a very thoughtful present.

Want to take your present-giving to the next level? Instead of just handing it to your partner, send them on a fun little hunt. All you need to do is have a Tile and make sure your partner knows how to use the Life360 app. Once you pick out a present, here's how you can use Tile to surprise your valentine.

1. Stash a Tile inside the wrapping of your present.

2. Name the Tile something basic, like Wallet. Make sure the name is something you would accidentally leave behind at your partner's home or office.

3. Hide your wrapped present with the Tile in a spot you know your partner will be for Valentine's Day.

4. Disconnect the Tile from your app beforehand. Due to privacy reasons, Tiles are only ringable from a single device at a time.

5. Wait until Valentine's Day, and then call or text your valentine. Tell them you forgot your item and need their help finding it.

6. Open the Life360 app on your phone, tap the device, and select Share to let your partner access your Tile's information from their phone.

7. Get them to ring your Tile and surprise them with their gift!

The surprise of getting a gift when they least expect it is sure to create a heartwarming Valentine's Day memory. Especially when you cannot be with your partner in person, using a Tile to give them their present adds an exciting touch to gift-giving. This hilariously adorable prank is sure to put a smile on your partner's face.

With these tips, it's easy to plan a great Valentine's Day! Whether you're a longtime Tile user or a first-time customer, Tiles can make a special and memorable gift. New to using Tile?
