In the event that a bag or suitcase is lost, open the app, select an item, and tap the \u2018Find\u2019 button to pull up the tracker\u2019s approximate location on a map. The app will look for the tracker and send a signal to connect. Even if you don\u2019t lose your luggage, having a tracker will give you peace of mind.<\/p>\n
