Nokia Treasure Tag
Easily attachable to your keys, your bag, or even your wallet, the Nokia Treasure Tag is linked to your Lumia smartphone and alerts you when your valuables become separated. The Nokia Treasure Tag is a very compact accessory that offers convenience and practicality to users.
Pairing is simple – either use NFC (Near Field Communication) to connect, or search for the Tag with Bluetooth. When pairing for the first time to your smartphone, you will be prompted to download the app. So the next time you leave the house without one or the other, the two will emit a loud tone to alert you of this fact and should a situation arise whereby you miss the alert for some reason, then the app will help you to locate the lost item on a map.
