page Tile Instructions on how to use Tile to track devices in Home Assistant. 2017-11-08 20:40:00 true false true true tile.png 0.58 Presence Detection Cloud Polling

The tile platform allows Home Assistant to utilize Tile® Bluetooth trackers. The official Tile mobile app handles the actual tracking of Tile devices using the mobile device's Bluetooth and GPS.

To integrate Tile into Home Assistant, add the following section to your configuration.yaml file:

device_tracker:
  - platform: tile
    username: email@address.com
    password: MY_PASSWORD_123

{% configuration %} username: description: the email address for the Tile account required: true type: string password: description: the password for the Tile account required: true type: string monitored_variables: description: the Tile types to monitor; valid values are TILE and PHONE (default is for all types to be included) required: false type: list show_inactive: description: whether to show expired/disabled Tiles required: false type: boolean {% endconfiguration %}

Multiple Tile accounts can be used by repeating the tile platform. Tracked devices in known_devices.yaml will be named tile_<tile_identifier>. You can find <tile_identifier> in the Tile app by clicking on a tile.
