Morning All,
Does anyone use tile with esphome? Is it all possible?
No
Guess not
With an ESP32 you can see them with the Bluetooth.
But if I recall correctly ESPHome says it was a changing Mac address so I gave up on that.
But there is a tile integration in HA since a few weeks ago. (Or perhaps months)
Its not the greatest unless you have an old phone you constantly leave plugged in and at home
“The official Tile mobile app handles the actual tracking of Tile devices using the mobile device’s Bluetooth and GPS.”
i track my tiles on a NUC with bt-mqtt-gateway. this has been working great for over a year now. the tiles pro have a very good range, don’t change MACs and i don’t see why it shouldn’t work with the esphome BLE tracker, once you determined the tile’s MAC.
Sounds promising, how do you determine the mac I can’t seem to work out which one it is.
Also the is there a way to trigger the alarm on them via your setup.
