The `tile` platform allows Home Assistant to utilize [Tile® Bluetooth trackers](https://www.thetileapp.com).
|
|
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:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
device_tracker:
|
|
- platform: tile
|
|
username: email@address.com
|
|
password: MY_PASSWORD_123
|
|
monitored_variables:
|
|
- TILE
|
|
- PHONE
|
|
```
|
