So, How Does This Magic Work?
Forget clunky GPS trackers or hiring a tiny elf to follow your tools around. ONE-KEY Tracking is all about Bluetooth® magic. Here's the gist:
- Your Milwaukee pals: Many Milwaukee power tools come with Bluetooth built right in. These are the cool kids of the toolbox, ready to be tracked with ease.
- The Not-So-Chatty Tags: For your non-Bluetooth tools (looking at you, trusty screwdriver!), you can snag ONE-KEY TICK™ Tags. These little guys are like silent guardians, beeping out their location via Bluetooth when scanned by the app.
- The ONE-KEY App: This is your mission control center. Download it on your phone or tablet, and it'll use Bluetooth to scan for nearby tools and tags. The app then shows you their last seen location on a map.
But wait, there's more! This isn't just a glorified "find my phone" for tools. ONE-KEY Tracking boasts a Community Bluetooth® Network. Here's the amazing part: If your precious drill goes missing outside of Bluetooth range, ANY other phone with the ONE-KEY app nearby can anonymously ping its location back to you! Talk about a nosy neighborhood watch for tools!
But What About When My Phone Dies? CAN'T TRACK A DEAD PHONE, RIGHT?
Hold on there, comedian. The beauty of ONE-KEY Tracking is that it's smarter than your average battery. Even if the tool's battery is dead, it can still send out a signal when it comes in range of another phone with the app. So, that missing hammer might just be hiding in plain sight, waiting for a friendly phone to give you a nudge.
QuickTip: Read a little, pause, then continue.
Pro Tip: Label your tools with their names in the app. Trust us, "The One Named Bartholomew" is much easier to track down than "Generic Drill #3".*
FAQ: You Ask, We Hilariously Answer!
How to turn on Bluetooth tracking for my ONE-KEY tools?
Easy there, Einstein! The Bluetooth functionality should already be on in your ONE-KEY compatible tools. Just download the app and get scanning.
Tip: Read slowly to catch the finer details.
How to add a non-Milwaukee tool to the tracking system?
 |
No worries, brand loyalist! Just slap a ONE-KEY TICK™ Tag on that trusty screwdriver, and the app will do the rest.
How do I report a missing tool in the app?
Tip: Reading in short bursts can keep focus high.
Don't panic! Mark the tool as missing in the app. This activates the Community Bluetooth® Network, and any nearby phone with the app can help you track it down.
How does the Community Bluetooth Network work?
Think of it like a digital search party for tools! Phones with the app anonymously ping the location of your missing tool, even if it's outside of Bluetooth range.
QuickTip: Don’t ignore the small print.
How accurate is the tool tracking?
The accuracy depends on how close your phone or another phone with the app is to the missing tool. But hey, any lead is better than no lead, right?
