Life360 announced a signed non-binding letter of intent with Hubble Network to become the exclusive consumer application of their satellite Bluetooth technology. Through this strategic partnership, Life360 will leverage Hubble's global satellite infrastructure and its extensive network of over 66 million smartphones to introduce "Find with Life360," a global location-tracking network. Hubble's breakthrough achievement of connecting Bluetooth devices to a satellite tracking network avoids previous limitations of Bluetooth location-tracking devices.

Find with Life360 has the potential to herald a new era in location tracking and surpass the finding network capabilities of Apple and Google. Track Anything, Anywhere: Integrating Life360's Tile Bluetooth trackers onto the Find with Life360 network seeks to ensure important items can be found and recovered, regardless of where on the globe. The combined Hubble and Life360 network will be designed to make any item findable without the need for cellular connectivity.

Imagine losing keys while hiking in a National Park, Find with Life360 will make pinpointing their location easy, transforming a potential ordeal into a minor blip on the adventure radar. With Life360's platform-agnostic approach, available on both Android and iPhone devices, the convenience and assurance of locating items, whether indoors or out, are now within reach for everyone. Find with Life360 aims to be compatible with the new Tile Pro and Tile Slim launching in the second half of 2024.

An Advancement in Wireless Innovation: Hubble's ground-to-orbit technology marks a significant advancement in wireless connectivity, extending a Bluetooth device's range from mere feet to hundreds of miles. Hubble has proven its technology by successfully launching two satellites into orbit, each already hosting live, working devices on its network. With a constellation of 96 satellites planned to be in orbit by 2028, pending approval of launch dates, Hubble expects to provide connectivity globally, irrespective of cellular reception.

Developer Friendly: Find with Life360 will also provide API access to developers, allowing them to integrate any item onto its map seamlessly. Life360 aims to establish itself as the universal location service for all essential tools, advancing its goal to improve everyday family life for its members. Find with Life360 intends to prioritize developer-friendly functionality, providing easy integration and empowering developers with the freedom to customize their location-tracking experiences.

Theft Protection: A differentiating feature, Find with Life360 prioritizes user control, particularly regarding theft protection. Users on the Find with Life360 network will have the option to opt out of overly intrusive alerts. While its competitors inundate users with aggressive anti-stalking notifications, rendering Bluetooth devices ineffective for theft recovery by alerting thieves to their presence and location, the company offer a solution.

Similar to Tile devices in Anti-Theft Mode, users can opt out of these burdensome alerts by scanning a government ID, allowing them to reclaim control over their tracking experience.
