Chipolo CARD is the wallet option for people who want one tracker that suits either phone. It slips into a card slot at 2.5 mm thick and pairs with Apple Find My on an iPhone or Find Hub on Android. Instead of a sealed battery that eventually forces a replacement, it recharges on a Qi wireless pad and Chipolo rates each charge at up to a year. The IP67 rating covers immersion in 1 m of fresh water for up to 30 minutes. Chipolo lists a ring of about 110 dB, Bluetooth range up to 120 m, and a double-press that rings your phone. The charger is not in the box, so budget for one if you do not own a Qi pad. At $39 it is the second-cheapest wallet card here. We compared documented features and published prices.
