You can share each of your Tiles with one other email address, or you can subscribe to Tile Premium or Premium Protect and share with unlimited people.
Sharing a Tile means you and someone you trust can update the Tile’s location, ring the Tile, look for its last known location on the map, and ask to be notified when the Tile is found.
Two Ways to Share your Tile

- In the Tile app, Select the Tile you want to share.

Viewing a Shared Tile
If you have an existing Tile account and someone has shared their Tile with you:
- The shared Tile appears in your app as “shared”.
- Tap the shared Tile.
- Scroll down to and Select Shared by to see who shared their Tile with you.
If you do not have an existing Tile account and someone has shared their Tile with you:
- You will receive a message from the Tile’s owner that they want to share their Tile with you. The message includes a link to download the Tile app.
- Download the Tile app.

Sharing my Tile with Someone Who has a Different Device
As long as the person you’re trying to share your Tile with has the app on their device and they have a Tile account, you can share your Tile.
If they don’t have the Tile app or an account, you can send them an invitation to create a Tile account via email.
Ringing a Shared Tile on Both Devices
Both devices can ring the shared Tile as long as the device is within Bluetooth range of the Tile. You can ring a shared Tile one user at a time. Make sure both devices have the most up-to-date Tile app version.
