Losing your wallet is the ultimate inconvenience — credit cards, I.D., money are all gone in an instant.
The Wallet TrackR and accompanying iPhone app aim to prevent this problem through the power of tech. Here’s how it works: Place the “TrackR card,” a rectangular Bluetooth device, into your wallet; when it gets separated from your iPhone or iPad, the app alerts you. In case you don’t hear the alert, the app also photographs your wallet’s location at the time it was lost.
For those prone to losing their phones, the technology works both
ways: Your wallet can also alert you if you’re leaving your phone
behind.
Wallet TrackR works with the iPad mini, the iPhone 4S and 5, as well as the latest iPad and iPod Touch.
Its official website
looks similar to a Kickstarter page, with the company asking for
$250,000 in funding with “27 days left.” So far, Wallet TrackR has
raised just over $9,200.
