Choosing the Right App for Your Clip, Card, or Tag
The new generation of Pebblebee Clip, Card, and Tag gives you full flexibility — whether you use Android or iOS. With support for both Google’s Find Hub and Apple Find My, Pebblebee has you covered no matter which phone you use.
Universal Flexibility
When you choose a Pebblebee device, you gain the freedom to track what matters most — across the world’s two largest finding networks. Here’s what each version supports:
Clip, Card, and Tag for Android → work with Google’s Find Hub and the Pebblebee App.
Clip, Card, and Tag for iOS → work with Apple Find My™ and the Pebblebee App.
Clip, Card, and Tag Universal → work with either Google’s Find Hub (Android) or Apple Find My™ (iOS), along with the new Pebblebee App.
Which App Should You Use?
Your ideal app depends on your phone type, preferences, and how you plan to track your items. Below, you’ll find key differences to help you decide.
