Terms of use

last updated · October 28, 2026

These terms govern your use of the Bluetooth Locator app for iPhone and iPad (“the app”), made by its developer (“we”, “us”). By downloading or using the app you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use the app.

01The App Store license

The app is licensed to you, not sold, under Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement (the “Standard EULA”). These terms add to it; where the two differ, the Standard EULA applies. You may use the app on Apple devices that you own or control, as the App Store's usage rules allow.

02Free features and the full version

Scanning, the device list and its filters, distance with warmer / colder, the finding tips and the connected-headphones alarm are free. The radar and the map are free to try: a minute of use in total, then ten seconds each time you open a device.

The full version is a one-time, non-consumable in-app purchase that unlocks the radar and the map without a time limit, Find on map, saved devices, Ring, proximity pings and accent colors.

• The purchase is made through Apple, at the price the App Store shows you before you confirm. It is not a subscription and never renews.
• It belongs to your Apple Account. Use Restore purchase in the app's Settings to unlock it on another device signed in with the same account. It is not shared through Family Sharing.
• Payments, refunds and billing questions are handled by Apple. To ask for a refund, go to reportaproblem.apple.com; we can't issue refunds ourselves.
• We may add features to the full version. If a feature you paid for has to be removed (for example because iOS no longer allows it), we will try to offer something comparable.

03What the app can and can't do

The app estimates distance from Bluetooth signal strength. That estimate is about ±30 % at best: walls, bodies, metal, water and other devices weaken and reflect the signal, so a device can read closer or farther than it is. The map's likely spot is a probability, not a position. In particular:

• A device can be found only while it is switched on and advertising. Many devices advertise only in certain states (earbuds out of the case, for example) or not at all while connected to a phone.
• Devices such as phones, AirPods and AirTags change their Bluetooth identity from time to time, so the app may not recognize them as the same device later.
• Ring works only on devices that support the standard Bluetooth Immediate Alert service.

We can't guarantee that the app will find any particular device, and the app is not a safety, security or emergency tool. Don't rely on it to locate people, pets or anything where a missed or wrong reading could cause harm.

04Use it responsibly

You agree to use the app lawfully and considerately. In particular, you agree not to:

• use the app to locate, follow, monitor or track a person, or to find someone else's belongings, without their consent;
• ring, or otherwise disturb, devices that aren't yours without the owner's permission;
• enter private property or other places you're not allowed to be while searching;
• copy, modify, resell or redistribute the app, or reverse engineer it except where the law allows.

While searching, watch where you are walking, and never use the app while driving or cycling.

05Permissions and your data

The app needs Bluetooth to scan. Location and Motion are optional and make the map work. What the app stores stays on your device; the privacy policy explains it in full. You are responsible for keeping your own backups.

06Other companies' devices and services

The app works with devices made by others, and links to Apple services such as Find My and Apple Maps. Those are governed by their makers' own terms, and we aren't responsible for how they work. The Bluetooth® word mark is owned by Bluetooth SIG, Inc.; AirPods, AirTag, Apple Maps and Find My are trademarks of Apple Inc.; other product names belong to their owners. Bluetooth Locator is not affiliated with or endorsed by any of them.

07Ownership

The app, its design, code and artwork belong to us and are protected by copyright and other laws. These terms don't give you any right to our name, icon or other brand features.

08Warranty

To the extent the law allows, the app is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We don't promise that the app will be error-free or available at all times. This doesn't affect any statutory rights you have as a consumer that can't be waived, such as the legal guarantee for digital content in the European Union.

09Liability

To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, or for loss of data, devices or other property, arising from your use of the app or your inability to use it, including a device that wasn't found. Our total liability to you is limited to the amount you paid for the app. Nothing in these terms limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or any other liability that can't be limited by law.

10Changes

We may update the app and these terms. When the terms change, we will update the date at the top of this page. If you keep using the app after a change, the updated terms apply; if you don't agree with them, stop using the app.

11Governing law

These terms are governed by the law of the country where we are established, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. If you are a consumer, you keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country where you live, and you may bring claims in its courts.
