1 Introduction
FOBO TAG is a wireless device using Bluetooth® 5.0 technology to monitor your
belongings. Please ensure that your smart phone has Bluetooth® 4.0 or above capability
in order to use FOBO TAG.
Before starting to use FOBO TAG, please download the FOBO TAG app to your smart
phone, FOBO TAG App is available free of cost on Google play store and Apple play
store.
2 About FOBO TAG
As we go about our daily life, we are inundated with a lot of information and many things
for us to remember. With FOBO TAG, we aim to bring convenience to your daily living
by providing timely reminder or alert when you forget your belongings or about to lose
sight of your loved ones. FOBO TAG working with your smart phone applications could
monitor your loved ones or belongings from anywhere within Bluetooth range. (Note:
The distance varies according to different environment or surrounding e.g. building walls,
metal objects, human body, vegetation & water could affect the RF signal).
Worried about losing your important belongings, your pet or loved ones? TAG a
FOBO TAG to them for peace of mind. When you discover you lost your
belonging, pet or loved ones, simply enable WebSearchME. Any FOBO TAG
app user who happens to be in nearby vicinity of FOBO TAG, anywhere in the
world, will alert you via FOBO cloud the GPS location of the lost TAG. With
many existing FOBO app users all around the world, you have good chance of
locating your lost belonging, pet or loved ones.
Attach FOBO TAG to your personal items be it your handbag, laptop bag,
luggage, car key or any important belongings, and FOBO TAG will monitor them
for you. When you leave any Tagged belonging behind, RemindME function will
trigger your phone to alert and remind you to take your belonging with you. We
understand that at times you might not want to be disturbed by RemindME alerts;
example your laptop bag is safely placed at home and you are on the way leaving
your home to the cinema. Our smart SafeZone feature working with TimeZone
will prevent an alert. However during weekday, when you leave your home to the
office and forget your laptop, TimeZone will know it is time to go to office and it
will prompt an alert to remind you. (Note: SafeZone utilizes GPS/AGPS of your
smart phone to determine location. Turn on Wi-Fi on your smart phone for better
accuracy.)
When you misplace any belonging you can use FindME to search for it. Example
a car key misplaced under your sofa. FindME will be able to indicate the signal
strength for you to estimate how far you are away from your belonging. The
FOBO TAG can also be triggered to beep for ease of locating your belonging. But
if the TAG is not within vicinity, FindME will also display the GPS location
(with time and date) where your belonging was last disconnected with the phone.
This will help you trace where you misplaced your belonging. You can also locate
your smartphone with the help of TAG, you just need to long press “FOBO button”
5 | P a g e
on the TAG and your smartphone will loudly ring- even on silent. Provided the
both are within the bluetooth range.
You can also use FOBO TAG to monitor your belonging to ensure nobody moves
it. For example your desk drawer with important things inside. Just place a FOBO
TAG in your drawer and activate Don’tMoveME function. Once the drawer is
moved and you are within Bluetooth range, you will get an alert on your phone. If
you are out of range, you will get an alert with movement records showing the
movement history log when your phone gets back into Bluetooth range with the
FOBO TAG in your drawer.
For frequent traveler, you could imagine the boredom of waiting for your
checked-in luggage at arrival hall after a long tiring flight. Activate PromptME
feature for the TAG inside your luggage and you will get an alert once the
luggage get into range with your phone, typically within bluetooth range (Note:
Bluetooth range varies depending on surrounding things or building structure).
You are free to move around without having to wait beside the luggage carousel.
(Note: Due to Bluetooth protocol, PromptME works best when the app is active in
foreground when you are waiting for arrival of the TAGged luggage. Having the
app in background, you may experience some delay in detecting the FOBO TAG.
In some instances, you may already spot your luggage before the PromptME
alert).
When you need to walk into a dark and quiet area, e.g. back-street or under-
ground car park, you may want a method to alert your family members or friends
for help immediately in case you get into danger. With SOS.ME, you can set
FOBO TAG to watch over you for up to 60 minutes. Place the phone in your
pocket and hold the FOBO TAG in your hand. When you encounter a dangerous
situation, just throw the FOBO TAG away. Once the TAG is disconnected from
the phone, an SOS alert will be sent out to the list of people you had pre-set to
respond to your emergency situation. The SOS alert will also contain your GPS
location as well as an audio recording to allow your helpers to review the actual
situation that you are in. For other situations, you may use SOS trigger button in
the FOBO app for immediate trigger without using the FOBO TAG or timer.
All the above are example use cases of how you could use FOBO TAG. There are many
other ways of using FOBO TAG with all these smart features. Example, placing a FOBO
TAG by the main door with Don’tMoveME activated, to warn of any intruder. All you
need is to understand how the features work and with a little bit of imagination, you
could make FOBO TAG work better and more suited to your lifestyle needs.
We have designed FOBO TAG to work with coin cell battery so that you do not need to
worry about charging the device. FOBO TAG is also dust and splash proof (IP54) to
allow you to use it outdoor without any worry.
DISCLAIMER: FOBO TAG IS NOT AN ANTI-THEFT OR ANTI-KIDNAPPING
DEVICE. PLEASE CONTINUE TO TAKE PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES
AND TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY OF YOUR BELONGINGS OR LOVED
ONES AGAINST THEFT OR KIDNAPPING.

The coin cell battery (CR2025) could last up to one year on normal operation. Frequent
beeping and movement of the FOBO TAG will consume battery power and reduce
battery operating life.
It is advisable to change the battery once you get the battery alert to ensure proper
performance of FOBO TAG. Do not wait until battery is fully drained as you may never
know when you need to use FOBO TAG urgently.
You should be able to purchase CR2025 battery from your local electronics store or On-

SafeZone is a useful feature to enhance the usefulness of FOBO TAG. When in a safe
location, e.g. at home, user may not want to be alerted by out of range messages when
moving around in the house. User can create SafeZone in the General Settings -> Safe
Zone. SafeZone relies on signals from GPS, AGPS (via GSM network) & Wi-Fi to
determine the location.
User can set multiple SafeZone for each TAG, e.g. home, office, friend’s house, etc.
Refer to the below illustrations on how to set up a safe zone.

is unable to determine its location accurately and the instant where phone
reception signal returns to normal and the phone is able to determine its location,
the alert will sound immediately. At times this may be a few hundred meters away
from the intended distance from SafeZone

4.7 Time Zone
There could be times when user does not wish to be reminded, e.g. leaving home for a
movie at night, a reminder to bring laptop may be annoying. To avoid this alert, user
may use TimeZone. When set for a particular SafeZone tied to a particular TAG, there
will be no alert when user leaves a SafeZone during any time that falls within the set
TimeZone. However the reminder alert will still work in spite of TimeZone set if user
takes the belonging together outside the SafeZone and accidentally leave the
belonging behind.
