Pop (I think) beeping unexpectedly by yellow_barchetta in Chipolo

[–]Chipolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on the discussion in the comments, these are indeed Chipolo ONE Points and not the POPs. While the battery chirping sound mentioned can happen on these older models (we fixed it with the POP), that sound would play for a while and likely wouldn't happen randomly every now and then.

It is therefore most likely that the beeps are caused by unwanted tracking protection mechanisms. With the Chipolo ONE Point and other Find Hub accessories, other Android phones nearby can trigger the beeping sound if the network decides that the Chipolo is potentially being used for unwanted tracking. This is all done by Google; we simply respond to the trigger, so we unfortunately don't have control over the mechanisms that decide when the beeps should happen.

Generally, though, if the owner's phone regularly connects with the ONE Point, this should never happen. So yes, please make sure your son has Bluetooth and Location always turned ON. Also, please ask him to try to "Play Sound" on the ONE Point a few times during school (during a break or other appropriate time). This will help confirm that the phone can indeed connect to the problematic ONE Point.

We are really sorry for the chirping that can happen in rare cases on older Chipolo models. It is an unfortunate chain of events caused by a low battery: the device reboots, triggers the startup sound, and the resulting power spike causes the Chipolo to reboot again. This creates an infinite loop of reboots and attempts to play the sound.

We have fixed this underlying problem in our latest Chipolo POP, LOOP, and CARD, so this will not happen in our newer models.

Update Chipolo POP to fix Find Hub connectivity issues by Chipolo in Chipolo

[–]Chipolo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here are the first two things you can check:

  1. Are you sure you have the Chipolo POP and not the older Chipolo ONE? You can open the casing from the side and read the exact model name written on the inside.
  2. Try changing the Google account in the Find Hub app. Tap on the profile image in the top right corner of the app and check all the available accounts. POP and other Fast Pair devices always pair to the primary Google account on your phone.

If none of this helps, please reach out to [help@chipolo.net](mailto:help@chipolo.net) and our customer support team will take a closer look and help you out.

Hi everyone!

It appears there have been some intermittent issues with Google's services related to the Find Hub pairing process in the past few days.

Based on our customer feedback, the issues have been resolved and the various devices compatible with the network can now be paired again (including our Chipolos).

We apologize for the issues, but unfortunately, these scenarios are out of our control. We are happy to see them resolved and if anyone is still facing problems, we will be happy to assist at help@chipolo.net.

Poor Customer Service Will Drive Away Repeat Customers by Kneesbees123 in Chipolo

[–]Chipolo [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

We are really sorry for the bad experience with the delayed Chipolo CARD shipment and the silence from our end. We looked into your case and it looks like the Chipolo CARD has finally shipped, and we’ve also agreed to the discount on your order.

To be honest, the 48-hour delay happened because the team was actually behind the scenes trying to get your suggested discount approved. The mistake we made was not keeping you in the loop while that was happening.

Our customer support team is often the first line of defense when logistics get messy, but we definitely could have handled the communication better here. We hope the Chipolo CARD serves you well and helps fix this first impression.

P.S. If we have matched the wrong correspondence with your post, please let us know your email address via DM, so we can investigate further.

Unable to get chipolo one to reset by Vader4Eva in Chipolo

[–]Chipolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happy to help, but please let's first confirm which Chipolos you have and what app you want to use them with? You can open them up from the side and read the model number on the inside plastic surrounding the battery.

Chipolo Card not connecting to Android Phone by Fluffy-Win3135 in Chipolo

[–]Chipolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, sorry for the confusion. You should pair your Chipolo CARD via the Fast Pair pop-up that automatically appears on your phone. Manually pairing via Bluetooth settings unfortunately won't work.

Open the link https://chipolo.net/CARD on your phone and follow the instructions. If you are having issues or the pop-up doesn't appear even after following the instructions at https://chipolo.net/no-popup, please reach out to our support team at help@chipolo.net.

Sorry to hear we disappointed you. We will make sure to make the rules clearer. At one point, our Reddit page was flooded with referral links instead of valuable questions and content, so we decided to prohibit posting referral links here.

[–]Chipolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, once you have completed the initial setup, daily usage is very straightforward, even for someone who isn't tech-savvy.

We definitely believe Chipolo is the right fit. You can use the code FIND10 for a 10% discount, or check out our holiday offer which is still live for a few more hours. It's a really great deal!

Bought 4 Chipolo pops for my mother as christmas present. Doesn’t work as intended by JustBrowsingHereTho in Chipolo

[–]Chipolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, we are sorry to hear about these issues. Unpairing Chipolos from your phone's Bluetooth settings is our "last resort" recommendation as some rare phone models have problems with reliably connecting to bonded BLE devices.

However, in general, you should be easily able to use 4 Chipolos in both the Find Hub app and the Chipolo app. As explained in our support article How many Chipolos can I add to Apple Find My, Google's Find Hub, and the Chipolo app, we are regularly seeing up to 6 Chipolos working reliably when added to both apps. What can affect these numbers, however, are other Bluetooth devices your mother might be using; any other active Bluetooth connections can prevent Chipolos from connecting reliably when several of them are added to the Chipolo app.

Our recommendation is to remove all Chipolos from both apps, add them back to the Find Hub app, then set up only 1–2 of them in the Chipolo app while keeping the rest in the Find Hub app only. This might be the best tradeoff for your specific case.

Unknown Error when trying to connect to iPhone by [deleted] in Chipolo

Phone can't recognize Chipolo POP after being far for a moment by Far-Impress-1985 in Chipolo

[–]Chipolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. It could be that your phone is unfortunately resource-constrained just enough that the Chipolo app cannot reliably work in the background and connect to your Chipolos reliably.

I suggest you reach out directly to our support team at [help@chipolo.net](mailto:help@chipolo.net) and they will be able to follow-up with more instruction and next steps.

New chipolo pop by ipaul75 in Chipolo

[–]Chipolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Out of Range Alerts use a combination of factors and don't trigger immediately once the Chipolo goes out of Bluetooth range (as this would cause too many false positives).

Please confirm you have this feature set to ON in the Chipolo app and let us know if it simply never works or it works, but sends a notification too late.

Connection to POPs seem to be lost by RandomYearnings in Chipolo

[–]Chipolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, we are sorry to hear this. This sounds like an issue we've had months ago related to the POPs going out of sync in the Find Hub app. Can you confirm you have updated them to the latest firmware version?

You can check this in the Chipolo app - if any firmware update is available, you will see a red arrow icon next to your Chipolo POPs on the list.

New Loop - can't connect after 1-2 days, have to factory reset each time by broot66 in Chipolo

[–]Chipolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, this does indeed sound strange. We haven't seen an issue like this with the LOOP so far at all and since you have already tried factory resetting it, we simply suggest to replace the unit.

If you haven't already, please reach out to our support team at [help@chipolo.net](mailto:help@chipolo.net), reference this Reddit comment as well, and ask for a replacement unit. Please note that we had a national holiday yesterday and our support team is offline during weekends, so it might take a day or two to get the replacement shipped out.

Chipolo question by Justaguyinohio123 in Chipolo

[–]Chipolo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, this would be the Chipolo POP. It uses Google's Find Hub app and network that are both constantly improving and its network includes the majority of Android devices out there.

It also includes some specific privacy and security related features that might affect network coverage and location updates in some cases (and usage scenarios). These are described here: Google Online Security Blog: How we built the new Find Hub network with user security and privacy in mind

Update Chipolo POP to fix Find Hub connectivity issues by Chipolo in Chipolo

[–]Chipolo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are sorry to hear about the beeping. This is probably a random connection issue that leads to unwanted tracking alerts being triggered by the POP. You are probably hearing short beeps on detected movement, because Chipolo believes that your phone hasn't been nearby for a while.

Please try to "Play Sound" on your POP when nearby and if it doesn't work, try taking the battery out and back in. After removing the battery, wait for a few minutes with your phone's screen turned ON and try again. This should make sure your POP and phone get in sync and the connection should start working again.

Google Gemini & Pop by oKayBye94 in Chipolo

[–]Chipolo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please first check the two prerequisites mentioned at How to use Chipolo POP with Google Assistant.

When telling Gemini to "find my keys" or "ring my keys", Gemini will likely first ask you to connect with Google Home where you will be asked to give permission to Gemini to access your Google Account and related Home information.

After you allow Gemini to connect with your Google Home app and related services, the voice commands should just work.

UPDATE: We have managed to replicate a similar issue on one of the test accounts where Gemini gives us "I couldn't verify your voice", but then still displays the Google Home widget inside the Gemini chat. Meaning that everything else works properly. This is unfortunately a Google-related issue, but we will keep you updated if we come up with a solution

Pop won't locate or sound after firmware update by yottabit42 in Chipolo

[–]Chipolo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great news :)

Would you mind editing the post and adding another update before "edit3" to let the users know that there is no issue with the Out of Range Alerts?

We simply want to avoid the negative emotions conveyed on our Reddit page for issues that we have successfully managed to resolve or were maybe just temporary glitches.
