Introduction
The InCard Finder is compatible with both the Google Find My Device (FMD) network and the Apple Find My network. Users can choose their preferred network during the initial pairing process. Once paired with an Android device, the InCard Finder operates as a Google FMD locator tag until it is reset to factory settings. Similarly, when paired with an iOS device, it functions as an Apple Find My locator tag until a factory reset is performed.
Before You Start
- Before you begin, ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your Android or iOS device, and that the device has internet access via Wi-Fi or cellular service.

Locate Your Finder

Remove and Re-pair the Finder
Users can remove the Finder from the Find My Device app on the Android device or the Find My app on the iOS devices. If the Finder is within Bluetooth range of the Android/iOS device, it will automatically perform a factory reset upon receiving the command from the device.
If the Finder is out of Bluetooth range, the user should perform a factory reset on the Finder either before or after removing it from the app (see the instructions for the factory reset). To re-pair with an Android or iOS device, follow the instructions in “Get started with an Android device” or “Get Started with an iOS Device”.
