Trackers for Android’s Find Hub network are quickly becoming easy to find in a variety of form factors, and at a ton of different price points. But they’re all quite similar in that they’re just an AirTag, but for Android. With its AirNotch Pro and AirCard Pro, though, Rolling Square has crafted what have quickly become my favorite Find Hub trackers.
Rolling Square is a brand you’ve probably never heard of, but the company makes a ton of useful gadgets including neat travel adapters, clever MagSafe mounts, and more. But it’s the brand’s trackers that caught my eye.
The AirNotch Pro and AirCard Pro are Rolling Square’s AirTag-like trackers that come in an iOS-compatible version, but also a version that works with Android’s Find Hub. And you’ll get the same features here as you would a tracker from Pebblebee or Chipolo. General location tracking, the ability to get closer with Bluetooth range, and the option to trigger a sound to find a nearby tracker, as well as sharing options.
What makes these trackers stand out for me boils down to two things – performance and the hardware.
In terms of performance, Rolling Square has done a great job making these trackers responsive and easy to use. Pairing was a bit of a headache, as is often the case with Find Hub trackers. After pairing, though, the connection is typically very fast. I’ve noticed that AirNotch Pro – the keyring-style tracker – connects a bit faster than AirCard Pro, but the point is that they’re both reliable.
That’s good, because one of the best aspects of these trackers is the sheer volume that comes from playing a sound to find either one. AirCard Pro sounds louder than the card-style trackers I’ve tested from Pebblebee and Chipolo, loudly coming through even when stuffed into my wallet. AirNotch Pro and its “omnidirectional 360° sound” speakers puts out some surprisingly loud ringing. It’s far from subtle and would grab the attention of anyone nearby, ensuring you’ll find your keys, bag, or whatever the tracker is attached to.
The hardware is also just clever and well put together. AirNotch Pro has a sturdy aluminum build that’s fairly unapologetic about its size. It’s large by tracker standards, but only just barely. It makes up for that by offering longer battery life through the use of two CR2032 batteries, as well as by having glow-in-the-dark strips across the face and a strong built-in keyring hook. This all just makes sense for a tracker, unlike the bare-bones designs of something like, well, Apple’s AirTag.
Meanwhile, AirCard Pro offers a strong aluminum frame that’s roughly as thick as two credit cards, but somehow manages to squeeze in 12 months of battery life. It also recharges on any Qi charger, a huge convenience compared to other card-style trackers that either have proprietary chargers or just need to be replaced when the battery dies. I also really appreciate the “digital ID” feature, a QR code that can be scanned to show your contact information. It’s fully customizable and easy to set up, and very versatile at that. It works as a standard ID with your contact details, but can also redirect to an external URL too.
Truly, this is the best card-style tracker I’ve tried to date.
From the moment I unboxed them to the times I used them to track down my wallet and key, AirNotch Pro and AirCard Pro quickly cemented themselves as my favorite trackers for Android’s Find Hub. The only thing missing is UWB, which is still only found in the Moto Tag. The $10 price increase over that tracker makes Rolling Squares’ options a little bit of a harder sell, but I truly think they’re worth it at just shy of $40 each.
