It lets you query your Tile devices from code\u2014fetching current location, device status (active/lost/dead), firmware versions, and other metadata. The library wraps aiohttp for async HTTP calls and handles authentication against Tile's cloud service.\n\nThe package is built on an undocumented, reverse-engineered API, so it carries inherent risk: Tile could change or block it at any time. It supports Python 3.10\u20133.13 and exposes a simple async interface: log in with credentials, fetch your tiles, and call methods like `async_get_tiles()`, `async_update()`, or `async_history()` (Premium only) to retrieve data. No compiled dependencies or system libraries required.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you own Tile devices and need programmatic access to their data. Install friction is low, maintenance is active, and the MIT license is permissive. However, be aware that this library depends on an unofficial API that Tile does not publish or guarantee\u2014it may break without notice. Test thoroughly before relying on it in production."},"id":"pytile","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pytile","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pytile.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pytile/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-12-27","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pytile","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A simple Python API for Tile\u00ae Bluetooth trackers"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":73559,"position":14976,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2024.12.0"}
