Pebblebee Halo: A Dual-Purpose Safety Alert and Smart Item Finder

Pebblebee is expanding beyond the typical Bluetooth tracker with a new device designed to do more than just help you find lost keys. Called the Pebblebee Halo, it launches as the first in a new category for the company: a personal safety device that also works as an item finder, combining security features with everyday practicality.

Unlike most Bluetooth trackers that come in small “pebble” shapes or slim card-style designs, the Pebblebee Halo looks more like a compact action camera. That design choice fits its primary purpose. Pebblebee positions Halo as a personal safety device first, built to help deter threats or quickly signal for help, and only second as a tracker for your belongings.

The standout feature is its built-in 130dB siren paired with strobe lights. Activating the alert is straightforward: you pull apart the lower portion of the device to trigger the siren and strobes. Once activated, the companion app can send your live location to up to five trusted contacts via SMS, making it easier for friends or family to track where you are in real time when seconds matter.

For situations where drawing attention could make things worse, the Pebblebee Halo also includes a silent alert mode. This lets you notify trusted contacts and share your location without blasting the siren or flashing the strobes—an important option for users who want discreet help rather than a loud deterrent.

Halo isn’t just for emergencies, either. Pebblebee says it can serve as an everyday carry flashlight, adding a practical reason to keep it with you daily rather than leaving it in a bag until you need it.

On the tracking side, Pebblebee Halo is designed to work across the two major ecosystems: Google Find Hub and Apple Find My. That cross-platform support is a major plus for shoppers who want a tracker that fits into their existing phone setup without compromises. The device is rechargeable, and Pebblebee claims the battery can last up to 12 months on a single charge, helping it compete with long-lasting trackers that are meant to be carried all year.

For carrying options, the Halo can be attached to a keychain, worn, or tucked into a purse or bag. It also comes with an IP66 rating for dust and water resistance, which should help it survive everyday use, bad weather, and accidental spills.

Pricing is set at $59.99, and the Pebblebee Halo is available now from the company directly. Pebblebee is also offering bundle incentives: buy two units to get 15% off plus a free gift, or buy three to receive one unit free.

Each Pebblebee Halo includes a keyring carabiner and a 12-month subscription to Pebblebee’s Alert Live service for live location sharing, a package valued at $24.99. And if the Halo itself gets lost, there’s a scannable code on the back intended to make returns easier if someone finds it.

For anyone who wants a device that blends personal safety features with reliable item tracking—and supports both iPhone and Android-friendly networks—the Pebblebee Halo aims to be a compelling all-in-one option.
