I think this is a really neat idea. I am always interested by the being able to find my stuff items.

Although I wonder if having a lot of bluetooth devices will overwhelm devices. For example, when you're in a plane or in a hotel is not the time to pair your bluetooth - there are so many devices in the list that sometimes it's impossible to find it or search on that list. These lists are usually deep in the OS so they are kind of tricky to work with. Have you figured out some way to handle this? Does it not apply due to some kind of device type filtering? I'm also curious as to how many bluetooth devices one phone can connect to! Maybe I've just had a lot of bluetooth problems.

Hey David here from Got-it, we're not forming BLE connections which require handshakes every 20ms and thus the difficulty in paring in crowded BLE environments. We just need to pick up the occasional radio event for our solution to work. As you've correctly identified phones are also limited to the number of connections they can form. We have successfully tested with 1500 labels all in the same cardboard box and that worked well.
