* Implies tiles with non-replaceable batteries will stop working after a fixed time (they won't).

11 months after activation, the Tile app constantly blasts you with warnings that you need to "Re-tile" and buy a replacement: via email, app notifications, repeated non-dismissable (only "snoozable") in-app alerts, and a lot of doom and gloom UI that presents a false sense of urgency.
The truth is, the battery can last 2 or even 3 years sometimes, and you don't need to be notified by the app when it's dead - you'll know it's dead when it shows up as "not reporting status" despite you knowing where the tile is. So you should be able to tell the Tile app "Yeah, I know it is near end of life, stop bothering me about it" one time, rather than the app acting insane and showing constant notifications/red warning labels/etc.
