1. A Tile Mate so when you're about to leave for work and you've just been searching and searching for your keys, you can just tap into the app on your phone and ring the Tile to hear its little jingle. You can attach it to basically anything and track its last known location with both iOS and Android devices!
The Bluetooth connection works up to 250 feet and if you're further than that, no worries! You can check the app to see the last know location. Or, if you happen to lose your phone, you can double-tap the Tile to find it! If you want to keep track of your wallet and can't connect a keychain to it, check out the Tile Slim.
Promising review: "Buy it. Just buy it. Have you ever been late and unorganized and you have everything but your keys? This little sucker can be activated thru your phone and the keys sing a little song. You ever lose your phone but know where your keys are? You can use this to find your phone as well. I use it more to find my phone than my keys." —Manda Moore
Get it from Amazon for $19.73+ (available in two colors and two- and three- packs).
2. Or an Apple AirTag to keep in your bag in case you misplace it or leave it behind. It connects to your Find My app so you can precisely track it instead of going on a scavenger hunt. You know what they say, an Apple AirTag a day keeps the detectives away.
Promising review: "I really like how accurate the tracking is. I used to lose my keys a lot and I didn’t want to buy an AirTag because I thought they would be expensive and wouldn’t be accurate tracking, but I was completely wrong. the price is amazing and linking it to your my phone was super easy. Overall I really recommend if you lose your keys a lot or your wallet." —Beatriz
Get it from Amazon for $28.99 (or a pack of four for $89.99).
And to attach your AirTag to keychains or bags, get this silicone AirTag Case for $11.88 (pack of four).
3. A Drop Stop (as seen on Shark Tank) because there is nothing more annoying than dropping your phone or keys into the "abyss" that is the gap between your seat, never to be seen again. Insert this into the gap for a snug fit — a simple yet genius idea.
Promising Review: "For someone who constantly knocks things outta my hands, this product is a lifesaver. I love not having to lose bits of food, my phone, or anything else small and slim down the crevices in my seats. I even went out of my way to buy two more sets for my friends because they are exactly like me with all sorts of stuff. 😂 This product was a hit, I’d highly recommend it to everyone!" —Grace Danyluk
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $24.99.
4. A set of magnetic bookmarks that don't slip out, so the next time you decide to pick up Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets, you don't have to perform a location spell to find where you left off.
Promising review: "I love these things. They are small and adorable. The magnet is strong enough to hold through multiple pages and a paperback cover. With normal bookmarks I’ll either just leave them next to me and lose them for a little or put them in the back of my book for them to eventually slide out while I’m reading. I don’t have either of those issues with these. I always clip them to the back of my book and I’m good to go. I also really like that if I’m mid page, I can easily use the bookmark on the side of the page at my stopping point so I can easily start back up where I ended without having to try and figure it out." —Melissa Quantz
Get a set of five from Amazon for $6.99.
5. A lip balm holder because you KNOW you have to constantly replace your Burt's Bees because it somehow always gets lost. Plus, these are so cute and double as a decoration to your bag or keychain.

Promising review: "I love this Chapstick holder! It is so nice to not have to dig around my purse when I need it, and it looks great on my keychain! I really like the Mustard Yellow color! It is well-made and it looks like it will last a long time." —Christy R
Get it from Knot Mama Made on Etsy for $7.20 (available in 15 colors and three clip colors).
6. A hanging jewelry organizer so even though you would never wear grandma's heirloom, you can keep track of it and keep it safe. It comes with 32 pockets and 18 hooks, so you can keep the rest of your jewelry in here, too.
7. A SockDock because one sock ~mysteriously~ goes missing every. single. time you do laundry. Each of these has a built-in hanger and holds nine pairs of socks, so you'll never have to sort them again after taking them out of the dryer.
Promising review: "Very essential gadget. It keeps my socks together!! I hate losing a sock in whatever void in or between the washer and my dresser. I don’t have to roll up my socks together and pray they stay together (they never did). It comes with two so you can have a place for your dirty socks and pull your clean socks straight off the Sock Dock and onto your feet👍. Great for organization and for your sanity if you hate losing socks." —Magdaline Thompson
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $19.99 (available in five colors).
8. A PopSockets Wallet to stick on the back of your phone so you'll never have to worry about losing your wallet. It also comes with an extendable PopSocket so you don't *lose* your grip.
It comes with a magnetic, adhesive base so you can attach and detach the wallet. The base can be repositioned and you can swap out the PopSocket so you don't have to be committed to it. The best part, it holds up to FIVE cards!
Promising review: "Important things are never forgotten. I leave my wallet or purse behind a lot. I know I should have my license on me when I drive even if it’s a short distance, but taking such large things with me is just annoying. I always have my phone on me though, and so I had to get this. I comfortably fit my license and two cards in it. I never have to worry about going somewhere that doesn’t take Apple Pay, or needing my ID and not having it. As long as I have my phone, I know I have those. It’s easy to remove for wireless charging, and the pop socket makes me feel so much more secure when using my phone in bed or when taking photos!" —Julia
Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in eight colors).
9. An AirPod case that comes with a carabiner so you'll have it with you wherever you go and don't have to worry about misplacing it. How could you possibly go about your day without listening to Taylor's Era setlist?
Promising review: "I was constantly misplacing my AirPods until I got this. I like that it has the spot for the carabiner so I can clip my AirPods onto my keys – no more misplacing. I also like to clip them onto my water bottle or belt loop if I don't have my keys handy, which is convenient. I have been out in the rain many times with this case and while the outside of the case gets wet, the inside stays nice and dry." —Caroline Blythe
Get it from Amazon for $4.99+ (available in 19 colors).
10. A rustic entryway shelf to hang up your keys and bag instead of tossing them on the couch when you get home. Plus, it'll make your entry wall look ~fab~ with all the decor you can put up on the shelf.

11. A vent pouch so all your car necessities can live in here instead of under the passenger seat. Simply hook it onto the vent and it's ready to use. Put everything that currently lives in your cup holders into this neat little pouch. Also, there's a spot to thread a charging cord through so you can charge your phone as it sits in there.
Promising review: "My car console does not have a handy place for my phone, my reading glasses and sunglasses, my small bottle of hand sanitizer, and my lip balm. These are the things I seem to constantly need within reach when I am in my car. This pocket holds them all. It is roomy, sturdy and easy to attach to a vent, yet does not get in the way of my gear shift because it can slide back and forth on the vent if you want it to. I am really pleased with this purchase." —VWB
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $12.99.
12. A fake rock that's oh so tric*key* — no one will even realize that it's not real except for you. Keep this outside your front door and put the spare key in it just in case you ever forget your keys inside.
Promising review: "If you have a child that always forgets their house key, this is the solution for you! When my daughter often forgets to pack her keys or I have a guest arrive from out of town when I'm not home, I don't have to leave work and let them in the house. This fake rock looks real and has some weight to it. It sets nicely, hidden within my mulch. It is a great solution for my family." —bernadette pernotto
Get it from Amazon for $7.89+ (available in two styles and a two-pack).
13. Or a smart lock so you don't even have to THINK about your keys when you leave home — one less thing to lose. There are six access modes, from your phone to your fingerprint. Reviewers say it's easy to install, so taking the time to set this up outweighs the hours you'll spend outside waiting for someone to unlock the door.
The six different modes of access are code, fingerprint, keys, phone, fob, and card!
Promising review: "Best door lock EVER!!! I purchased this door lock as I’m sick of my kids losing keys or forgetting to lock the door behind them. Everyone in my house has their out fingerprint passcode and a number passcode, even my 6-year-old. I 100% recommend!!!!" —Kindle Customer
Get it from Amazon for $129.99.
14. A magnetic sunglasses holder to give your fragile eyewear a designated space instead of just tossing them in your car's center console or dash. Just clip it onto your sun visor and never panic over losing your sunglasses again.
Promising Review: "I bought this for my husband. His car did not have a pop down sunglass holder. This little gadget is simply the best. It hugs tightly to his visor and holds his expensive sunglasses safely. I would highly recommend this!" —Susan M. Parks
Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in four colors).

16. A pack of silicone earring backs to prevent your studs from falling out because those little suckers are just so hard to find. Whether you already lost the original backing or want to prevent them from coming off, just slide this onto the post of any earring.
Promising review: "I was so happy to get these. It seemed I would pick up a pair of earrings to put on and had to rob the silicone backs off another pair. Now I have a lot and can even share them with friends. I put them on the back of all my hanging earrings. When COVID hit, I lost so many earrings because they would get caught in my mask and I didn't realize when I took off my mask...there went the earring. Now I have plenty of backs so when I come home, my earrings do too. Such a great price and they come in a little storage box." —Nan62
Get a 200-pack from Amazon for $3.95+ (available in five sized packs).
17. A bag organizer so you won't have to play hide-and-seek with your much-needed hand sanitizer while you're out and about. This organizer comes in many sizes so you'll find one that perfectly fits into your bag, so all your necessities can be stored neatly in every nook and cranny.
Promising review: "Every time I travel miscellaneous items seem to gather at the bottom of my tote bag, but no longer with this device. It fit perfectly in the bottom of my tote and it also fits in some of my larger purses (that were like black holes!). Being organized makes life so much easier — grab one or two of these to organize your life too!" —Michele W. Gibson

This tote bag has six internal pockets and two on the outside. It has a magnetic closure and weatherproof fabric, keeping the inside safe and secure.
Promising review: "I love this bag. No more rifling through a black bag trying to find stuff. My poor husband has suffered through many years of digging trying to find stuff. The orange liner is awesome. I love that my coffee thermos and water bottle are easy to reach. While it is deep, it doesn’t feel that way. Everything is at the touch of my fingers. I highly recommend it!" —Chantal R.
Get it from Alpaka Gear for $49.
19. A hanging trunk organizer to free up space in your trunk and keep it neat — so when you accidentally hit the brakes too hard, nothing goes flying.
Promising review: "Great purchase! This has really made a lot more space in my trunk. It's so nice to not have things rolling around in the back of my Outback while I'm driving. It keeps everything organized and easy to find...much better than the crate I had previously had in my trunk that I ended up having to search through. Definitely would recommend it." —Mama D
Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in two colors and two sizes).
20. Or a backseat organizer for the kids in the car who ask for 20 things at once because they can never find anything. With your tots being able to access everything they need, enjoy some peace and quiet on your 10-hour road trip. And an added bonus: it protects the backseats from constant kicking.
Sold in a pack of two.
Promising review: "I bought this product for a roadtrip and do not regret it. My little ones filled their organizers with toys, snacks, and drinks and had easy access to everything they needed during the drive. I also loved that we could put their tablets in the pocket so that they could watch them looking straight ahead as opposed to having them in their laps. So far they’ve held up really well even with winter boots and the occasional car kicking. I would definitely recommend these to anyone considering." —Gretchen
Get it from Amazon for $27.99 (available in two colors).
21. A key holder that doubles as a wallet so you can keep all your important items in one nifty little thing instead of struggling to find your keys. When you're really in a rush, you just need to grab this and you'll have everything you need.
Pikore is a small business based in Ukraine that specializes in small leather bags and accessories.
Promising review: "High quality, well-stitched leather with a perfect design; holds my keys and a few cards if I want to run out without a bag. Very beautiful leather that almost glowed when I conditioned it. Vlad is very good at his work and his dedication shows. These are heirloom pieces." —Erin
Get it from Pikore from Etsy for $32+ (available in nine colors)
22. A rope basket to keep your place nice and organized — even if you decide to just toss anything and everything in there instead of leaving it sprawled across in the house.
Promising review: "I love this basket. We use it to store the living room throw blankets and pillows rather than having them pile up on the couch. It fits a lot, and the quality is good, not cheap looking/feeling. I can tell it's the type of product that will last a long time. I would definitely consider buying from this brand again. The very minor downside is that it comes with a big crease from the way it's packaged, but I'm sure it'll go away after some time — no biggie." —DHz
Get it from Amazon for $21.59+ (available in four colors and three sizes).
23. A mail organizer so you don't lose those very important documents (*ahem* reminder to pay your bills). It comes with two chalkboards so you can leave yourself friendly reminders of where things are and three double hooks so you can hang your keys.
Promising review: "Really happy with our choice. I'd been hunting for a useful item to stall mail in for some time, and this one is the right size for both incoming and outgoing mail without dominating our entry area. The keyrings are also sturdy and we use them each day. You can also hang masks from the keyrings as we do! Highly recommend." —Shira Schindel
Get it from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in four colors and two sizes).
24. A Hairpin Pal because even though packs of bobby pins come with so many, you find yourself buying new ones every year. This magnetic tray holds any metal hair clip so those pins that seemingly run away will stay put.
Promising review: "I bought this because I always lose bobby pins. This has also worked great because my bathroom counter is very dark and it's hard to see if there are bobby pins, so this holder not only keeps my bobby pins together, but it makes it easier to see them when I need them." —Olivia Bowman
25. An armrest organizer so the next time you're screaming "WHERE'S THE REMOTE", it'll be right next to you, silly. With such large pockets, you'll be able to store everything you need for a fantastic movie-watching experience.
Promising review: "I bought this for the sole purpose of keeping all our remotes in one place. (Let's face it; has a universal remote EVER worked?) So, we now have the remotes each in their own pocket and can grab the one we want right away. Nothing gets lost, the table doesn't get scratched from tossing the remote on the table, and due to the color you barely notice it's over the arm of the couch. This is well made of sturdy fabric, and long enough to tuck under the couch cushion." —Kathy
Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in four sizes and 28 colors).
