![]() One small improvement on the app side would be allowing a Google-based login as many applications are these days. We were happy to see the App doesn’t require much to get registered (just a First and Last Name, Password, and Occupation). Download took just 30 seconds and we were presented with a sign-up screen. For the app, we searched the Google Play Store for “One Key” and the Milwaukee App was recommended instantly. Getting started with The Tick and the ONE-KEY App was very simple and straightforward. Here’s our experience with The Tick and Milwaukee’s One Key App: Getting Started: Five Minutes Got Us Up and Running (We used the Android version, available in the Google Play Store, on our Google Pixel phone). We currently don’t own any Milwaukee ONE-KEY tools, so The Tick was our first experience with the inventory tags themselves and with Milwaukee’s ONE-KEY App. In order to make the Milwaukee ONE-KEY App’s inventory and location tracking features available for tools without ONE-KEY technology built in, Milwaukee invented The Tick - a ruggedized Bluetooth-based inventory tag that works with the ONE-KEY App to enable tracking of any tool (or any thing, really) that you can glue, screw, or otherwise attach it to. (For example, the torque and rotation speed presets on Milwaukee M18 FUEL ONE-KEY impact drivers can be adjusted precisely in the app.) These tools come with built-in microprocessors that connect the tool to a smartphone via the Milwaukee ONE-KEY App which enables inventory control, location tracking, and for many tools, control over the tool’s settings. Milwaukee has really stepped up its game in the few years with a wide variety of smartphone/internet-connected ONE-KEY tools including everything from impact drivers to reciprocating saws.

The Home Depot is both providing the tools for free and compensating us however, the opinions we express here are our own. Stuff Lawyers Made Us Say: We’re partnering with The Home Depot to provide candid reviews of tools from a wide variety of manufacturers.
