# iBeacon Tracker

> iBeacon Tracker is a built-in integration for Home Assistant. It has 96.7k installs sharing analytics and works locally.

iBeacon Tracker is a built-in Home Assistant integration for tracking iBeacon devices locally. It adds presence tracking and sensors for estimated distance, power and vendor. Home Assistant can find it on the network by itself and offer to add it. Setup happens in the UI, and nothing extra needs to be installed. The options let the user manage a list of allowed UUIDs, removing existing ones or entering a new one.
