Tile ID is not always the mac address #4

On my tile devices the ID is slightly different from the mac address. On the first character changes:

MAC: D1:76... ID : 5176...

MAC: F9:B4... ID: b9b4...

I suspect Tile did this on purpose

Interesting to know, I'll see if I can find a better source to get the mac address e.g. from the rest API

I coded a tiny Flutter app to ring my Tile devices without using their app, I ended up hardcoding the mac adresses, and the authKey, completely removing the dependency on Tile's server (once you've retrieved the auth keys of course). If you're interested I can publish that.

And BTW, thank you so much for this!
