Bluetooth Dog Tracker Tag, Pet Tracker for Dogs with Silicone Collar Holder, Works with Apple Find My & Android Find Hub, IP67 Waterproof Anti-Lost Locator, Black 2 Pack

Great for finding lost items. Works well on Android at least.
These little trackers are pretty cool. I’m an Android person mostly so this review will be based on the trackers use on that platform.This product arrives in a small box with the tracker encased in a rubber holder with a key ring attachment, a small screwdriver for removing the screws to replace the battery and two manuals, one for Android and one for iOS.For android at least the instructions were already out of date and not especially complete, but that’s likely because this is a rapidly evolving space with Google only recently opening their network up for this sort of use. Setting the device up is actually rather simple, download the Find Hub app from Google on Google Play Store, use your phone to pair the tracker as a bluetooth device (not in the app oddly but this might change) and then it should show up in the app as a device you can track.The app includes a few options for tracking. It’ll show you a map with it’s last known location which can be determined from your phone or any other android phone on the network. Whenever someone passes the tracker with an android phone the tracker sends off a blip and google records that as a location marker with the date and time it was seen. That’s my understanding at least, maybe there’s more technical magic to it than that.Once you are close enough to maybe hear the thing you can make it beep until you find it. Whoever was in charge of setting the volume for this little thing though clearly intended it for use around the home. I can’t imagine trying to hear this beep under a freeway overpass as I tried to recover my lost or missing stuff. It’ll get you close enough to see your bike but not close enough to hear it in a bag. Attached to a remote or hanging off a dog collar you are probably set.There’s also a cool sci-fi real-time tracker deal that shows you the signal strength as you move the phone around in front of you. This actually works pretty great and will get you within a few feet of the device once you are in the right area.Not sure how long the battery is going to last. It’s a pretty standard 2032 watch style battery for which I always have a handful of replacements available. Hopefully the Find Hub sends me a notification when the battery needs replacing, not sure how to test that so we’ll just wait and see.Tested around the house and the thing works like a champ. In negotiations with the wife as to if this goes on the dog collar or the ebike (under the seat, removed from the case, covered in black tape) but I think we just pickup a few more and put em on everything we would like to avoid loosing.Star deducted for the painfully low volume on the beep. I’ve had smaller devices make more noise so I think it would be possible to amp this up a bit.

Great locator
This is a neat little location device. I am SO glad that there are trackers that work with Android devices, and I especially appreciate the fact that this device can be used with either IOS or Android. It’s convenient for all of us, and, it just makes sense.This little device works with my Android phone through a network and app called Google’s Find Hub. (Don’t bother with the app in the instructions – it’s non-existent). It’s a good app to have and uses a network of other devices on the hub to facilitate location with trackers such as this.Within just a few short minutes of turning on the tracker and opening the app, I was able to connect the device to the app. And, just like that I have a working tracking device. :)This came with a key chain, which is how I intend to use this tracker. I typically keep my keys inside my purse and almost never take them out, so for me, this is killing 2 birds with one stone – I will be able to track my purse and keys should they ever become lost.I’m not sure what the battery life is for this yet. I guess I will find out soon, which is the only drawback I can think of for this device. How much will it cost to keep feeding it batteries? If I were only using this to track luggage, I would only have it turned on from the time I checked my luggage until the time I got where I was going and was able to unpack it and turn it off again. Too bad they don’t make rechargeable 2032 batteries…WAIT! They actually do exist! (Giddily tosses batteries & charger in my Amazon shopping cart!) And, a great thing is, the app lets me know what condition the battery is in.Recommended!
