How we compare
A real GPS tracker built to go anywhere
Bluetooth tags are fine for keys on the couch, and phone-based apps stop working the moment a phone dies or stays home. When you need to find a kid, a parent, or a bag anywhere in the US, you need a dedicated GPS tracker on a cellular network.

"Slipped it into my daughter's backpack before her first week walking to school alone. The geofence alert hits my phone the moment she leaves the school zone. Worth every cent."

Tanya M. — Denver, COVerified buyer · Kids & personal safety
"Mom is 81 and still insists on her morning walks. The tracker is light enough that she forgets it's on her belt, and I get a wandering alert if she leaves the neighborhood."

Robert K. — Tampa, FLVerified buyer · Elderly care
"My checked bag got routed to the wrong airport and I could see exactly where it was before the airline could. It paid for itself on one trip."

Alicia L. — Chicago, ILVerified buyer · Travel & luggage
"Clipped it to our husky's harness — he's an escape artist. At 3.4 ounces he doesn't even notice it, and the battery genuinely lasts weeks between charges."
