Leave a Review Whistle
  • Flaky device horrible service

    The only reason I’m giving 3 stars is because when the device works (which it did well for 6 months and now only sporadically), it’s great. After about 6 months of use tracking and monitoring would drop out mid-way through a walk or simply not be available for days at a time. We contacted customer “service” repeatedly and they just kept blaming it on the cell network and cell variability. As we continued to contact them, they actually became condescending and snarky.

    I’ve read another review since and they had the same problems. Clearly we either had a defective device or Whistle has some system problems. In either case, customer service should have handled it much better.

    In the last 2 weeks the device or Whistle’s system seem to have started operating well again. We would have bought another device for our new puppy, but now we just don’t trust it to continue working and we don’t trust Whistle to provide appropriate service if there are problems.

    So disappointing because when it works, it’s great.

  • Inconsistent

    When it works its wonderful and a five star but when it doesnt it gives a false sense of security and rates a negative star to I’ll say two stars overall. Ive had several generations and have been using it for years. There will be stretches where it has been flawless with timely location updates and consistent results. Then there are the other times. One of those I appear to be in now. The app will alert me when my pet gets out of the Wi-Fi zone then will never be able to update his location again. I can load him in the truck with me now. Start tracking as soon as we drive down the street to the park, once there walk him on leash for the first twenty minutes and Whistle is constantly telling me it is having trouble locating him even though he is two feet from me. Same park/trial I have been going to for over twenty years and an area where Whistle has preformed flawlessly in the past. Now it spins looking for his location for over and hour but will tell me when we pull back into the driveway.

    It was working perfectly last fall thru the beginning of this year then suddenly something changed and it is pretty much worthless now. Nothing has changed on my end with Wi-Fi or devices. I have contacted tech support multiple times in the past and they are very friendly but the advice is kind of all over the place.

    When functioning its the best game in town I think but right now it’s incredibly frustrating and inconsistent.

  • Time frames are accurate. Distances are not.

    After 2 months of using whistle and cross checking it with my Apple Watch, I have determined that the only stat that is accurate on the device is the duration of activities. The distance is wildly inaccurate unless you walk your dog with the app open and let it sync as you walk.

    If you let your friend or girlfriend take your dog for a walk, walk your dog without your phone on, or if your dog is at a doggy daycare or boarder, the recording will not be accurate at all. Essentially any walk or play time an hour or longer will always show to be a mile.

    I am currently waiting on customer service to provide useful options to remedy the issue. I don’t know if mine is defective or if people just don’t test it.
