Miss read

For awhile now I thought I had a tile tracker on my car. I looked all over it nothing. Ao today I actually left in a different car and it was still readying a tile with me even when I was in the store. So it’s picking up my straight talk iPhone as a tile. I have nothing else that it could be reading. It does pick up my AirTags so ik it’s finding things but it’s definitely miss reading the tile for my phone.

Works so well I forget about it

Works so well I forget its working until it works; alerting me to nearby tags with accuracy.

1 billion stars. Helped when Find My couldn’t.

I was sure I was being tracked with an AirTag as I kept getting notifications from Find My and I almost drove myself to insanity trying to get Find My to Find It. I restarted my phone and made sure location services AND precise location was on for Find My but Find My would not let me play the sound nor get the directions to it. This app, for some reason, allows you to play the sound and rather than directions, a percentage bar to tell you how close to the AirTag you are. After I had finally found the AirTag, Find My started behaving 😂

Being stalked

Back in November 2025 my ex-boyfriend Christopher Turner was stalking me while we were still together. He tried choking me to death and I left him but still wondered how he knew where I was. By downloading this app I was able to find a Samsung tracker that was located in my trunk.

10 starts if I could. It does work.

I always suspected I was being followed or being tracked down. Never heard of this app before. After three days of messing the app and see it what it does my suspicions and were right all the time. It found the lulaven wireless tag hidden on the top edge of the hood by the windshield wipers. I now wondered what was that beep when I would hear it driving. I am an electrician, so many of tools or at least a few used AA batteries. I thought it were my tools beeping. No, I have been tracked down all this time and I knew. Thanks developers. And as for anyone get this app if you need it.
