A must-have quick fix

I could find my Bluetooth earbuds in 5 minutes as opposed to frantically searching for days and nights. This was so quick and easy to use, contrary to other tracking apps which require a paid subscription just to open😑. Great app overall!!!

Warmth and cold

It does take awhile to find the device but overall this is a great app to use and if the warmth and cold didn’t drop so dramatically this app would easily earn a 5 star rating but this is a great app to have
