### 4/5 — Moving home and Cat

*2026-08-02, version 3.7.7*

Pawfit has helped with this traumatic event, instructions via email very good👌👏

### 2/5 — Recent update worse stats

*2026-02-21, version 3.6.9*

After a recent update, I can no longer see average activity on a weekly, monthly, or yearly basis, which was really useful to see overall activity levels over time.

### 3/5 — Caused me stress - inaccurate

*2025-10-06, version 3.6.0*

The tracker showed my cat walking all over and crossing roads , at a time when I can see her asleep in the garden on cctv . It has shown her in multiple locations she’s not been to. 

Sadly only accurate 60% of the time

### 3/5 — Ok

*2025-09-13, version 3.6.0*

It’s bettter than not having one and has improved some anxious moments with a spaniel who will vanish if there is a whiff of pheasant. However overall i feel like i’m waiting for a better version, the unit is quite big on a smaller dog and the frequency of location updates isn’t what it could be. Charge time is seriously slow.

### 5/5 — Andy

*2025-09-08*

This has made my life so much easier. I have acreage and can now find him and know where’s he’s been. Great tech support as well!

### 5/5 — The best tracker on the market so far

*2025-09-08*

I think that’s a smallest solution on the market right now. I was worried that it would look heavy and uncomfortable on my cat’s neck. But it is so tiny and powerful. Love it. The app works great, no issues so far. It’s been 3 months of use

### 5/5 — Works for me

*2025-09-08, version 3.6.0*

The product does what is says on the tin! 

It tracks pets, that’s what I needed

### 4/5 — Great for peace of mind

*2025-09-08, version 3.6.0*

Having a beagle this is a must have!! Definitely helpful when you have that panic moment 😁

### 5/5 — Brilliant!!

*2025-09-08, version 3.6.0*

Wonderful piece of kit. Workssa dream - step count, location, collar device etc. Pawfit v3 is even better than earlier versions with more solid  charger. Great value. Highly recommend!

### 3/5 — Für Campingplatz nicht geeignet

*2025-08-08, version 3.5.9*

Die Schutzzone ist für eine Campingplatz Parzelle viel zu groß. Die App einzurichten hat gedauert und trotz Premium Abo noch Werbung.

### 4/5 — Perfect except for one thing

*2025-07-04, version 3.5.8*

It would be awesome if we could get notified when the tracker has been turned on and when it has been turned off. That would be an amazing addition to the app you can even make it optional for the people who don’t want that

### 5/5 — Happy with it

*2025-06-29, version 3.5.8*

Good app, good device. Appreciate that they notify when there may be impacting services. 

Would like the option to set a lower ‘upper’ temperature alert as 40 degrees C is extremely hot and dangerous for our breed (Bernese Mountain dog) so makes the option pointless - whereas if I could set it to say 25 or 30 it would be extremely beneficial.

### 5/5 — Brilliant in more ways than one

*2025-04-27, version 3.5.5*

We’ve had our Pawfit for a few years.  As well as being great at knowing where our dog is, it also saved her from more serious injury when she ended up in the jaws of another dog, who got the tracker and not her neck.  So grateful.

### 5/5 — Worth every penny!

*2025-04-24, version 3.5.4*

Had the Pawfit for a few years now and it helped find our ‘spirited’ Beagle all the way to a level crossing on the Waterloo Mainline after chasing a deer for a few miles …doesn’t bear thinking about if we hadn’t been able to pinpoint exactly where he was. We have had a couple of issues with the Tracker not charging, but Customer Services is faultless and replacements have been sent within days. I’ve recommended this to everyone I know 🐶

### 5/5 — Fabulous.

*2025-04-19, version 3.5.4*

Brilliant easy to use app and the tracker is just amazing.

### 4/5 — Great, but glitchy since last update

*2025-03-27, version 3.5.3*

Love the app and the tracker. Works really well for my dog who runs away every chance he gets. The last update has stopped any notifications coming up though which is a pain, I now don’t get notifications if he leaves our safety area or if the battery is low.

### 5/5 — Cocker Spaniel

*2025-03-19, version 3.5.3*

Very active cocker spaniel and I can’t rate the Pawfit highly enough. I’m often in the lakes with him and the tracker gives me full peace of mind. It’s always accurate and tracks every movement. It’s great to check how many miles he’s done after a walk/hike too.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — will not connect

*2026-07-14*

this will not connect! i have tried for ever!

### 1/5 — Only works with one phone

*2026-04-19*

We bought one for our cat.  Once my wife registered it, worked fine for her.  I tried to register on my phone, received a message saying it’s already been used.  What happens when she’s at work or out of town and I’m left alone?  Very inconvenient ☹️

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2025-09-20, version 3.6.0*

Charging every three days, gps mapping extremely unreliable.
Going back to an AirTag.

### 1/5 — Not correct

*2025-02-18, version 3.5.1*

Keep getting a message:
This app is no longer working on my Apple Watch !!! 
They are going backwards with the app not getting better at all!!!
I will start looking for an alternative if it’s not fixed 
Your watch app(3.4.8.1) is not up to date. Please delete the app from your watch and reinstall it to ensure you have the latest version.

But still can’t get the app on my watch face since the upgrade before last !!

So annoying

### 1/5 — Worthless even with upgrade

*2024-09-28*

This company should be ashamed of this very glitchy system. We spent extra money to get Pawfit 3. I am so frustrated as this only can track my dog 20% of the time at best. The gps locator is absolutely useless. Don’t buy this product.

### 1/5 — Not reliable

*2024-01-28*

This tracker does not work as it claims to. Really inconsistent, unreliable, and clunky. I got it for my dog, who tends to run away. The app doesn’t work when I need it to, and it claims my dog is in places that he is not. Now I seem to be locked into an expensive cellular plan and a useless tracker. I do NOT recommend

### 1/5 — Seriously?!

*2023-11-24, version 3.3.2*

If you want to be woken up at 1.55am  and again after 2am by Pawfit pushing adverts to your phone that you have not agreed to, this is the device for you. 
Whomever thought this would appeal to long term existing customers is a weapons grade idiot.
Time to switch to another tracker for my dog.

### 1/5 — Not accurate

*2023-03-10, version 3.1.2*

We lost the collar but found the dog that was attached to it, but the fun part was then trying to find the collar, put it this way we didnt find it it using the tracker, someone found it and put it on facebook, total waste of money

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2021-11-28, version 2.9.3*

Since the upgrade on the 23/11/21 the app is not connecting to the tracker at all. I wish reliability would be checked before updates are rolled out.

### 1/5 — App - Leider komplett unbrauchbar

*2020-11-01, version 2.7.6*

Ich habe die App installiert und ein Haustier hinzugefügt. Während des Vorgangs wurde ich gefragt welches Abo ich wählen möchte, was ich zu der Zeit noch nicht wusste. Mittlerweile habe ich mich dazu informiert, aber leider gibt es in der App keine Möglichkeit nachträglich ein Abo abzuschließen - wie soll ich denn dann das Produkt nutzen? 
Tipp: ein Produktmanager sollte sich mal alle „User flows“ im System anschauen und dann muss nachgebessert werden.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2026-08-03, version 3.7.7*

Very good tracking app

### 5/5 — Essential Item!

*2026-05-04, version 3.7.3*

I have spent enough time worrying about where my working cocker is. This tracker saved her life when she was caught in a snare as I located her and set her free. Without her tracker on I would never have found her. We don't go out without it and a phone with plenty of battery....

### 5/5 — Very happy with product

*2026-04-27, version 3.7.3*

Worked fabulous. Tracked my BC when he went adventuring . Followed the app , lead me straight to him . Trained my BC to respond and return to me when the alarm is activated . Find I need to charge weekly

### 5/5 — Brilliant trackers

*2026-04-26, version 3.7.3*

These trackers are great, very accurate & feel better knowing where the cats are 🙌 battery lasts about 3 days as cats are in and out a lot. Would recommend 👍

### 5/5 — Confidence

*2026-04-25, version 3.7.3*

Accuracy means can see exactly where pet is especially in areas not familiar, such as on holiday. Good value used daily.

### 5/5 — Just Brilliant

*2026-01-30, version 3.6.8*

After weeks of reviewing GPS trackers for my 2 cats, I’m so pleased I decided to buy this one. Customer service is brilliant and GPS is accurate as well as subscription is reasonable every month not like some. I have peace of mind now when my cats go out with bonus of a light on the collar and sound.

### 5/5 — Works Well

*2025-10-22*

Quite happy with the system and the app. Good functionality, size and performance vs. other options on the market.

### 5/5 — Just works!!

*2025-10-22, version 3.6.3*

I have tried a number of trackers and this one is by far the best (in my opinion)

The others spend their time telling me they don’t know where my dog is or telling me it is somewhere in this circle. This just pinpoints all the time. Been using it for over three years now and v3 is just fab, can’t fault it.

### 5/5 — Definitely number 1

*2025-09-10, version 3.6.0*

The best ever tracking for my dog I’m so happy always  know where her is and I can have in control his exercise definitely I can give 10/10

### 5/5 — Best tracker for cats

*2025-09-09, version 3.6.0*

We got to this tracker after a series of mis-steps. It is the best on the market. Light. Fits to any collar. Affordable. Reliable. Accurate. Great app. Has saved us hours trying to find our cats (or their lost collars). Could not be happier with this purchase. If you are hesitating read on!
Per tracer - doesn’t work if you can’t get a radio signal (returned for a partial refund - an expensive mistake).
Kippy-good app. Affordable. Dreadful overly large collar which couldn’t be adjusted to fit any of our cats. Returned. 
AirTags. Useless. Don’t bother.
