App does it all

This app gives me flexibility to track all of my vehicles on one screen. It allows me to set speed limits, excessive idle time and I know start and end times. Very helpful.

Pocketfinder is Accurate and easy to use

I've been using this platform for a few years. It works amazingly well it's simple it's accurate and it has never failed. The mounted in all my vehicles and in my dogs collar.

Own Both Devices

I love my vehicle tracker. Have one on my sons 4Runner, one on my wife’s car and one on her mothers car. Her mother takes long trips alone and all her family can watch her progress. We also set a zone around our city so when she drives too far away when she shouldn’t be, my wife gets an alert.
Personal tracker works. It’s not like the movies but it works and my wife likes knowing where her mom is on her walks. Battery life for her is 3-4 days with her going out usually 2x a day.

Don’t waste your money!

Tracker battery fails after a few hours despite being set according to recommended intervals. Zone notifications are either completely nonexistent or we get 3 or 4 repeated messages of the same location. We cannot rely on this device for our special needs daughters safety. We have stopped using it altogether after multiple attempts to customer service.
