Update you have to keep the QR code, it logs you out every time, and is very confusing like I can’t even tell we’re Scarlet is.😡 ### 3/5 — Love the idea buttt… *2024-12-21, version 1.0.2* I love this idea, but the app is laggy and glitchy. I love the bracelet and shirts but the apps location map is not good. It doesn’t show enough. ### 3/5 — It keeps logging me out!! *2024-09-01, version 1.0.2* I love my turtle, but i wont be able to keep this QR code forever. It always logs me out, and I have no clue why. Please fix this and I’ll fix my review.. ### 3/5 — i rated this app a 4 before but i dont like it as much anymore😔 *2024-08-01, version 1.0.2* i got this app a couple weeks ago and my only problem was that u had to keep signing in, turns out thats not the only problem 🫤. recently I got 2 braclets and 3 turtle shirts and they ALL had the same turtle, scarlet🤷‍♀️. Turns out theres a lot of people that get that exact same turtle often. If they had a bit more turtles or atleast one other out of my shirts and bracelets then it wouldnt have been a decent app. Also this exact turtle (scarlet) didn’t have a video which is a bit weird cause my other turtle did. Simply southern PLEASE change your app🙏 ### 1/5 — Horrible *2024-04-04, version 1.0.2* App won’t work. Waste of money. Can’t locate the turtle name Scarlet. This is a scam. Don’t waste your money. Spent $75.00 on bracelets for my grandkids and i bought 4. 4 bracelets for $75.00 is crazy. We tried to contact simply southern and they kept making up excuses. Worst bracelet I ever bought. should’ve looked at the reviews first. ### 3/5 — Needs Work *2024-03-31, version 1.0.2* Fine app, logged in and my animal (Scarlett like everyone else) was there. It looks like they show data once every 24 hours from what I can tell. Gives base level info not really a whole lot. Improvements: - the map is very buggy. it freezes, zooms out when clicking on a pin, and is just a really bad setup. this could be improved if the map was a separate page instead of just inline attachment. app would be five stars if the maps glitches were fixed! additional improvements that would be nice: - more pics of the turtle or just turtles in general - more information on the specific turtle like how fast she swims, does she have any health issues currently known, does she have any specific things she likes, etc. ### 1/5 — Not worth $20 *2024-03-29, version 1.0.2* Everyone gets the same turtle and the map isn’t that good. Save your money!! Luckily I could return mine ### 1/5 — App won’t work *2024-03-20, version 1.0.2* I bought the cute sweatshirt, scanned the QR code, and got to see my turtle, Sandy. Downloaded the app, made an account and now I can’t see my turtle. I can’t even scan the QR code in my account to start over. If I wanted to buy another something and add that turtle to my account, I won’t be able to add it to my account. I even deleted the app and reinstalled it, didn’t work… ### 1/5 — So mad *2024-03-19, version 1.0.2* Don’t get this app I got like ten shirts and the app took my email after 17 tries and you can even track the turtle it only has there name and a picture do not Get !!!😡😡😤😤🤬🤬👿👿👿this app should be rated a 1.0 so bad if you get this app rip for you it surely will get you frustrated I almost cried trying to sign in ### 1/5 — Can’t Track My Turtle *2024-03-18, version 1.0.2* I can’t open the app and scan my QR Code so I can track my turtle. Seems like this is a scam to get you to buy the bracelet. Need to make sure it works before selling the bracelets. We also got Scarlet so it must be the same turtle across the board. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Simply Southern Tracker *2026-01-27, version 1.0.2* The bracelet is nice but the app took more than a day to load before I could do anything on it . ### 1/5 — Not worth it go get Fahlo *2026-01-12, version 1.0.2* I went to the simply southern store thinking I was buying a Fahlo tracker and bracelet but no. It was broken off on some beads and the tracker won’t even go on your app only on safari. If someone would tell me how to get it to work then pleaseeee!!! It was a waste of money. Just get fahlo brackets and make sure that it is Fahlo or you are gonna get a really cruddy tracker. ### 1/5 — Do not get *2025-11-08, version 1.0.2* I got an elephant tracker. It did not show me where my elephant was, and the app was impossible to use. Do not buy. Do not waste your money. ### 1/5 — DO NOT BUY THIS!!! *2025-05-12, version 1.0.2* I really wanted to get an animal tracking bracelet and I found the turtle one. I was very excited until I looked at the reviews and saw everybody else got the same turtle named "Scarlett" This really bothers me because on the packaging it says something like "track YOUR OWN turtle" and everybody else has the same one. ### 1/5 — DO NOT BUY *2025-04-16, version 1.0.2* Bracket was 15 dollars (USD) Also, signing in took me 7 tries, I thought it would be like Fahlo… but honestly it’s like a rip off version of Fahlo. 😒😒😒👎👎 ### 1/5 — Won’t let me sign in *2024-11-27, version 1.0.2* I got the app a couple weeks ago and I’ve been trying to sign in to the app almost every day and it won’t let me ### 1/5 — i hate it *2024-11-27, version 1.0.2* i feel duped ### 1/5 — Never get this app! *2024-06-14, version 1.0.2* I was out of town when I bought a shirt, and I was excited to come home and meet my turtle! When I scanned the QR code, it took me to the website. I tried to scan the code but it wouldn’t let me. I tried it on the app and tried to sign up, but it still didn’t work! My shirt is cute, but don’t buy a bracelet. It’s a waste of money. 😡😡😡 If you want a different type of tracking bracelet, get Fahlo. It works much better, and there are more types of animals. ### 1/5 — This app stinks😡🤬 *2024-05-31, version 1.0.2* When got my first turtle it showed up then when I got my second one the button to scan the QR code did not work😡😤, and I had just gotten my 6 year old cousin one to and that was super annoying because it WOULD NOT WORK! So please please FIX YOUR APP!🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿 ### 1/5 — DON’T BUY *2024-05-28, version 1.0.2* I got one out of town and when I got in the car I downloaded the app but there was a tap to scan the barcode, but it took you to page, but it didn’t give you the scan and I tried to scan the barcode, but there was no thing to scan it I tried to sign in, and it wouldn’t even let me sign in don’t waste your time. Don’t buy a bracelet. waste of money too much money. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Super sigma *2025-07-03, version 1.0.2* I bought a bracelet and I love it soooooo much. It was a good price and went to a good cause. Although I also got scarlet, I still think it’s worth it because I wanna help the ocean. ### 5/5 — Awesome App! *2024-07-19, version 1.0.2* I bought an item that supports conservation and got to track a sea turtle. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2024-07-19, version 1.0.2* This is a cool way to give back to the animals ❤️ ### 5/5 — Amazing!!! *2024-07-19, version 1.0.2* Such a great way to give back! Love watching the animals and can’t wait for the new! ### 5/5 — Works great *2024-07-19, version 1.0.2* Such a great way to give back ### 4/5 — This app is underrated *2024-08-09, version 1.0.2* I got this app because I had bought a shirt with the tracker on it, I love the shirt and I love that you also get to track an animal, with the shirt I got a turtle named “Scarlett”. I was super happy about it and thought that Scarlett was just such a cute name but, turns out a lot of people get the same turtle Scarlett so, I was gonna rate this five stars but because of that fact I rate it lower because I don’t like the fact that almost every single person gets the exact same turtle I wish that there was a variety. The shirt was super cute and the idea of the app is amazing just need to fix minor details! I do recommend trying this out, and I will be recommending it to friends! ### 4/5 — I love it! *2024-03-29, version 1.0.2* My turtle is Scarlet she’s 38 years old, and around 278 pounds. I love how you can track your turtles you get assigned from your QR code. I wish you could see at least more then 2 photos of your turtle, but I love it! ### 3/5 — Scarlet? *2026-03-08, version 1.0.2* I love tracking animals like loveeee I have two turtles I got comet a year ago and sequoia yesterday but I noticed everyone saying they got scarlet which is weird cause I did not get scarlet and all the reviews are from last year when I got comet but I love my animals I just don’t like how you can track them. It’s choppy, hard to see, hard to move, and overly complicated especially since their target audience is teen girls. ### 3/5 — Good idea *2025-08-09, version 1.0.2* App is great. It’s a good idea but the way that it chooses to perform and the way developers made it is very not user-friendly. I think that they should give this app updates. I understand that it’s hard to run the apps and tracking and all of that but you need to get more animals because I scanned three barcodes and I got the same turtle every time which is kind of crazy. They should at least have 40 to 50 turtles. They only have like four or five. I hope to see improvements in the next year or so your friend, animal lover. ### 3/5 — AMAZING but Scarlet really *2025-04-11, version 1.0.2* I read the reviews before buying it and thought people were exaggerating to learn I GOT SCARLET as most people do it’s frustrating to think you want to get a “pet” turtle to track just to find out your not special your one of thousands of people that got scarlet but on the bright side the bracket matches my swim team colors were the sea turtles with light blue and green colors btw IMPROVE YOUR APP and get more turtles😡🤬😤🐢. Update you have to keep the QR code, it logs you out every time, and is very confusing like I can’t even tell where Scarlet is.😡 But the app does have upsides like it’s a good birthday present or Christmas gift and it cool and fun for kids it’s really cool just please fix the stuff listed above --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
