Not quite as accurate as other trackers but at least this one ALWAYS works. Very pleased with it ,have been using for almost a year.
Sometimes the tracker is not at the right location or doesn't detect when the person has moved which isn't good. That's the whole purpose of having a tracker. Still showing that my son is home when he left hours ago OR lately it has been showing that he's leaving the house and coming back when he's here. Sigh. When it does work well which is most of the time, it's fine. But when it's not, then it's a little disturbing.
got worse as recently more often it shows totaly wrong location that the real one - based on some previous location history or even random place. It doesn't indicate that someting is wrong (bad signal, etc.), so you get the impression that location is set accurately ( as it shows real time). The batery saving is turned off, so it's not the reason
This app is Not accurate. I use it to check on my husband, who has dementia issues, and it tells me he is miles away when in bed asleep. A total waste of money.
