Tracker

I use life 360 , you can buy tags , best app ever my whole family use it

Tile trackers

Life 360 app and can buy tiles. My partner can be 20 miles away from me and I can see where he is. Also shows if walking or driving and speed etc xx

@katie do they have to have a phone as well or just a tiles?

@NuttyNut they can just have tiles and you link it to the 360 on app on your phone xx

@Lotti @Elizabeth @katie I’ve read about Tiles and Life360 but am concerned that it’s Bluetooth and not GPS… do you find the tracking is precise and quickly updates for the Tile? Does it show a history of where it’s been and does it track far away or do you have to be quite close? Sorry for the questions, not finding much help on YouTube 🤦🏻‍♀️x

It definatly has a form of GPs it's not just Bluetooth as when my partner turns WiFi off on his phone it says to turn back on for more accuracy. I've never had issues with it not being precise. The odd times when he's had really bad signal It's took a few minutes to update. I am 27 miles away from him and can see where he is. I can see the route he took there. I can see how long the drive there took. Without premium you can see 3 days history I'll screenshot mine now and show you xx

Can get directions to them too. And if its phone shows there phone battery etc x

That sounds good, so does this work either phone to phone without the tiles or with the tiles for animal or kid? Did you get tiles? Were they expensive? :) Thanks for all the info, appreciate! x

@NuttyNut we only use it phone to phone. I haven't had the tiles myself but my friend uses them x

@katie thank you for your help 😊x

@katie I was wondering if the tiles are working same as phone, because most trackers I've seen only work short distance for location tracking so I guess I am trying to ask if I get the tile would it work in distance without it being connected to the phone out there? Sorry I am rubbish at wording, let's say if I place one in my LO backpack and she has no phone to connect it to just the tile, am I still able to track her long distances? I can't find a proper answer to this online, not sure if I am being stupid here or what 😬😂

@NuttyNut I was wondering the same and found a video on YouTube where someone tested it on someone walking their dog and it didn’t work. I’m hesitant to buy one so have contacted Life360 to see what they say and what they can advise. What they’ve said so far is that it can take 15 minutes or more to update which obviously wouldn’t be ideal when tracking a child 😬 just waiting to hear back on any other recommendations they may have

@Incognito pls share what you found out as I didn't get far by looking myself x

@NuttyNut I haven’t had a response yet but will do when I get one 😊

@Incignito thank you :)
