Tracker Detect

Apple

About this app

Tracker Detect looks for item trackers that are separated from their owner and that are compatible with Apple’s Find My network. These item trackers include AirTag and compatible devices from other companies. If you think someone is using AirTag or another device to track your location, you can scan to try to find it.

Ratings and reviews

Though the Airtag is supposed to be out of range of its owner for a certain amount of time before this app will detect it and alert you, it doesn't work most of the time. So when it says no trackers detected, it's hard to trust that none are actually present. I know it's an app for Android, and that's probably why Apple choose is not to make it exceptional, but I really wish they would.

I scanned for my parents' air tags on their dogs, which were laying within 10 feet awa and it only detected one of them. After scanning again to find the second one, none were found, and after many repeated attempts, I finally found it again. When I finally found one again, I had to wait 10 MINUTES to play a sound from it, and when the 10 minutes passed, the app said it couldn't find it. Neither I nor the dogs had moved the whole time. My phone has no issues with Bluetooth.

App was last updated Feb of '22. Seriously? Use the built in option on your android phone, as long as the OS supports it and you have a recent phone such as pixel 7 or 8, maybe 6, but probably won't work on pixel 2. I tried the app and was able to see one after scanning with the app but didn't hear anything after 10 minutes of waiting to play a sound, and it didn't tell me anything such as distance etc. Removed.
