Ratings and reviews

After turning off my headphones luckily I was close enough to hear my phone say "Ok, but first you'll need to enter your pin (or whatever)." This was after several attempts and cranking the volume up on my headphones (but still couldn't hear what it was saying over them). Normally it works fine but with this latest update it isn't. Samsung S21 Ultra with all updates.

Has not successfully located any device since the ability/app was launched. I have attempted multiple times to test the ability to locate 2 Samsung phones and a Samsung watch. This app continues to state the devices can't be located, even when in the same room as me. All devices are on and connected to the same account. I am uninstalling this app.

WAY WORSE than existing tracker apps. No signal strength indicator, so impossible to narrow down where a tracker is. Worse yet, it doesn't even properly keep track of them! I can ring them, but not see if they're in range. Location updates happen only a few times/day, even when I click the refresh button. Marketed as an AirTag network alternative, but no. Other Android owners must opt-in to detect lost tracker locations "everywhere", effectively limiting the global network to only busy areas.
