Ratings and reviews

App has not seen an update since August 2018, and it tells by the icons, labels and other OLD elements used on the app. Functionality-wise, it seems to work fine. On the wishing list side of things, I would like to see the numeric value of the current battery charge, and not just a plain icon. This app needs a serious plastic surgery to bring it up-to-date.

App is unusable on Android. First of all, it hasn't been updated since 2018. Secondly, the app won't even let me log in (despite having the correct login information). Relying on a browser will makes it exceptionally difficult to track my family member with dementia when I need to go find her, which is why I purchased the Pocketfinder to begin with.

It doesn't seem to update "as frequently as every 10 seconds." Even when I adjust the power settings to constant update... It doesn't update when I refresh. I really regret getting rid of AngelSense, because both the app and PocketFinder under-deliver.
