Yes, but understand these are NOT GPS trackers. They are Bluetooth trackers and need a Samsung Galaxy phone near with Android 11. That cell phone has the GPS and celluar communication so thats how there are no monthly fee or subscription on the tracker itself, but if no Galaxy phone is around, then you get no update.

But if this tracker was in a stadium full of, iPhone users and not a single galaxy phone, then it wouldn't track. Because my galaxy phone would not be nearby. Correct?

The key to remember is these are bluetooht trackers not GPS Trackers with celluar communication. Bluetooth trackers are mainly for misplaced items and sometimes lost items with limitation and neither is not designed for stolen items!

It doesn’t track real time but it does ping where your valuables are at or in what direction it has been moved to, I have one on my bike and it tells me exactly where it’s at, you can most definitely use it for stolen items

[@jorgep1]

Very cool. I was wondering why this video's narrator would say it isn't for stolen items. Appreciate the extra info.

[@TrackThisNThat]

They are NOT designed for tracking stolen items because they depend on the presence of other people's Samsung Galaxy phones to be within BLUETOOTH range. The update isn't in real time, even if a Samsung Galaxy phone is within Bluetooth range (although it might work fine if it's stationary). However, any phone can use a Bluetooth tracker app to locate the tracker within seconds, making it so simple that even a 5-year-old could do it. Sure it's possible with A LOT of LUCK but it's highly unlikey to help you.

[@sparra98]

​@@TrackThisNThat it does have UWB support (for Samsung UWB enabled devices) according to the Samsung official website

[@robertmiller7849]

@@jorgep1 Cause someone with Samsung Galaxy phones has to be within 120m of the tracker. If they are not, you don't get updates. If the theif has an iphone, you'll never get an update. Its quite simple but people want to belive what they want to belive.

[@kyfisher3662]

i have a pushbike, motorbike and car that i want to have trackers on incase they are stolen, what would you recommend for this?

[@TrackThisNThat]

Here's your revised text: No, there is not a Bluetooth tracker on the market that I would recommend for 'stolen' items. Bluetooth trackers are easily detected with any modern phone, even by a 5-year-old, making them prone to being found and discarded. Although some people still use them for such purposes, occasionally a thief is careless enough and the owner courageous enough to retrieve the item. However, in most cases, the police will not take action based solely on a Bluetooth tracker. GPS trackers with cellular capabilities, such as LoJack, are specifically designed for tracking stolen items and are a more reliable option. The next best alternative would be your own GPS tracker with cellular communication, offering real-time tracking intervals of 1 minute or less, provided you conceal it effectively. These trackers are more challenging to locate using just a simple electrometry app on your phone, although it is possible. Keep in mind that these devices require a paid service, and their battery life is typically poor, making them more suitable for motorcycles and cars, as they can be wired to the main battery for recharging while in use. I hope this information helps, but if you have any further questions, please feel free to ask.

[@apostolicbible1]

can you use this as a sort of motion detector that when it moves your phone will notify you. I park my scooter outside and locked up, but if would be great if let's say someone tried to move it then an alarm would go off on the phone?

Hi, excellent video, would having a phone with ultra wide banding be of benefit of pin pointing your car if it got stolen and the smarttag2 was hidden inside? Providing there are other Samsung phones to ping off. My phone is the Samsung s20 + which does not have UWB. Im trying to work out if it would be of more benefit to have a phone with UWB for a more precise location if car was stolen. Thankyou :)

[@TrackThisNThat]

Thank you. I appreciate you watching and commenting. Please understand that Bluetooth trackers like this are not designed for stolen items, and since you plan to have a Samsung S20+ in the car, it's best to track the phone rather than the Bluetooth tracker. Although the S20+ is also not designed for stolen items, you need to make sure the phone is always powered, so you'll need to keep it hooked up to your car's power system and also have cellular service always on so it can report the GPS location. Understand that UWB is just a last few feet direction pointer. It's a visual aid to finding the SmartTag2 in areas where you cannot hear the ringer. If you're worried about your car being stolen, please consider something that is designed for stolen vehicles.

[@TrackThisNThat]

This is a Bluetooth tracker, not a GPS with cellular communication, so it has to be within Bluetooth range of a Samsung Galaxy user to update the location. Yes, people put them on luggage for 1. peace of mind that it's on the plane (not 100% reliable due to Bluetooth distance and easy interference) 2. If it doesn't make the plane, you may get an update on the location if a Galaxy user is within Bluetooth range. FYI: They are not designed for, and should not be used for stolen items.

[@meyman9]

I've been using the Samsung Tag plus for my suitcases for years now. It's really good at telling you if your suitcase is on the plane and whether it's was off-loaded into the terminal. Yes, it doesn't have gps but it's basically the same as gps. There will always be a person with a Samsung who will walk by or luggage handler's phone will report the location. The proximity search is not of great because you can see the suitcase by the time the phone detects it nearby. Put the tracker in the most hidden pocket of the suitcase and even if stolen the thief might not find it and you can track it to where he's holding it.

Products and boxes will sit in the manufacturer warehouses waiting, then once released, either they don't care about the mistakes, or they forget to put a sticker on the old boxes. I know a lot of Android Find Manufacturers' trackers have a lot of trackers sitting on their shelves, waiting for Google to release Android Find My, but it keeps getting delayed. If you have Android 9, you should buy the tracker from somewhere where it's easy to return, like Amazon, and try it. If it works, great (let me know); if not, it's a simple return.

Considering ng no one I know has a Samsung phone, how the heck will the tracking work - should have been GPS 👍

[@TrackThisNThat]

There are millions of Samsung Galaxy phones. There are a lot benfits on bluetooth trackers vs GPS Trackers with cellular communication. Yes GPS trackers with cellular communication are very cheap like bluetooth trackers, (some even cheaper) but they require a celluar plan that can cost between 5-50 a month. Plus the battery life on GPS trackers are terrible and have to be recharged every few days to weeks depending on how often they connect/update. At least with bluetooth trackers you get months of battery life and don't have monthly cost. Remember blueotooth trackers are NOT for stolen items!

@@TrackThisNThat I guess if you're travelling, living in a third world country you can rely on a Samsung phone being near by, but not a developed country - thanks for the reply all the same 👍

No gps no thanks

[@kweenjade01]

It's going to be hard to find something with a gps that you don't need a lifetime subscription for. I'd rather Bluetooth since almost everybody uses it. Sadly gps is the most accurate. Hopefully, soon we'll have market contenders with both.

E/thing you need to know, except how to set it up! :/

[@ed_ward6869]

Why can't it be used for stolen items?

[@TrackThisNThat]

They rely on other Samsung Galaxy users to be within Bluetooth range. They are not real-time. They have no GPS. They have no cellular connection. They can be found with simple Bluetooth scanners by a 5-year-old. It's too dangerous for you to hunt down thieves, and the police will most likely not help you based on simple Bluetooth trackers. It's a waste of their time.

​@TrackThisNThat Too dangerous to go get tour stolen items from someone who stole it? Since when? If you go to the police department, file a police report for a stolen item, and then tell them you know exactly where it's at then you will very likely have your item back that same day, ESPECIALLY if its a valuable item. In the USA, it can be a felony crime to steal something worth more than like $500 or something. If the police won't help you get your stolen things back, then go be a man and take your things back yourself. So many people live their lives in constant fear and have become spineless blobs.

How humanity survived without these gadgets for thousands of years?another useless thing people seem to can not live without.😂

[@saulsanchez528]

Completely useless when my whole home is full of apple 😂😂 ill never find my keys if nobody can update my trackers location

[@TrackThisNThat]

There's 584 Apple Find My bluetooth trackers to choose from. lol

[@khanaltamashsaf]

Basically its a shitty device.

[@stephenbroughton6718]

Stop sticking it where the sun doesn't shine then. Not everything battery operated is for you to play with.

[@someoneelse6934]

You parents probably have a similiar opinion about you khana

[@edicom1]

it can't use when your phone has no internet connection, is totaly useless product, u only can use this when your phone has internet connection, your galaxy tag also have internet connection.

[@MtnXfreeride]

So you want something with a built in cellular data modem and sim card? Itll be huge and drain battery.

[@alienwizards3246]

You forgot the part where none of these trackers work without an internet connection even tho they use bluetooth. Complete waste of money, lost my keys at work all I need to do is make them ring and the app wont even open without data or wifi. You might want to mention that part before people watch your video and go waste there money because your a samsung shill. unsubbed

[@TheMercer007]

Do not buy, complete waste of money, battery dies way to quick, lost my keys and this is useless

Dang that sucks to read cus I seriously just bought one...I'm not an apple user so the apple tags won't work and I've been needing some sorta tracker tag for luggage and my keys and was thinking of maybe trying it out on my kid with the waterproof case at the waterpark next week. So I'm wondering why you dislike, and if you have one?
