fabulous tracker. accurate and easy app. easy to connect and hide. I show it as free as it works out at 30 per year for 5 years. my insurance has gone down by 40 per year for fitting it.
Had to connect it to a switch to reduce the battery consumption on my motorcycle
Found what i needed and was able to place the order quickly and arrived just as it needed.
Fantastic value for your money works very well easy to use with the app and easy to fit would recommend to anyone that has a high value car van truck Motorhome etc etc
I fitted this to a motorbike, the app shows current location to within a few metres, battery voltage which is handy, and for previous history you simply pick the day and it shows the route that was taken, average speed, top speed etc. It’s feels like a high end device for little money. Also I was worried about it draining the battery over time but it doesn’t seem to be an issue. Brilliant tracke
The app is pretty basic feeling, it’s not that obvious where everything is so you need to have a play to find settings and the logs and things like that.
You can pick a date in the calendar and it shows you stats from that day, it’s a heartbeat type gps ping every so often so if you zoom right in to the map then you get multiple points on the road and start and stop points. If the car stops then you get a parking type flag on the map.
It works out about 28 a year for the 5 years and that’s buying the unit and getting all the data on the sim included, after that when I checked the price is currently 50 for an extra 5 years which is easy maths so 10 a year is pretty good and the cheapest I’ve seen.
It’s 4 stars because the app feels clunky but it’s a very good unit to universal a bit of extra security. A good investment.
The tracker is simply packed in a brown card box with instructions and has spade connectors for connecting to the battery. The tracker operates on the 2G mobile network which is due to be phased out in preference to 4G and 5G, however this likely won’t be until 2033 for the UK and the end of 2025 for some European countries. Power is either 12 or 24 volts and the tracker is IP65 rated and is well sealed against the elements, fixing is by a sticky pad. The GPSBob app requires registration and then the IMEI code of the unit, which is printed on the unit, instructions and the box, and the activation code which is only printed on the box and instructions. Once activated the app shows the location on the map. Basic subscription is for Home, which just shows location, but this can be upgraded to Professional, currently 30 per year, which adds geofencing, or Enterprise, 60 per year, for business users. The SIM card is loaded with enough data for 5 years at the default reporting rates, every 12 hours stationary, or 30 seconds if moving. For the UK, where the 2G network is likely to be around for the next 5 years or so, this is a good tracker and having 5 years of data included is a no-brainer as other trackers cost 5 or 6 a month; for European use the more expensive 4G unit is probably a better bet. The unit is easy to fit and works well, recommended.
What sets this apart from other trackers is the fact it truly is a one time payment. Others are a lot cheaper than this but always have hidden fees that you will end up having to pay monthly to ensure you can fully track your car. Setup is very simple and even the less tech savvy amongst us will be able to achieve it. Just unplug your car battery place the cables on the terminal and replug the battery on top as I did in the video, its really that simple.
You get 5 years peace of mind from the internal sim-card that provides the gps location. After this all you have to do is top it up again. It still works out much cheaper than the other ones that use a subscription plan. The app updates every 30 seconds giving a very accurate location. Almost to the T. You can also see the location data for your unit over a 30 day period that can come in handy if you need to trace your steps.
All in all a very easy tracker to install. Once installed it can be forgotten for five years, saving you a fortune. I highly recommend!
I hope this review helps.
Super easy to set up and activate, just download the app, register on the app, and connect the two connectors to the positive and negative of your vehicle battery and you are done. Self-contained sim so no need to install anything or top up any data plan comes with 5 years of service (small print on instructions says average usage 5 days a week but also says device updates at least every 24hrs so not sure if you will get a full 5 years but data is easy to top up at the end of the data.
Accuracy is spot on, it got right on my driveway with pinpoint accuracy on the map, uses goggle maps with street view and satellite images.
Signal strength seems good I have hidden mine and was still able to get a signal and report on location.
The thing to consider is the 2G versus 4G question, for 30 more you can get the 4G version, however during my research on the lifespan of 2G there was confused status so it’s a good chance it will be around for at least the next 5 years which should more than pay for this tracker. Cost wise even if you get a data only SIM at 10 a month, for 5 years this is still the cheapest option.
Fitted mine to the Motor home for peace of mind.
You don’t need to spend a fortune on high tec trackers with paid support. This does the job great with a good tracking support on your own phone. Easy to set up.
