Hello
The WhatsApp help number is fantastic for helping set it all up , if like me your not techy minded, they kept in Constant touch with me , and I soon had it all working with their help
Great tracker once set up
This is actually the second time I’m purchasing this tracker, it now comes with USB C making it easier to charge. Once its setup it does a great job with its sensor alarm and movement. The app is very useful and gives me peace of mind knowing my car is safe.
I even caught a thief opening my car door late at night so its well worth the investment.
This tracker works well and the setup support is EXCELLENT
Model TK918. 4G.
Great:
Works really well. Tracks well.
App is easy to use and free.
Free Giffgaff SIM works well.
Ada’s Whatsapp support was excellent! Really helped with step by step setup. Excellent English.
This comes with a charging cable, but not a plug FYI
Geofence and alerts work well – make sure your phone settings allow the app to run all the time in the background. Also ensure you allow notifications for the app. Make sure your geofence area is larger than 500m or it won’t work.
Strong magnet.
rubber cover at the SIM slot end to stop water and dirt getting in.
Not so great: Only reasons for 4 stars, not 5.
Probably needs charging about once a month. I was hoping it would last a bit longer.
Instruction leaflet is quite complicated… Use the WhatsApp help service. Excellent! Then it is no problem.
Highly recommend!
Good quality and great service
It’s the first tracker I bought and I’m very satisfied with the product. It locates my vehicle down to 25m and the vibration alarm recognizes already opening of the door. Battery life is really good. If you are not on a road trip for the whole week it last up to 3-4weeks and you will get a notice if the battery is running low. I had some little issues with the settings in the beginning but I reached out to the seller via what’s app and the service was great (very fast reply – even with the time difference). I can highly recommend this tracker and would buy it again.
Fantastic customer service!
I made contact with customer sevice to support with set up of tracker. The agent Ada Sell was very prompt in responses and gave accurate advice to set up sim (used own). App now working fine thanks to her advice. Would recommend 100% as customer service is excellent!
Great tracket, great support, great price
Got for tracking my boat at mooring, its really good, the sim provided is plug and play if you can’t be bothered to buy one and also good value
The WhatsApp support is excellent
Fully recommended!
Very affordable price and very well made quality!!
I was looking for a good anti-theft protection for a long time, and while browsing the offer, I chose a product from Winnse. I bought this tracker, it was sent to me very quickly, I had problems with setting the parameters, I quickly received help from the technical department of Winnes. Thank you very much for supporting the seller for cooperation, support and professional approach to the customer. If you want to buy this product GPS tracker and enjoy use and support throughout the warranty period, buy it from this seller. And what is very important, there is a SIM card inside that allows you to use the navigation for only 4.99. As we know, in the UK we can top up a SIM card with the operator for a minimum of 10, so the SIM card fee for a year for 48.99 with the WINNES operator is very useful. Thank you very much. Regards, Thomas
Greetings and thanks to the owner, dear ADA, a nice and professional business woman. I wish you success in further sales.
Good simple to use tracke
I am pleased with the tracker. It’s easy to use good battery life and with good support if you have technical difficulties. I will probably buy another one soon. Good valve.
Very reliable tracke
I bought this to use a car tracker, for security, and also when it goes into the garage I can get alerts when they move the car or test drive it. You can even get notifications if the car gets bumped. The tracking ability of these devices is awesome, I’ve had the non 4g version for over 5 years and the 4g version is even better, it will direct you to the exact spot your car is parked. The battery lasts for months and months and it’s small enough to hide where you want and also has a really strong magnet. I also have smart tags but this is far more reliable and also gives an exact location. I like that this is also usb c charging, I would definitely recommend, great value for price!
Al good.
After trying a cheapo GPS tracker I realised that my network provider doesn’t use 2G so it didn’t work. The amount on sale that are 2G only is vast so something to consider when looking for a tracker. Found this item which is 4G, popped the sim card in and within 30 seconds the blue and yellow led flashed showing it was working. Sent the sim card an sms code from my phone and got a reply straight away with a link to Google Maps. Clicked the link and I’d say it was accurate to within 2 metres!!! Brilliant. This unit is slightly larger than the 2G trackers but fine for me and it’s intended purpose. Not checked the magnet or checked it’s water tight as claimed as I’ll be using inside only.
Winnes GPS tracker.
Bought this for my mobility scooter. It requires an activated phone SIM to receive the GPS signal.but only uses your credit when the scooter is moving.other wise it seems to stay on standby I think without using credit or very little. I’m still testing it but up to now it’s been excellent. Battery seems to be quite good to. only used approx 30 percent in about 6 weeks. Should give out a battery warning at 20 percent.then it’s time to recharge.accurate GPS up to approx10-15 metres.very pleased with this product.
Great product!
I rely on multiple GPS trackers to keep a safety eye on outdoor education groups during expeditions. The Winnes TK913 has truly impressed me. Despite its small size, it performs just as well as the much larger trackers I own. It offers the same level of security in a compact package. I use the app that allows me to keep an eye on all my devices and easily move between each one very quickly. It’s super user-friendly and lets me track from anywhere in the world. What’s also great is no monthly fees like other trackers I had looked at. I just need a SIM card and I can then track my stuff and groups without worrying about shelling out extra cash every month. Setting it up was a breeze, thanks to the free app. I’m not the most tech-savvy person, but even I managed to get it up and running in no time.
Great, easy to use 4G GPS Tracke
I now have two of these trackers, the first one was bought over a year ago and so my review is based upon my experience since receiving my initial tracker. This tracker is easy to use and gives you both the options of receiving alerts by text and/or App push notifications which is really convenient. It has a host of settings that you can adjust to suit your needs and preferences. Battery life I have found is typically a month on a full charge based upon a few alerts/tracking per day; it would likely last longer if the device is not triggered as often. Unlike some other devices sold by other sellers, you are not tied into buying a subscription from this seller. Instead you buy your own SIM card (with its own plan) that you can use, thereby giving you flexibility. Only downside is that it’s slightly bulky but that’s due to the big battery it houses. Also, thanks to Ada from the support team who has been fantastic in helping me with my queries.
Good but documentation leaves a bit to be desired
Only bought this tracker a week or so ago but has some useful features. I use it for monitoring my caravan whilst it is in storage. Its hooked up to a small UPS to provide extra battery life so don’t have to recharge it every so many days. Jury out on this one, as yet.
The good: –
Gives accurate GPS results and tracking feature works well
Has several states to provide more active or less active GPS to protect battery life
Setup relatively simple
Has movement (vibration) alert
Support reasonably responsive and do help but this can be a bit of a long-drawn out process due to time zones.
App can communicate to device but changing settings does not always work because device is offline. However, it can be woken up by SMS message, e.g. status G123456#, and then it comes online. App should be able to wake it up though.
The bad: –
Small instruction manual in English and Chinese but so small difficult to read and understand modes.
Example commands not properly explained, like ‘Sleep time’ but no examples or proper explanation.
App for Android and iPhone quite good but NO documentation at all. This leaves you to guess how to use it based on the SMS commands.
The Geofence capability is great but with no documentation, it is guesswork and trial and error or place support call.
Overall the tracker seems like a useful bit of kit but you have to work at it to get the full benefit, and as I said earlier, only just started using it so not sure how well it works in practice yet, but hopeful it will do what it says on the tin!!
I originally bought one of these 4 years ago as a tracker for my motorcycle. It provides a subscription free option for keeping track of your vehicle. The battery life is very good – lasts about a month or two depending on use. The unit itself is palm sized and fairly easy to hide within your vehicle, I wouldnt however rely on the magnet if you at attaching it underneath your vehicle, I use strong velcro to keep mine in place.
I bought a giffgaff sim for the tracker and stuck a tenner on it 4 years ago – I’ve yet to need to top it up. It provides reliable tracking and has other great features such as geofencing and vibration alarm. You can track it via the tkstar website or the very useful app which is free to download.
The setup procedure isnt particularly easy- but most of the trackers I have purchased have come with decent instructions. I ended up writing a blog post with a guide on how to set these up, to make things easier for my friends who had bought them. http://hardtailchop.com/tkstar-gps-tracker
4 years later I now own 5 of these trackers! 3 for motorcycles, one for the car and another model (which looks like a rear light) for my bicycle. The customer support is particularly good and they have been able to add all of my trackers to the same app so I can track them easily.
I’ve recommended this tracker to many of my biker friends as a more cost effective option to the subscription based models – and they are also very happy with the product.
Will definitely buy more of these if I require them.
