I can safely say I highly recommend this product - I was given a pod 3 in exchange for my honest review. Now that I've been using it for a few weeks, I can safely say I high... Read morely recommend this product.
My friend’s little cavapoo went missing for 6 days. On day 4, after focusing on sightings that ended up being of a completely different dog, I remember thinking she could be absolutely anywhere! That’s when I decided I was getting a GPS tracker for my puppy. I came across the pod 3 as one in a list of several trackers available on the market. What caught my attention was the fact that the pod was suitable for all breeds and sizes, and it came with a spare battery, ensuring my dog would never be unprotected while I waited for a battery recharge.
After testing the pod 3 for a few weeks, I am extremely pleased with its performance, accuracy and the level of service provided by the support team. The tracker is easy to use and lightweight, my 12 week old puppy didn’t even notice there was something extra attached to his collar.
-Having a spare detachable battery means you don’t need to stop using your tracker in order to recharge
-The virtual fence alerts you if your pet is out of your “safe” area - ie, if it ran out of the garden
-There’s access to a Support Chat within the app, meaning you don’t need to go around looking for different contact numbers to get assistance
-Customer Service and Support team are extremely personable and accessible
-The silicone strap fits tightly around the pod, meaning it is highly unlikely to come undone and get lost
-You get an alert on your phone when the battery is running low and should be replaced
I must admit I had issues getting my pod started. It seems like it got “stuck” in the setup process, meaning I didn’t have access to all features and couldn’t update the firmware. I was able to contact the Support team via a chat feature within the app, and in a couple of hours I had a reply explaining what I needed to do in order to allow my pod to reboot itself. It’s been smooth sailings since then and I have no complaints. I must say sometimes it takes 3 to 5min for the tracker to locate the pet, sometimes it updates straight away, but it doesn't bother me.
I understand GPS pet tracking is a very new technology and the pod 3 will get better and better with time. In my opinion it is already producing fantastic results. I am extremely happy with the product and would highly recommend it to any pet owner.

Read moretracking devices in the past and this one is by far the best. They were very easy to set up, connected without issue, and have worked flawlessly. The app is set up nicely, has an easy user interface, and is pretty intuitive. I can set parameters for my dog's activities during the day and check on their progress towards those goals at any time. We can go out on adventures and track those outings for future reference. And, I can easily locate the pups at any time whether out on a stroll or just chillin' inside the house just by pushing the locate button. The pod connects via GPS, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth thereby saving on battery life and lasting for 4-6 days depending upon your settings. It comes with two batteries so you never have to leave your dog unprotected- just switch out the batteries while the pod remains on your pup. Customer service has been quick to reply with helpful answers. When I was having difficulty getting my phone's Bluetooth to sync with the pods, they offered to call me to troubleshoot. To my surprise the actual owner of the company called and walked me through everything- now THAT'S customer service. It sounds like they have some pretty cool devices that they are working on for the future as well so I'll definitely be a repeat customer:)

I have had the Pod Tracker 2 for around 5 months now and I feel that I can give the product a full review. I bought this product as my cat went missing one night and I'm sure that ... Read morehe was stuck in someone's garage nearby. Firstly, the tracker seems well designed and secures well onto a cat's collar with the zip ties provided. Although it is a decent size (see pics attached of it on my cat, he is around 10 months old in this pic so not fully grown), I wouldn't say that it's too big and it's not really heavy enough for your cat to really notice it on their collar. The device appears quite durable, it's got multiple scuffs and scrapes on it now from my cat crawling under fences etc. and it hasn't affected the device at all. The battery system works well with having two batteries, meaning that you can always have one charged up ready to replace the other (I tend to just swap the battery every morning before letting my cat out so that it's got a fresh charge, it would probably last for 2 days but I prefer to just have a fresh one every morning).So, to the important bit, the actual tracking. When I first started using the Pod I found the tracking not very effective, I would only actually get a location on my cat probably once in every 5 attempts at tracking, and this is in an area that has full 4G coverage, much higher than the 2G coverage required. I was in contact a lot with the Pod team about this issue who were quite responsive in helping me try to fix this, even calling me from Australia to try and guide me through a few options. After a few weeks like this I had accepted that the item wasn't great, but I then started using the 'safe zone' feature which really seemed to improve things, along with the Pod team updating the app to a new interface which was a lot easier to use. When using the safe zone feature, the tracker will automatically connect to the device at time intervals which you determine (I have mine set to refresh the location every 20 minutes which doesn't waste the battery too much), to make sure your pet is staying close to home, it will send an alert to your phone if your pet leaves this zone and when they subsequently return to it. Having this constant refresh rate seems to make the Pod much more responsive to finding my cat and I rarely cannot view his location whether it picks him up on WiFi from the houses around mine or in GPS locations in the fields behind my house.In other reviews I have noticed people mentioning that the tracking is not as accurate as they would have hoped, only giving a location within about a 5-10 metre radius of your pet, I would say that this is probably true but in all honesty from a device that is trying to track a small moving object (i.e. my cat), it's more than adequate at providing an accurate enough location to give you reassurance of where they are. Overall I would say that the product is well worth having if you just want to make sure that your pet is staying close by and as a back-up in case they go missing, I would also recommend using the safe zone feature so that you are constantly getting a location on your pet at whatever time interval you choose.

The pod comes with 2 batteries and a charger so its easy to change the battery and takes about 1 second.

My dog is a mexican street dog rescue with (what i think is) a low flight risk, however i just don't know what his reaction would be to fireworks, a large truck driving by, etc so I use the tracker as a precaution. I work in rescue and I have had too many sleepless nights worrying and looking for lost dogs.
A lost dog can cost hundreds to thousands: $200-600 + in flyers, hiring a company to find the dog, renting cameras for locating and the time spend manning a trap. Its just too stressful. The pod was well worth the investment.
Analogy: winter tires $400-600. Average deductible for car in accident $500-$1000. Well worth investing in winter tires and avoiding the deductible but most of all The Effects!

Read more the best one to date. It is small enough for a 15 pound dog. The battery lasts at least 2 - 3 days. I have had the POD since it came out and it has improved drastically with each roll-out.

I like that I can see how active my dog was each day. How many minutes he walked and how many he ran, when and how the day compares to other days. The one feature I am looking for on future devices will be tracing a dog's body temperature. A vibration button would also be great, but I can see how that would make the device bigger and heavier. The one thing that needs to be improved is how the pod is attached to the collar. Once you tighten the strings (which is a pain in the you-know-what), you cannot switch collars.

It usually does a pretty good job of narrowing down which yard he's in, at which point I can find him chasing squirrels up trees or checking out a flower bed. And, I really like the Safe Zone feature - if he travels outside a designated area that I feel safe with him staying in, I get a notification on my phone that he has traveled outside of the area and it shows me on the map where he is.It's given me such peace of mind with my move.

Read moret a cat out of a tree. Following this incident we bought a Pod 2 from Amazon. Here are a few things that might help future prospective purchasers.
When you first switch it on with a long press, the LEDs will light up and then go out for about 10 secomds before they begin to flash during the warm up period, which lasts another few minutes. Don't worry that the GPS one remains blue - it seems to stay blue until you use the "locate" function on your phone, tablet or PC for the first time. On this, when you first hit what looks like the "locate" button on-screen, you actually need to press "Find Romeo" at the top of the screen (OK, so your cat will probably have a different name).
It can then take a couple of minutes to make contact with the collar and get a location fix. Quite often the initial location fix is pretty wide, but give it a minute and it will "home in" to I guess about a 2m to 3m radius. If it doesn't work first time, just try again. It seems pretty accurate and reliable, but bear in mind that if the cat is under a car or such like the GPS can't get a particularly accurate fix.
From there on its pretty straightforward, but do make sure to attach the Pod to a high visibility collar - if it comes off in dense undergrowth, trying to find the black Pod is nigh on impossible.
The adventure mode seems to work pretty well too, where the Pod will log your cats position every 10seconds or so for you to then download when he or she gets home. You need to be on the adventure page and then select "sync" from the menu to initiate the download - be patient as it can take a few minutes for the download to work and we have only got this working with an iPhone and an android tablet - the Windows laptop doesn't seem to work, though that might just be us.
I ought to also mention the customer service - it's not instant, but they are a remarkably helpful lot who will do what they can to help you out.
Ah - I forgot to mention one more thing. We've taken to only putting the cat collar on just before he goes out and taking it off when he gets in. He seems to be quite happy with this and there is no sign of any bald ring developing around his neck which is good.
One final thing - you are best using two small cable ties to attach Pod to collar - the straps they provide are very tricky to get on, and the cable ties they also provide are a bit big - you also only need two which lets you sit the big bit of the cable tie in the recess in the Pod - this will make more sense when you see it.
In summary, it is a good device that is fine for larger cats who aren't too highly strung - I think we'd struggle to put one on our 3kg female who is rather more nervy than Romeo.
Hope this helps!

Thank you for saving my dog - I would also like to share something with you. An experience I had with trying to find my dog Jack. I have a small resort in Phuket, Thailand ... Read moreand Jack roams freely around the resort and further than he should. The resort has no security fence so Jack, being a beagle, and only 11 months old, goes wandering the srteets on adventures. I couldn't watch him every minute of the day and with working it can be some time before you realize he is missing. Before I bought PodTracker we would have to get on the motor bikes and search the streets looking for him. I always had a fear one day we are sure to lose him because here in Thailand there aren't many pure bred dogs. They are all street dogs here so Jack was always in danger of being stolen because of his was value and so so cute. I knew I had to do something or I would lose him very soon. I searched the internet and found PodTracker. When I received it, I felt a relief but hoped it did what it said it would do. It was happy with it's performance and it made life so much easier and I felt relief that now I can find him wherever he is. This is my story: About a month after purchasing and using PodTracker I noticed Jack was not around anywhere in view. So I checked his location with PodTracker GPS (my resort is about 1 kilometre from the Rawai Beach). I was finding it difficult to get a signal and got an occasional one but it was showing that he was in the ocean about 100 metres offshore. I thought it must be an inaccurate location. There is no way Jack would be in the ocean. He is scared of waves and deep water. When I went to the beach I searched up and down the street for half an hour. I knew he wouldn't go near the water. It was night time and there was a king tide so therefore there was no beach and the waves were breaking onto the retainer wall to the street I lost the signal again and couldn't get it back. I went back home and prayed that he would come home soon. Another 30 minutes passed and I was desperately trying to get another signal. after about 5 attempts to got a signal. The signal again showing him in the same location 100 metres offshore. I went back to the beach road and asked staff in restaurants had they seen him. Nobody had seen him. They were so nice that they helped me try find him. I showed the restaurant staff where he was on the tracker device and it must be wrong because the water was so rough that night that it would be impossible for any person or dog to swim in there. I yelled out his name so many times along the street but couldn't find him. I thought I would never see him again. We stood at a section of the retainer wall that was broken and was stacked with sand bags that had slipped down into the rough water so there was a way in or out of the ocean from the retainer wall. I decided to also yell into the ocean because my heart was sinking so fast now. It was about the same location as where the signal was offshore. I yelled his name again and again and turned back away from the ocean and yelled his name across to the other side of the road. Then suddenly out of nowhere Jack was at my fee soaking wet and covered in sand. My heart was filled with such Joy. He came up out of the ocean but there was no beach and big waves breaking onto the retainer wall. I thought how could this be. Jack is terrified of waves but he come up from the water because he was drenched and covered in sand. The only thing I can think of is that he had been stolen and put on a boat offshore, There are speed boats all moored offshore about 100 metres from the shoreline. It could only be that someone had stolen him and taken him offshore and put him on a boat. The operators of the boats come to shore and hang around on the streets chatting at night. One of them must have decided to steal Jack and put him on his boat. Jack must have heard me yelling his name from the road, so he must have decided to jump out of the boat and somehow swim to me. It would have terrified him to have to do that. He must have known he had no other choice but to try to swim to the broken part of the retainer wall. When he was at my feet he was so happy and loving and licking me like he had not seen me for a week. It seems now the tracking device was accurate and also that is maybe why it couldn't get a signal easily because he was in the ocean. If it wasn't for PodTracker on that night I would have lost my little Jack forever. PodTracker found him for me so thank you for saving Jack for me xo. If anyone thinks of purchasing a tracking device you have to be sure that it can track your pet far from home. If it can't then it is useless. I am so thankful that I bought PodTracker that can track on GPS accurately. If I hadn't, I would not have Jack today. He would only be a memory now and I would never have known what had happened to him. If you love your pet and it has a habit of straying, then I highly recommend Pod Tracker because you never know when something could happen and without Pod Tracker I had no hope of finding my little Jack.
I have never written a review for any product before but I think PodTracker deserves it because I have my Jack with me now only because I bought PodTracker for Jack.
A big big thank you!!!!

I live in the D.C. metro area, where there is great 2g coverage, so this product works very well for me. The Pod does not pin-point the exact location of your pet to the inch - that technology would either be too heavy for a cat or become cost prohibitive. We'll have to wait five years for that tech to come about! In the meantime, the Pod gets me within about 20 feet of my cat, which is enough for me to find my cat on my own. In my neighborhood, within 10 meet brings me to the only bush or deck that my cat could be under.
Being able to know that my cat is within my block and not crossing streets gives me the piece of mind that he is safe. The wifi alerts allows me to know when my cat is back within my house area. Adventure mode let's me know that my cat is active or just finding another bush to sleep under all day.
The spare battery that is included is another bonus. Other trackers do not have this option. The spare battery allows me to always have a charged battery on-hand so that I can always let my cat outside and he can be happy.
For the negative reviews, read the product description! This product is great for a person that lives in a 2G coverage area, needs to get within 20 feet of the pet, and wants to track the locations of the pet. I have tried other trackers and those products do not come close to meeting the product description. I have been using the Pod for months now and it has brought piece of mind for me and an adventure life-style for my cat, which is exactly what I wanted!

However, a few weeks ago she did disappear for a couple of days and as a result of this I looked into the range of tracking systems which might be available for cats. Having looked at the market the Pod 2 (now featuring a Wifi link) seemed like the best product about. Key elements are the size of the device - Similar to that of an old 35mm film case - battery life for the unit, and it's weigh. My cat is small and certainly some products on the market seem more suitable for dogs, and at least one suggests a minimum weigh if used with a cat. This unit is light, and relatively svelte. A little to my surprise the cat is completely unconcerned about wearing the tracker on her collar. Another advantage is that the cylinder-like tracker can be attached to any collar.
In use the battery lasts for two plus days, a spare battery is provided so the collar does not need to be removed for charging (literally changing the battery takes 5 second), and the whole unit is waterproof. The associated app allows you to see your cats activity aspatially - so how many minutes or hours has it spent running, walking and sleeping (mine likes to sleep and not to run). It facilitates on demand cat location which first uses Bluetooth to see if your cat is very near to your device if you're at home, then sees if the Pod is connected to your wifi, indicating if the cat is nearby, and finally outside wifi range GPS technology is used and the Vodafone UK 2G phone network passes the latitude and longitude of the collar to the app. You can also select a short-term tracking option which will geolocate your cat over a period of time so you can see how far he or she roams. This dramatically reduces battery life to around 8 hours so is really best used to see your cats daily movements. Finally you can set a 'safe zone' and receive an alarm if the cat wanders beyond a specific distance from home.
The pod has three lights on it which activate when you push a button on one end of the tracker. One gives you battery life, the second whether the tracker is connected with a 2G network and the third shows wifi/GPS connectivity. All are clearly visible, but are only illuminated when the button is depressed.
As a cutting edge device I'm very impressed. It consistently locates the cat almost all of the time. Whilst demonstrating that the cat does not stray far, it still results in considerable peace of mind. I have a second cat, who roams to an even lesser degree, and am serious considering getting a Pod 2 for her. The app is particularly solid and impressive.
It's worth being aware that there is a £30 annual recurrent charge for using the Pod 2, something included in the price from Amazon for the first year. This is to cover the cost of linking the Pod to the 2G network. If the Pod is lost, the manufacturer will make a replacement available to you at a reduced cost together with helping you to locate the lost Pod.
Downsides, well there are few, especially for such new technology. You do need to remember to change the battery regularly, but as you always have a spare which can be left to charge via a USB port, this is not too much of a problem. A more significant issue is if you're in an area which has poor 2G connectivity. You can check this via Vodafone's network coverage checker. Overall 2G coverage is pretty comprehensive. Without 2G once the cat is beyond wifi range when the GPS unit records the location there will be no way to report this to the app. I would like the collar to link to smart home technology, or at least via an IFTTT channel, via something like Samsung's SmartThings so you could find out if your cat was at home, or receive a text when the cat was within wifi range.
No doubt this type of technology will develop further with lighter devices coming along, and ones using 3G or even 4G, all with better battery life. At the moment though this is star-of-the-art and well worth an investment if you have a wandering cat. A solid four stars for this product.

Works for us - After considering a number of cat trackers we decided on this one. We bought directly from the company (not from Amazon), & they were very helpful over when t... Read morehey would be in stock in the UK etc. and a couple of other queries. We read all the blurb on their website & were aware that recording adventures or frequently locating the Pod 2 would reduce the battery life but liked the way the Pod came with its own spare battery & charger, no more purchasing batteries or having a tracker that couldn't be used as the device/battery needs to be removed from the collar for recharging.
We already had the Loc8tor tags on our cats which use RFID technology but you need to know where they are in the first place as it only works within 600 feet max. We have also used the G-Paws GPS recorder (no live tracking) on one cat so were well aware of how far he could roam & also the occasional GPS location spike/glitch particularly around electrical installations (e.g. sub-stations) or even under cars. We live in a housing estate on the edge of a country park so combine, houses, gardens, roads, fields & woods so a good proving ground. The Pod 2 is heavier than either of our previous devices but he weighs in at around 5Kg so he is over the recommended minimum weight for the device & he copes quite well with it on his collar
We got the Pod 2 as one of our cats has a permanently weakened leg after Achilles tendon & cruciate ligament injuries so wanted to be able to fine him if anything gave way, without forcing him to be an indoor cat. We first tested the Pod 2 when we took him out on a walk on a harness & lead (exercise to improve muscle tone after the operation) before letting him loose again. We had no trouble locating him on those walks & even took the Pod into a wood & it was successfully found.
Since we have used it in earnest we have recorded adventures which look reasonable for his known travels on a Google map's display. 90% of the time we locate him it is fairly accurate but occasionally we do get some jumping around but in the same area so we know where he is. We have had the odd "not found" but he soon comes into range, not sure what is the problem in that location but it is consistent.
Currently we are keeping the cats in overnight & we find it useful to check if he's coming home, or where to go look for him if he's not. It is nice to see his location on a Google map's display on a PC, sitting in the comfort of the living room, on switching to a mobile phone if we need to go look for him. We still keep the Loc8tor tag on his collar as he's used to responding to its beep. . However if we didn’t already have these tags then we would still be happy with the Pod 2 for locating.
It uses both Wi-fi hotspots (in preference) & GPS location to find him. GPS location (unless you are the military) is only accurate to 5 metres whilst Wi-fi location covers a wider radius so it is never going to be be pinpoint accuracy unless military GPS precision becomes available to civil applications. However this is still, for us, better than not knowing where our cat is, especially as he could be injured, or at least where to start looking.
We have had a few hiccups with the Activity synchronisation but any issues have been promptly resolved given that their offices are in Australia with the appropriate time differential to the UK. Also Activity synchronisation is not a critical part of the system just interesting to see how much the cat has been moving or at rest.

After considering a number of cat trackers we decided on this one. before we bought the Pod 2 we had some queries including when they would be in stock in the UK etc. and a coupl... Read moree of other queries, customer services were very helpful. We read all the blurb on their website & were aware that recording adventures or frequently locating the Pod 2 would reduce the battery life but liked the way the Pod came with its own spare battery & charger, no more purchasing batteries or having a tracker that couldn't be used as the device/battery needs to be removed from the collar for recharging.
We already had the Loc8tor tags on our cats which use RFID technology but you need to know where they are in the first place as it only works within 600 feet max. We have also used the G-Paws GPS recorder (no live tracking) on one cat so were well aware of how far he could roam & also the occasional GPS location spike/glitch particularly around electrical installations (e.g. sub-stations) or even under cars. We live in a housing estate on the edge of a country park so combine, houses, gardens, roads, fields & woods so a good proving ground. The Pod 2 is heavier than either of our previous devices but he weighs in at around 5Kg he is over the recommended minimum weight for the device & he copes quite well with it on his collar
We got the Pod 2 as one of our cats has a permanently weakened leg after Achilles tendon & cruciate ligament injuries so wanted to be able to fine him if anything gave way, without forcing him to be an indoor cat. We first tested the Pod 2 when we took him out on a walk on a harness & lead (exercise to improve muscle tone after the operation) before letting him loose again. We had no trouble locating him on those walks & even took the Pod into a wood & it was successfully found.
Since we have used it in earnest we have recorded adventures which look reasonable for his known travels on a Google map's display. 90% of the time we locate him it is fairly accurate but occasionally we do get some jumping around but in the same area so we know where he is. We have had the odd "not found" but he soon comes into range, not sure what is the problem in that location but it is consistent.
Currently we are keeping the cats in overnight & we find it useful to check if he's coming home, or where to go look for him if he's not. It is nice to see his location on a Google map's display on a PC, sitting in the comfort of the living room, on switching to a mobile phone if we need to go look for him. We still keep the Loc8tor tag on his collar as he's used to responding to its beep.
It uses both Wi-fi hotspots (in preference) & GPS location to find him. GPS location (unless you are the military) is only accurate to 5 metres whilst Wi-fi location covers a wider radius so it is never going to be pinpoint accuracy unless military GPS precision becomes available to civil applications. However this is still, for us, better than not knowing where our cat is, or at least where to start looking, especially as he could be injured.
We have had a few hiccups with the Activity synchronisation but any issues have been promptly resolved given that their offices are in Australia with the appropriate time differential to the UK. Also Activity synchronisation is not a critical part of the system just interesting to see how much the cat has been moving or at rest.
Customer service has always been very helpful &, as already stated, we are pleased with the device.

They did send me replacements and they also suffered from the same fate. Recently, they made changes to the pod (battery locking mechanism) and sent me replacements with the latest version. I noticed immediately that the casing material seemed closer to the first generation and have had no problems to date (about 6 weeks so far.)

The only slight glitch to finding your pet is whether or not the POD is within signal range. That has nothing to do with the POD and is therefore beyond the control of PodTrackers. As time progresses and mobile phone masts are installed, this signal problem should be sorted out.

Read more and my dog has the freedom to roam wherever he wishes, so I use the POD App on my iphone (literally every day and sometimes multiple times in a day) to track him when he leaves the safe zone and I always know where he is. And if I ever want to bring him home right away, I know exactly where to go to retrieve him. It's very easy to use. You simply set up your safe zone. When the safe zone is breached, you automatically receive notifications on your phone. Every so many minutes your pet is outside of the safe zone, you will continue to receive notification updates reporting the distance your pet is outside of the zone. And it even tells you when your pet has arrived back inside of the safe zone. If you want to see where your pet is, you simply open the App on your phone and it literally shows you on a map where your pet is located. I also travel out of state for work and get the same updates on my phone wherever I am at, hundreds of miles away, so I know where my dog is always! My wife is also able to use the same App on her phone. This product is very unique in that it not only uses GPS, but also now Wifi with the POD 2, which helps make the tracking that much more reliable if you are in town and/or around wifi's as it picks up those location signals. I notice this when we travel into town with our dog. It even picks up signals from my neighbors' wifi's out in the country when he is visiting them. Changing batteries is so easy too! The POD design is such that the POD Tracker stays on your pet's collar always and you only swap the batteries out with a charged one when low, unlike other competitive products where you actually have to remove the tracking device from your pet to charge it. POD provides you with two batteries, so you always have one in the charger and your pet is NEVER without an active tracker on them! You will also receive low battery alerts on your phone, so you know when to change the battery. The customer service and warranty support is also very good. I recently had a damaged battery issue (not sure how that happened) with one of my batteries. I contacted customer service, provided a copy of my proof of purchase and a couple photos of the problem and they simply agreed to ship me a replacement at no charge. So, they stand behind their product too! It doesn't get any better than that! Awesome product and great service support! You cannot go wrong with this one! Kuddos to the POD people!

3 cats, all fine with Podtracker - We love the podtracker! We have 3 cats, all different ages and sized 7 pounds to 17 pounds. The pros with the podtracker start with peace ... Read moreof mind. Yes, in some cases, the tracking is slow and off by 50 feet. But, frankly, who cares? If you know your pet is within fifty feet, that is hugely helpful in finding them, and at least you know they aren't dead or miles away.. Shake some cat food, and they come running.
The best part about the Pod that we found is the Adventure Tracker. All cats allowed outside have territories reaching generally less than 300 yards in any direction. The Adventure Tracker allows you to record their travels all day. After several days of this, it is clear what their territory is. It turns out that our cats pretty much do the same thing everyday, even in the same order. They visit other houses, visit a local pond, hang out under specific trees, chase prey, etc. It is fun to see what they do all day! Plus, should the tracker battery die, or the collar fall off, you can still be pretty confident your cat is in her territory, and you can limit a search. We did have a break away collar come off, but if you are checking your app, you can see the "cat" staying in the same place for hours...you just go get it before the battery dies, or note where is if you are out of the area. After that, we used black electrical tape around the breakaway latch and no more problems. I just ordered "stretchy" collars that don't breakaway to see if that works better and will update.
None of our cats seem to notice the pod. I was worried it would be bulky, but even our small cat has no problems.
I do wish the batteries latest longer, but I wish that for all my cellular gadgets. I would not have bought the pod without 2 batteries. One charges while the other is on. Yes, they are hard to put on, but you get used to it.
We are about to move 2000 miles away, and I can't imagine how I would handle the stress without knowing I can track the cats should they 1) get away at a hotel stop or 2) get lost at their new house before they really know where they live.
My kids find the app old fashioned and faulty. I have had very few issues. It has had glitches, but mostly they are small, and the company fixes them and lets you know by email that they are fixed.
The customer service has been great, but yes, the company is in UK and email is necessary. But, come on, that is true for MANY companies these days. If you can't deal with that part, then you probably won't like this technology in general.
I couldn't live without my Podtracker now! I'm giving it four stars based on the app being out of date IMO.

A few days turned into a few weeks, before he finally reappeared on his own at 5 am, after 2 days short of 6 weeks missing. Naturally we were ecstatic.
Knowing that we could not keep him inside for ever, I was anxious to find a tracking system that works. We are very happy with our Pod. It does not pinpoint his position exactly, but it gives us the peace of mind that he is not out of our area, which is the biggest concern.

Now we have the comfort of being able to check his location every 1/2 hour or so when he is outside, and after 2 months of use, I find the Pod to be very reliable.

The day my Pod arrived, I plugged in the battery to charge it up before its first use (it comes with two batteries and a separate charger -seems like common sense- but other tracking devices don't include this). As I was reading the quick start guide (simple and straightforward) it occurred to me that this would be a great thing to use on my upcoming trip to DisneyWorld with my young daughter. I then did some checking on-line for GPS trackers for use in keeping track of children. I didn't really find anything that seemed to live up to what Pod says it can do... and since I was leaving at the end of that week, I decided to take Pod to DisneyWorld. I put an elastic band on Pod and my daughter wore it attached to her clothes each day we were in the park.

Amazing Product. Great deal of thought to design and implementation has gone into this excellent pet tracker. - About 12 days ago our dog Maisie went missing for 26 hours. I... Read moret was completely uncharacteristic of her, a complete shock, and a very worrying time for us.
We had no idea where she was, and despite the odd sighting, some incredible local support and help from friends and complete strangers, communications on Facebook, Twitter, text messages and alike, we searched tirelessly for her and were unable to track her down.
Amazingly after 26 hours missing we got a call from the police who happened to be driving past our house and found this loose dog on our driveway. Maisie had found her way home from an area that she had never been to before, over 10 miles away. We were stunned.
Fair to say that as a family we NEVER want to experience that kind of traumatic situation again. The feeling of completele and utter helplessness when trying to figure out where she might even have been.
So I went and did what every self-respecting man in my situation would do. I went out and got a gadget to solve the problem. In doing so I scoured the market for a GPS pet tracker that could provide the kind of immediate information that, God forbid, we should ever face this situation again, would give us some greater hope in pinpointing Maisie early on and save us the agonising wait and worry.
I opted for Pod Tracker which seemed to tick all the boxes, and then some. It was small, compact, waterproof, had a decent looking app to support it, and a few clever extra bits of thought in product design that made me decide on this one.

However, this cat just "has" to go outside. He will tear down the curtains and punch out the screens if he's if he's not let out, and then he's happy as a clam outside. Our vet agrees that some cats just have to be allowed outside. But my wife is afraid we'll lose him... so what to do? That's where the Pod Tracker has been amazing.
Cat goes outside, and if you're worried about where he is you just check your phone. If you need to go out for the rest of the day and you want him back inside, I just check my phone and go get him! More than anything else it's reassurance. It's small enough and light enough that our mid-size cat doesn't mind it at all. It even beeps when he leaves a pre-determined "safe zone," but I don't really find myself using that feature much. What I actually did was set the "save zone" to be right around the house that way it beeps when he "re-enters" the safe zone and that way I know he's ready to be let back in! Battery length is way more than adequate, especially since it comes with two of them.
Highly recommend.

Lives up to the hype! - As the founder and manager of the Israeli Center for Lost and Stolen Pets, I am pleased to give this product my seal of approval. Although version 1 ... Read more(which is no longer being sold) was a little buggy, version 2 has been perfect. In fact, this is the first pet GPS that I have ever given 5 stars, and the ONLY pet GPS that is cat-compatible that I have EVER given more than 1 star.
I left the Pod on my personal dog for 6 months. I have several dogs in the house and they play rough, but the Pod survived everything they threw at it. In fact, it had a serious bite-mark in its shell, but still remained sealed, waterproof and working.
It's definitely waterproof. My dog has gone swimming in the ocean numerous times with Pod, and it continues to work perfectly. Sand and salt? No problem!
The dual battery system is really the most impressive feature of the Pod. Whereas most pet GPS's require you to periodically remove the dog's collar, remove the GPS, charge it overnight and then return it to the pet's neck, Pod comes with two batteries and a tiny USB charger. Whenever the Pod app tells you that the battery is low, you switch the empty battery from the Pod with the full one from the charger. This prevents the serious issue of forgetting to put the GPS back on the pet after charging.
29 grams, the size of a wine cork... my cats don't mind it at all.
In conclusion, as the founder and manager of the Israeli Center for Lost and Stolen Pets I can honestly say that this is the first ever pet GPS that actually has lived up to the hype.
I was not given a Pod for free, but rather purchased mine.

Works pretty good - The Pod Tracker has been good. I have used it for a month and the pod has located our Bella (our little 6 lbs Yorkie Mix) almost every time. There has been one ... Read moreor two times where the pod was not able to connect, due possibly to cell network issues or GPS signals being blocked by trees or something else. I have tested the Locate feature on her in several places (woods, inside our car, in the house, etc.), each time the pod Tracker located Bella on the iPhone app within about 15 feet. I feel better knowing I can locate her if she escapes, which she constantly attempts. The pod tracker app incorporates Google maps and is easy to use. Press "Locate Now" when you want to find your pet, then wait about a minute until the Pod location and your location is updated on the App. After the initial location is updated the Pod Tracker seems to update much faster (every ten seconds or so) for about minute more before stopping to locate. If you need to locate the pet for longer than 1-2 minutes you will have to press the "Locate Now" again. At first I thought the initially time to locate was a little long, but there is a lot of high tech going on....I think the process goes something like this: 1st. When you press "Locate Now" your phone calls the Pod Tracker via cellphone network (if Pod Tracker doesn't have cell coverage you are SOL). 2nd. The pod tracker starts looking for GPS satellites to determine its location (I suspect initial finding of satellites takes up most of the time). 3rd. The Pod Tracker "calls" your phone back with its location data (again via cellphone network). Over the years I have come to expect inflated battery life promises from wireless devices. but the battery life rating of the Pod Tracker seems refreshingly realistic. The first battery was at 15% after 6 days in most conservative operation mode (locate only). If you use the Safe Zone or Activity The supplied mounting straps are extremely tight but after using a tiny bit of silicone lube it was much easier to fasten. Bella has no issues at all wearing the pod tracker, I doubt any other available brand would fit her little size. I mounted the Pod Tracker to a 1/2" wide Lupine brand collar. The Lupine brand collars are excellent quality and available in a bit wider models than others brands, which made mounting the pod tracker more secure.

Read morewo just climbed over them. Then they would charge into dense brush and woods and disappear for a day. Pod made it possible to track them almost all the time. I could also find generally where they were getting out. I had to change the batteries everyday because I had to use the tracking map feature. As long as the pod was on the dog it worked until one day the pod ripped off one dog. It was secured with zip tie as well as the belt POD provides. It still came off. No idea where it is. I could point to a swath of woods and say “somewhere in all that." The other pod simply stopped working. New battery and reset did not get it working. In short, POD was not tough enough for my dogs. They wore it out. But while it worked, it worked well. The fences are now high enough ( over my head ) to stop these two. They only get out occasionally. POD helped but it was not the ultimate solution.

Hands down the best GPS tracking device for your pets. I have tried several. The Pod Trackers unit is a breath of fresh air from the others on the market. This unit is beautifully ... Read moredesigned, well thought out and attractive. Unbelievably efficient, small, manageable, totally unnoticeable on your pet. The battery lasts for at least 5 days and you're always aware of it's status from the readout inside their beautifully designed Android application. The application is well thought out, and much better designed and easy to navigate for users than others on the market. This is key because you need to be able to get it opened and locate your pet quickly and efficiently. Overall this is just a better designed and more efficient unit than all the others. They have reasonable annual cellular charges only $50.00 annually after the first year and terrific support from the Pod Trackers team. This is the reason I placed my faith in this unit, no regrets and no question what so ever!

4 customer support is top notch.
5 WORKS!
Before we purchased the "Pod Tracker" for our pug puppy, aka PugTracker! I was concerned with the size, being too big, but unlike the other GPS collars that are huge, this GPS pod remains small the size of a wine cork and fits nicely on the collar.
Don't be confused as I was with other tracking devices like "tile" or " trackr " or dime online as they are ONLY Bluetooth any may have a range of only 75-100 feet! The crowd GPS is a joke.
When switched on zone mode your pod last about 3 days, when switched on normal mode which its default is set to it is a full week and with the notification alert and ease of battery swap it takes a simple twist and swap with fully charged.
Because it's real GPS and does connect up to sats and down to your iPhone it does take 1-3 minutes to get a location but it's incrediblely accurate!
Lastly, because it is weather sealed and water proof rain or bath or goes swimming there is no concern!
The only suggestion is that this company should also offer a high quality collar to go with the same build integrity of their POD, I went into 5 pet stores to find the top collar that would be equal.
Very happy and the comfort to know my pet is safe is worth every penny!
