Offering a durable and waterproof tracker, Fynd utilizes both Bluetooth and 4G LTE coverage for nationwide tracking of pets, children, and valuable objects.
Please read on for more about this compact tracker with unlimited range.
What is Fynd?
Other Bluetooth trackers are often confined to a limited range of distance so that they stop connecting to smart devices as soon as they exit that range. Similarly, other trackers are not waterproof, rechargeable, or compatible with GPS services.
Those with 3G capabilities are often hindered by a long network connection, delaying information and using up a lot of battery power.
The key feature of Fynd is 4G LTE coverage from Sprint so that it can be used nationwide, with plans to expand internationally. With a waterproof design and rechargeable batteries for continued use, Fynd allows consumers to track anything including family members, pets, or valuable items.
How Does This App Work?
Simply download the Fynd App and then attach a Fynd Device to a pet, child, or valuable item for real-time tracking.
Features of Fynd
Other Products:
Made with flexible, comfortable material, the Fynd Dog Collar is completely customizable for any size of dog. Because the Fynd Device is so compact, it is held safely and securely on the collar, allowing owners to know where their dog is at all times. Similarly, the Children’s Bracelet is designed for comfortable use for parents to keep their kids safe.
Activity Monitor:
Even from a distance, stats are directly sent to one’s smartphone or device for speed, temperature, and activity. This is particularly useful for pets, to insure they are getting sufficient exercise and staying at a comfortable temperature, and children, to know they are safe.
Carabiner:
Essential for attaching Fynd to valuable items, the carabiner keeps the device secure so that expensive gear, cameras, luggage, or other valuables are not lost.
Battery Life:
While each device comes with a charging cable, Fynd has an expected 60-day battery life over Bluetooth and a 4-day life when using 4G LTE.
Fynd App:
Accurate within 10 feet and 1.28 seconds, the Fynd App communicates with the Fynd Device so that people, pets, and things are tracked as closely as possible, regardless of location. The App allows users to track multiple devices or for one device to be tracked by multiple users.
30 Days of Free Service:
Currently 4G LTE coverage is limited to the US but is expected to expand. The service plan is priced at $2.99 per month.
