Why this matters
Theft doesn't wait for a convenient time. A tracker with a flat battery can't send alerts, can't report location, and can't help you recover a stolen vehicle.
The 5 warning signs
- The app shows "Last seen" more than 6 hours ago during normal use
- Location updates feel slower or less frequent than usual
- You get a low-battery push notification (don't ignore it)
- The tracker takes longer than usual to reconnect after a trip
- It's been more than 6 weeks since your last charge
Charging takes about 3 hours and the tracker keeps working normally while it's plugged in. Make it a habit — set a recurring reminder every 6 weeks so you're never caught off guard.
