LBT PocketFinder personal GPS locator price range: $129.95
- Reviewed by: Antuan Goodwin
- Reviewed on: 12/15/2011
The good: The LBT PocketFinder is extremely easy to use, requiring little to no interaction by the wearer. The included gel cases and clip are attractive without drawing attention to the device's purpose. Web and iOS apps give users access to up to 60 days of location history and unlimited location requests.
The bad: Annual operating costs are higher than those of competing devices.
The bottom line: The PocketFinder is the simplest to use of the personal GPS locators that we've tested, requiring no interaction from the user on a day-to-day basis, but you'll pay a bit more in the long run for that.

Did not work for me. Never correct and short battery.
by ConsumerSatisfaction on March 19, 2013
Pros: I liked the idea that you were suppose to be able to see your location in relation to the device.
Cons: I tried to use it many times and spent a lot of time calling tech support. Nice people but never seem to resolve my problems. The device would show an old location. Went through all the steps again and again but could never find my child.
Summary: Would not bother with this device. I have used find my iphone which works much better. Only wish find my I phone would show where you are in relation to ...

Summary: Would not bother with this device. I have used find my iphone which works much better. Only wish find my I phone would show where you are in relation to the device. Of course the return policy is only 15-30 days before your trial period is up. Also has a short battery life depending on the settings. Oh Well. I am going to try and get rid of mine on Cragslist LA.

The best there is.
by MikeD187 on January 18, 2013
Pros: Simply the best child tracking device made. Take the time to learn how to use it and you will never regret it. I've tried so many devices for my autistic son and this is the only one that truly works. I love this product.
Cons: None if one is to takes the time to learn how to use it. When I see that someone isn't happy with it, I already know they didn't take the time to learn the technology. These people are wonderful with great tech support.
Summary: I find it sad when I see that someone doesn't like this device because I've tried just about every device out there at great expense for my autistic ...

Summary: I find it sad when I see that someone doesn't like this device because I've tried just about every device out there at great expense for my autistic son and this is the only one that really works. And this isn't even near being the most expensive. If people take the time to learn how to use this product and listen closely to their excellent tech support, they will love and trust this awesome product.

Pros: The iPhone App is easy and has all the features I would want.
No contracts.
