2023-12-28 | Nick Hislop | Terrible! Contained a paywall for "verification", shortly after entering my credit card information an unauthorized charge was made against my credit card, resulting in my credit card being locked by my issuer. This may have been nothing more than coincidence, in any case I fail to understand why credit card information should be anywhere near a free system utility; but I leave it up to the reader to decide whether or not to entrust payment info to an app like this. | |
2023-11-25 | Renee Fairkitty | My Fitbit HR had fallen off my wrist without me knowing until much later. Tried a couple of other apps that didn't work at all! One was so full of ads and was hard to understand! This ap located my fitbit very quickly! It listed the name of all devices within range. When it said Fitbit HR and the bar next to it was all green, I knew I was right on it! My fit it was located within minutes! Thank you!! | |
2023-02-03 | LaQuesha “Sweetz” B | I really do not post anything for reviews but I had to for this one. I had been looking for my fitbit everywhere and could not find it. Installed this app and started the search and seen the bar was high, walked in my room it disappeared, came back ro the living room it appeared again. (I swear I was using it like a metal detector 🤣) I found my fitbit in less than 3 mins. This was such a huge help and it worked. Thanks | |
2022-09-30 | Sam C | This actually worked! Need patience! I used to find my FitBit Sense watch. You have to allow the bluetooth option on your phone to locate to scan the devices. It takes a few minutes for your device to appear on the list. Once it appears, remove and hide all the other devices you don't want to see. I tapped on my device " Sense" and went around the house and waiting 30 seconds in each spot to which area gave a stronger signal. The blue bar went higher when I got closer and I found it! Thank you | |
2022-08-11 | Monica Williams | I almost never give reviews unless it's a great product/service. I know this app can use some improvements, but it DOES the work it's meant to do. If you can see your item displayed on the screen, there will be a bar next to it that indicates if you are far or close. The fuller the bar the closer the object. | |
2022-04-13 | Michael Manahan | OMG! It actually worked! I lost my fitbit in a grocery store, when the band separated from the watch. I knew from the time of the last synch that it must be in that store, but, nobody had turned it in. I downloaded this app and returned to the store. The instant that I hit "scan" my fitbit appeared in the list of found devices and, following the strength of the signal, I found my watch on a shelf in less than 5 minutes!! I'm usually pretty skeptical but this was amazing & saved me $120! | |
2021-04-10 | Erin Doran | Other than finding multiple unnamed devices, this app did almost nothing. I downloaded it to try and find my Fitbit, but I was unable to tell which device it might be. While the -dbs would sometimes disappear, other times move up or down a point, I could not draw any conclusions (even with a known device) about the proximity of a bluetooth device. Perhaps it could be a little more user friendly, but I found my Fitbit out of sheer luck and quickly uninstalled this waste. | |
2020-11-24 | Mike - | Found my FitBit within minutes. Uninstall your FitBit app, then use this app and your watch should pop up in the list of Bluetooth devices. When the blue bar fills up, you're getting closer. Mine wasn't a full blue bar and the watch was still inches away so keep that in mind. Thank you very much for this useful app, much appreciated. I'm still curious at the low rating, as this was the only app to help locate my watch flawlessly. | |
2020-10-16 | Monique | I lost my Charge 4 fitbit after taking it off to wash dishes. I tried 3 other apps to no avail. I'm not sure if it registered because they did not identify the bluetooth device. So I uninstalled them and installed this one. The Charge 4 name showed up and I was able to find it within 5 minutes. The Fitbit company recommends using this one to find your devices, and it did the trick. Thanks a bunch! | |
2020-05-22 | Stihl 7 | Worked GREAT for me. I managed to lose a several hundred dollar item in a 1/2 square mile of terrain with mixed trees, rocks, tall native grass. I downloaded this app and went out looking without much hope. Behold! After about 20 minutes of walking in the general area I had passed, the item popped up on my phone screen and from then on, it was a case of hot/cold/hot/cold until I finally got on the right track. And...Voila! The item (very small) was right at my feet! Very thankful and appreciative! |
