I had to FedEx and expensive instrument from the Boston area to Charlotte, NC. I put a Nano 7 in the instrument case and was able to track the progress of the shipment and confirm that it would be at my destination when I arrived.

Gets the job done at a reasonable price.

Too unreliable for my needs

Tracker has too many lapses in reporting location. Started out fine for the first week or so, then gradually outages in reporting location. Outages that started out lasting 5 minutes and got progressively worse. The last outage just occured and so far is in excess of an hour. It is in a major metropolitan area with excellent cell phone coverage and placed on the vehicle properly. These outages just won't do for my needs. Also the extended battery is close to half discharged after only 23 days which is disappointing. I used another service a year ago or so and had none of these issues.

Great Product at a reasonable price!

I love this tracker! I am not good with technology but even I set it up and put it on my daughter’s car by myself. It even told me when she was speeding, naughty new driver! Now I will know where she is at all times! Everyone should get one for their teenage drivers or for a suspicious acting husbam, ha ha!

Can’t beat the price.

This thing is so cute and solid, and it just works. I can track stuff just like in the movies, tho I mostly just use it when my daughter goes camping. Easily lasts a weekend or even longer for that. She just keeps it in her backpack. Love this peace of mind.

Best-value Combo

The nano is great, but the magnetic case makes it so much more versatile. I used it for my car, but then also was able to switch it to my boat when I rented my boat. most people don't do that probably, but I think it could track anything with metal to attach it to.

Must buy a monthly plan to see if it works

The marketing material makes it look like you can put it anywhere on a vehicle. Apparently not under the hood or near the trunk.In my case, a golf cart. No way to check to see if it works without buying a monthly plan starting at $24.99/month (not $25.00 lol). Also the magnetic case isn't included.

I keep sending them back fo replacement and receive another one with the same issues... charge them at 100% and put it vehicle after 12hours of vehicle not moving it drops to 80% by end of day now down to less than 50%... all three units same result also had tracking time changed to 10 minutes and same result.... poor quality.....

Short battery life but good gps

I have now bought 3 within weeks of each other due to losing the first one, and the second one not holding battery. Now, the third one also is not holding battery. It goes from 100% to 5% in a day. Although the first device lasted weeks without charging.

Angelino92 - 08/04/2020

Great product, with some issues

The product works great, although some issues may arise. One problem I’ve had is that it doesn’t always properly indicate vehicle location, especially when parked, a problem that may be more related to lack of cell towers. Also, the battery seems to drain more in certain locations than others. Once again, an issue probably related to the devices constant attempt to connect to a cell tower. Also, the devices slow rate of charge is kind of sad. 5 hours plus.

Company Response

Thanks for the feedback! GPS trackers rely on satellites and cellular connections. They are accurate to within three meters, allowing users to have fairly accurate location data. While operating in low-signal areas can negatively affect your results, GPS tracking technology has evolved to ensure stronger signals and greater accuracy. Our tech team can check your devices and provide tips in using your GPS. Our phone number, live chat, and email assistance are available at https://www.brickhousesecurity.com/support/.

Mano 7 is MUCH LARGER than advertised

The website advertises this product as 3"x1"x.4". In reality, it is much larger than that, and actually is LARGER than the previous Nanos. This is highly misleading and was the primary reason I bought 3 of them.

Company Response

Hello,

We're sorry if you feel that way. While the Spark Nano 7 is slightly bigger than its predecessors, the dimension 3.0" x 1.58" x 1.0" on our website is accurate. We tried to get in touch with you to offer further help, but as we have not heard back, we hope this means that you were able to get any issue resolved by our Support team. Please feel free to contact us if you need further help.

Browser based interface has broken components and is non-intuitive

I have version 7.0. One would think that the browser based user experience (UX) would be at a much higher level and EVERY option clicked would actually work without producing an error. The street view doesn't work. The zoom level on the platforms Google map prohibits 15 zoom levels (you can only zoom to a 1-mile viewport on a standard 1080p monitor). The UX is simply awful. Completely non-intuitive. Don’t get me started on the Android mobile app. It’s HORRIBLE! I used the web app 8 years ago. It's nearly the same. It sucked then and it sucks now. Tech support takes 3 times to answer basic questions. With the longevity that this company has, it must be broke to not be able to afford better software and better service. Hey CEO, raise your prices so you can hire better software developers and provide better service! We don’t want cheap, we want solid, good software and good support. The hardware seems good enough, that I’d pay nearly double for it in order to have better software, but the most import thing to solve is the crappy zoom level limits on your Google map.

Battery life is not what they say

I have to retrieve the device every 2-3 days and recharge it. This is time out of the vehicle for charging so you're not tracking and the increase chance of having your son catch you going into the car to stash it. The product says " The Spark Nano's fully rechargeable battery can run for up to two weeks or more under normal use (~1 hour a day)" But there's no way I could come close to that and I'm "On demand" tracking" The device is not getting pinged every 2 min; maybe 25 requests a day. I was sent a new device but still have the same problem. It's not my job to troubleshoot their products but it is now my problem. It seems when the vehicle is in the garage and has no reception, it blows through the battery. Maybe it just doesn't know to go to sleep without a connection; I'm not sure but I'm unhappy with this.

Company Response

Hello,

We're sorry for the negative experience. We tried to get in touch to offer assistance but since you do not need further help as of the moment we hope to hear from you in the future so we can have one of our programmers check the data of your device for us to analyze the cause of the issue. We would love the opportunity to help. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

It works but the location/address is not exact. Planning to return.

Company Response

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback and we sincerely apologize for the frustration and inconvenience. The system is set up so that at any given time at least four satellites are within the view of any point on the planet. Usually, there will be more. The simple answer is that the more satellites your tracker can “see,” the more accurate its position will be. As the number of satellites in view changes, so will your tracker’s accuracy. If we can be of any help, please don't hesitate to reach us anytime.

Why Trust Verified Reviews?

Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.

Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.

As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:

Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.

Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.

So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
