Lost your car and can’t remember where you parked? It happens to the best of us: wandering aimlessly through parking lots, clicking the panic button on your key chain to get your headlights to illuminate.
You don’t need a pricey radio transponder to keep tabs on your car. Uplinking your wheels to the great eye in the sky without breaking the bank is easier than you think.
Standalone GPS and radio triangulation units can cost hundreds. And that’s not counting the installation, activation fees, and monthly fees associated with whatever service you do choose. For most of us, it’s overkill. The good news is that some of life’s biggest problems seem to be disappearing because of new technology. If you frequently forget where you parked your car, there is a tiny gadget and app that could be what you’re looking for.
What is it about?
It's about TrackR, a small and discreet device the size of a coin that is revolutionizing the market.
But how does it work?
Very easy! It will take less than five minutes to put it to work. You simply pair it with your smartphone and download the free application which will allow you to locate it anytime. Once this is done, you simply have to put it on your key chain, in your wallet or in any object you want to locate. In this case you just have to hide it in your car.
Now you just open the application on your smartphone and you can easily see the position of your TrackR on the map. If you lose your car or any other item, simply select “find device” and you’ll get the coordinates of the new location.

Simply attach it to anything you consider important or easy to lose, link it to your Smartphone (with the Trackr application) and you will find what you lost, it’s that easy!
