My son lives on a farm in a remote area. I read all the reviews online before I bought this product. Unfortunately our experience does not match any of the ones mentioned online. We tried three different SIM cards; tried to link to WIFI and then tried to see if it works in an urban area (Johannesburg). In all cases, the tracker picks up the nearest cell phone tower - that means 7 kms away from the farm, and 3 kms away from our house in Jhb. Needless to say, if you want to keep track of the dog, you would have to be prepared to search for an area of 7km radius. So in my view, it is a cell phone signal tracker at best. Coincidentally all our other GPS devices do work in both locations. You would be better off with an apple airtag which works far more efficiently at a much lower price tag. And by the way - this tracker does not count the steps either. When I tried to return it, I got thrown with the Consumer Protection Act and the fact that I bought the 'cheapest' product (i bought the one for R1899 and not the one in excess of R2000 - thank goodness I did not). I probably would have not minded had they just acknowledged the fact that the product is defective but that was never the case - only that I live on a hill and therefore that the device picks up the cell phone tower etc etc. At least Jenna now walks around with a fancy tag around her neck looking very dapper.
