Great addition to CarLock!

This is an essential addition to your CarLock device. Makes using the app even easier and lets me stop worrying about status notifications. Be sure to add this if you're buying CarLock - the price makes this a must have.

Pros
  • High test scores for support and durability
Cons
  • Hard to say

all the better for the car lock

is a godsend for the car lock security system. I like that I can walk without turning off the alarm clock. I always forgot and started the car remotely and the alarm went off. Now it detects me about 15 feet away and turns it off.

Pros
  • great design
Cons
  • poorly thought out

Waste of money for GPS tracker

Absolutely awful. When I walk around the house with my phone, the door buzzes constantly and disables/enables CarLock. My house is not small, it shouldn't do this. Quite often when I get in the car to leave, Tag CarLock never turns off and it beeps. The tag is on my dashboard about 10 inches from my phone. I also noticed that when I'm at work and the tagged car is at home, the device never turns on. I wouldn't waste your money on this label.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Mostly OK, but...

Works about 30% of the time.

The Carlock is actually quite useful and I'm happy with it. The tag is useless. This works for a few rides and then not for a few more. I have a tag on the side of my driver's door and it's no more than 30 inches from my phone, and yet the Carlock app doesn't recognize the tag and raises an alarm almost every time I drive. I guess I'll have to unplug the phone and turn it off manually. Maybe in a year they'll have an application for the Apple Watch, but for now, well.

Pros
  • The best in its niche
Cons
  • The cable is shorter than other picks

Does not work reliably, therefore unusable. It's a shame because it's a great idea.

I gave two stars instead of the one star I usually get for something I need to return because it just doesn't work because the idea is great. Set the app to sound an alarm if the car vibrates or starts normally, but if your phone is nearby WiFi will connect and show it's you, so no alarm will be sent. Great idea! If only it really worked. During my testing, I was able to launch the app and it reliably indicated whether my phone was nearby or not when I checked on the app screen. Despite this…

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Weight
