Review on Spectrum Smart GPS Tracker - Affordable at $9.95/Month - Mini ๐Ÿš— Real-time - Ideal for Vehicle Tracking, Kid & Elderly Safety, and Motorcycle Security by Chad Carter

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The tracker I use

OK, tried all known units on Revain. There is Amcrest which I really like, it has a great user interface but they have an expensive monthly service. There's AmericaLoc, whose UI is a bit dated, but they're very good, although their monthly service is quite expensive (at least they add up a few months, etc. if you're paying annually). And then there is the Vyncs OBD tracker. No comments here, you can read my review and I'll leave it at that (tip: thumbs down!) However, I'll end up sticking with this tracker. Of course I had some growing issues (some of which are mentioned in the reviews) but what I found surprising was that the manufacturer worked with me for the whole couple of weeks to solve each of them. I complained about the service, they worked hard to fix the problem. I was disappointed with the UI elements, both on the website and in the Android and IOS apps, and they fixed that too. I had a distinct feeling that they wanted to fix things (unlike my previous experience where the manufacturer kept trolling me for leaving them a negative review). Weeks in the Middle East I have no problem giving this tracker 5 stars. I had nothing but pleasant and polite communication with the support team. I'm going far. Bravo to the Spectrum Tracking team for their dedication to customer service. This is a young company trying to do business in a very competitive environment. It's not easy, but I'm sure they will keep improving both their services and their apps over time. I hope to see some updates in the future regarding vehicle information where I can see battery status, fuel level etc. The OBD tracker should be able to do this. However, since I didn't buy the tracker for this, I have no expectations in this regard. This tracker works across national borders and that's enough for me.
