PagerTag for Android
Working ok with Android 5.0; however upgraded to 6.0.1 and now doesn't even pair let alone work, alas!
It doesn't work one day like one before or after. Very unstable.
Running lollipop 5.0 and it works perfectly. Can make the Bluetooth fob I bought from Amazon bleep to find my keys or use the fob to make me phone ring and find my phone depending on which one is lost. Awesome invention better than those horrible whistle ones that existed in the 90's
Even if I'm on top of the thing, it says not connected, it has the habit of disconnecting other devices
Maybe improve design of interface to the tag on the app.

I have had the pager tag for 48 hrs from new, bought on Amazon. The battery has already drained to zero on the pager tag. The app is infuriating. It keeps scanning constantly for additional tags. It has an incredibly annoying 'lost tag connection' warning, which when you dismiss it, promptly returns within seconds. On top of this, the connection between the phone and the pager is constantly lost, even though I've kept them in the same pocket for the last 48 hours. Overall, needs much improvement.
Returned it after 12hrs use- 7 of which I'd set it to 'overnight' mode and the rest it was like a neurotic guard dog, going off at the merest hint that keys & phone were more than 6" apart.. Bluetooth link in the fob was just not reliable enough.
Bidirectional alarms and remote phone control has big potential, maybe needs some more Google maps integration as it apparently stores last seen location but I can't see how to view it like Google device manager, recommend putting on your car keys if you are anything like our family on a Monday morning trying to herd the kids out and get to work, well done Beets, keep developing the app. Does not seem device specific and worked without issue on my HTC one android 5.
Have to keep Bluetooth on constantly or reset both sides to keep connected. Returning it
Very disappointing. Will update if the provider responds with a fix but this is not compatible with the S5 despite the comment on the website.
Battery showed 75% loss in one day. Randomly beeped, which was very distracting at work. Good idea. Poorly designed app.
Update: seems my s4 mini is not on their list of compatible handsets so probably unfair to mark down in my previous review. Just tried the iPhone application version though and it is much, much better than the android version, e.g. you can set regions and presence rules for regions too.
There are other devices then Samsung and iPhone. Android has over 80% market share world wide. Samsung is just a piece of that. Why not support Motorola, HTC, etc...

Why on earth does an app like this need permission to read your address book, intercept phone calls and use the camera? Either a scam or written by an incompetent developer.
