notiOne is a small Bluetooth tracker. It broadcasts a continuous signal that is picked up by phones in the community network. Whether that signal gets picked up depends not only on how many phones with supporting apps are nearby, but also on where you put the tracker. So where should you hide your notiOne tracker?
AVOID METAL HIDING PLACES
If you’re thinking of hiding your notiOne tracker in a metal box or any other metal casing, we strongly advise against it. Metal can heavily dampen the Bluetooth signal emitted by the tracker, so that phones with supporting apps won’t “hear” the notiOne. That’s why, when concealing a notiOne in your car, choose compartments close to the roof, the pocket on the back of a seat or any other spot where the tracker won’t end up “wrapped” in sheet metal.
The safest materials that can surround a notiOne without any worries are wood, glass and synthetic materials such as plastic.
KEEP AWAY FROM WIRELESS DEVICES
The notiOne device uses the Bluetooth standard for wireless communication. This means that other devices that communicate on similar frequencies can interfere with how notiOne works. The most common sources of interference are power cables, fluorescent lamps, microwaves and wireless video cameras.
THE CITY
When protecting the things that matter to you, remember that notiOne doesn’t work well in sparsely populated areas. If your unruly four-legged runaway heads off on a solo trip through the woods or a meadow, the chances of the signal being picked up drop. Why? Because there are no receivers, i.e. people with supporting apps on their phones. notiOne is perfect for tracking down a dog in the urban jungle or locating a cat’s hiding places in your flat, but we don’t recommend it for protecting farm dogs, horses or outdoor cats.
