This makes all the difference
The Spotter uses GPS to determine the location, which is sent to our online software via the built-in SIM card (GPRS). You then log in online to view the location data.
If you are using a GPS tracker for dementia, place it in the wearer’s coat, bag or walking frame. If you opt for a GPS watch, fasten the Spotter around the wrist. You can then view locations and other information online and via the Spotter smartphone app. The location is displayed on a map.
The Spotter GPS tracker works throughout Europe, which is not the case with all GPS trackers. This means the Spotter can also be used abroad. We recommend using the Spotter outdoors. Indoors, the signal may be weaker, which can affect the accuracy of the location tracking.
The Spotter GPS tracker is equipped with a motion sensor that detects the difference between movement and stillness. When the device is in motion, a location is sent every 60 seconds, which you can view immediately online via your account or the Spotter app. When the Spotter GPS tracker is not in motion, the location is sent every 30 minutes. You can view all locations for up to 7 days; after this period, the data is deleted.
That’s right, the Spotter GPS tracker and the Spotter GPS watch work subscription-free. You can choose from prepaid credit packages of 3, 6 or 12 months. You can use the Spotter within this period, after which the service will stop. This means you can put the Spotter away for a while and then use it again by topping up your credit. No use means no charges.
The Spotter GPS tracker costs a one-off fee of €99.95, including a prepaid SIM card. It then operates using prepaid credit. Read more about prepaid credit here.
You can set up different zones on the GPS tracker. These are virtual circles or zones around a specific area, such as a home address, a park or a care home. You create a zone, and as soon as the Spotter enters or leaves the zone, you will receive a notification.
The Spotter GPS tracker is equipped with an SOS button. If the person wearing the Spotter presses this button, you will immediately receive a push notification on your smartphone, along with their location. You can then take action or call them via the Spotter.
When you switch on the Spotter, you will hear a short beep. After that, you won’t hear any more sounds, except when someone calls the Spotter, in which case it will ring.
The Spotter GPS tracker for dementia is equipped with a handy call function. This allows you to call the Spotter and speak to the wearer. It is worth noting that you can call the GPS tracker, but not make calls from it.
You can use the Spotter app, which is available to download for free from the App Store for iOS and the Google Play Store for Android. Once you have received your Spotter, simply add it to the app and you’re ready to start using the GPS tracker.
The locations are stored for 7 days and can be viewed via the Spotter software and app.
The battery life is up to 5 days, with an average of 3 days.
The warranty period is 24 months. Should you experience any issues with the Spotter, our support team will first attempt to resolve the problem remotely. If this proves impossible, you may return the Spotter and, if necessary, receive a replacement.
Unfortunately, not all GPS trackers are secure, as has been reported in the media on several occasions. Fortunately, Spotter’s products are completely safe to use and user privacy is also guaranteed. Read on to find out how we ensure this.
The Spotter GPS tracker uses GPS (satellites) and GPRS (integrated SIM card). This means the Spotter always has coverage throughout Europe. So wherever the Spotter is, you can view its location online via your smartphone or PC.

Family members can use the Spotter app on their smartphone to track the location of a loved one with dementia, set up zones and receive alerts if they stray from them.
