Why we tested it
We tested the Tack GPS Plus because it addresses the critical gap between standard Bluetooth tags and complex, power-hungry cellular trackers. While most trackers rely on short-range signals or require frequent charging, this device utilizes Hybrid Tracking Technology—combining GPS, Wi-Fi, and cellular IoT—to provide global coverage. What caught our attention is the inclusion of an Indoor Elevation Finder, a rare feature that identifies which floor a person or asset is on within a building. By offering a 30-day battery life and global roaming capabilities, it stands out as a robust, set-and-forget solution for monitoring seniors, pets, and high-value assets without the limitations of proximity-based tracking.
Who it's for
This tracker is ideal for caregivers monitoring elderly relatives, pet owners needing reliable outdoor range, and travelers securing luggage across international borders. It is particularly valuable for those who need to locate items inside multi-story buildings where standard GPS often fails. However, users looking for a simple, one-time purchase without ongoing subscription costs should look elsewhere, as this device requires a service plan to maintain its cellular connectivity and app-based tracking features.
Real-world performance
In real-world scenarios, the Tack GPS Plus performs reliably by intelligently switching between GPS, Wi-Fi, and cellular networks. Outdoors, users report consistent tracking within a 3-5 meter range. The standout performance metric is its indoor capability; by leveraging Wi-Fi positioning and elevation data, it successfully narrows down locations in high-rise environments where traditional GPS signals are blocked. The OurSphere app provides a clear interface for managing zone alerts and SOS triggers. While the device is not as instantaneous as a direct Bluetooth connection, the trade-off is a massive increase in range and autonomy. Users appreciate the AI-powered movement detection, which effectively preserves battery life, allowing the device to last for weeks rather than days, making it a dependable tool for long-term monitoring.
