MagTag Global Micro Tracker

I bought 2 of these for our cars and they do not work as I expected. Quoted from their website: “MagTag® V4.0 is built for recovery — not just finding items nearby. Designed for iPhone users, it uses Apple’s Find My network to locate vehicles, equipment, and valuable assets anywhere they travel, with secure location updates relayed by nearby Apple… Read more
devices worldwide.” However, they’re most times lagging up to 4 hours before it updates. I find this lag to be hopeless, especially if I had a car stolen, not sure how and I quote “built for recovery” would help with such a long lag. With how their website is worded and I quote from their website again “Compact, discreet, and easy to deploy, MagTag® is made for assets that don’t stay close — where recovery actually matters” This wording made me believe that if my car was stolen, I would be able to get a quick recovery however, with a up to 4 hour lag, pretty sure I wouldn’t be getting my car back if it was stolen. I have spent almost 2 weeks troubleshooting, uninstalling them on Find My and reinstalling them, placing the items in the locations recommended on their website. This is not the product I believed it to be by the wording on their website.
I now have seven of these Magtags I even put them in my luggage when I flew on a recent trip Queensland tracked my luggage all the way I even have one in my covered in motorbike trailer fantastic units Show details · 1
Follow-up · The battery life depends on which batteries you buy I choose good quality ones which are lasting about 4 to 5 months they are very easy to attach with the waterproof case the setup is very easy takes about 1 minute
Ordered a Magtag, and money was taken from my account. Tag never arrived. I forgot about it (like as if there's NOTHING going on in our lives except waiting by the letterbox for an imitation Airtag). I contacted support, but they said I remembered too late. Their T&C's say once Australia Post have it, it's not Magtag's problem. You have 90 days… Read more
to raise the issue (with Australia Post because Magtag have then washed their hands of their sale), then it's fornicate you.
I would NOT RECOMMEND dealing with these people. I hope their chickens turn into emus and kick their dunny door down.
Order was shipped, tracked and delivered by Aust Post.… Read more (+1 reply)

Love my mag tag but I love my dog even more . So I have it on my dogs collar in a special mag tag waterproof case . It’s very very accurate and I always know where my dog and best friend is absolutely love it. Show details
Stopped working after 1 month. I brought 3. One stopped working tried changing battery ( very difficult ). Back cover broke in half very thin plastic. Show details
I have Magtag trackers in both of my cars and my Harley and Dog they give some peace of mind in this crime riddled state of VIC They work reliably with good battery life Show details
Excellent value and great performer. My dogs are fairly small but the Magtag and collar case are a great size still. Show details
I was after something to keep track of our vehicle, we had just experienced a anxious moment when we had parked our car in an area we were not familiar with and it took over an hour to find it. Very pleased with the ease of the store to find what we wanted and the products lived up to our expectations, well done Mag Tag. Show details
The product has performed as stated and as expected without fault. Very happy with this purchase. Show details
Very happy with my MagTag tracker, have put one on our caravan and love it. My son can track us when on holidays and also we were in a town not familiar with and used it to get back to our van. Great product Show details
I have a Magtag with key tag and have found it useful for finding my car keys when I misplace them. There is also an alert on my phone if I leave the keys behind somewhere . One minor issue is that when I know that the keys are nearby and select play sound it is a little bit too quiet for my liking. I have been very pleased with the product. Show details
I purchased 5 tags and have them in all my vehicles and also purchased the waterproof dog collar case as it is very robust and water proof and have installed that one on my motor bike. The quality of the tags is extremely high and I will be purchasing more for my family vehicles. Thanks Darren Show details

I’ve been using MagTag trackers for close to two months and have been very happy with them. I purchased four trackers in total — two for vehicles and two for car keys and caravan keys — along with two dog collar cases and two key cases. The tracking has been accurate and reliable in day-to-day use. The buzzer is a little faint for me, but it has… Read more
still been helpful in locating keys when needed. Overall, the trackers have performed as expected. I initially considered using the trackers on small dogs, but they are a little large for that purpose. That said, they are smaller than many other trackers available, and the size seems to be a reasonable balance with battery life. The online store was easy to navigate, and it was straightforward to find both the trackers and the accessories. The range of products available suited my needs, and the quality of the trackers and cases met my expectations. Overall, I’m very satisfied with the product and would be happy to purchase additional MagTag trackers in the future.
We are loving the MagTags. Not only do they provide a sense of security in this day and age, the setup is swift and easy, with the irresistable price! The waterproof tag holder is also made of high quality material. There’s a reason why the new MagTags are sold out so Quickly upon release. Show details
Easy to use, connects the same as apple air tags. I recently purchased the magtag heavy duty cabled case to attach to my kids scooters - the cable was mm too short to fit around where I wanted it to go, but found an alternative and we are very happy. Show details
Mag tag is so accurate and will alert you when you are away from the tag . I buy 4 magtags and i use it for my car and luggages Show details
I have been very happy with the Magtag trackers. Works well in Australia and now in Europe. Show details
MagTag® Global PRO Tracker P2.1 Don’t hold battery charge for a month. Prior to buying this it says it can last up to 6months on 1 charge. I emailed this company last 28/11/2025 to give them a chance to rectify the issue but no answer till now. The other products might be working ok but this doesn’t last. Show details

The MagTag failed within one week of use. I contacted the supplier multiple times and was eventually advised that a replacement would be sent; however, it was never received. Based on this experience, I would recommend avoiding this business and instead purchasing a genuine Apple product for reliability.
Follow-up · Customer service was very poor. It was brand new so it should’ve been charged. I have 1 still working as I brought 2
I have been using the MagTag locator with my Royal Enfield Classic 500 and it has proven to be a very practical piece of kit. Setup with iOS was straightforward. The device paired quickly through Apple’s Find My network and required very little… Read more
configuration. Within minutes it was visible on my iPhone and reporting its location reliably. Anyone familiar with Apple’s ecosystem will find the process intuitive.
I mounted the MagTag discreetly on my Royal Enfield Classic 500 as a basic tracking solution. Since installing it, the locator has provided accurate location updates and dependable connectivity through the Find My network. For a motorcycle that is often parked in public places or left for extended periods, the added ability to check its location at any time provides real peace of mind.
The MagTag itself is compact, lightweight, and easy to conceal on a motorcycle without affecting the bike’s appearance. Battery life appears solid and the device has remained consistently responsive.
Overall, the MagTag is a simple and effective tracking option for anyone already using an iPhone. If you want a low effort way to keep tabs on your motorcycle without installing a complex GPS system, it does the job well.
Follow-up · I’ve now had more time with this product and my experience has remained consistently positive. It has performed exactly as expected with no issues or reliability concerns. There has been no noticeable impact on my bike’s performance. Everything runs smoothly and as intended. The device has handled normal riding conditions well, including exposure… Read more
I have several of these Trackers which I use successfully in several ways: I have one in each of our cars in case they are stolen but on a daily basis I use them to locate the cars in car parks when I forget where I parked them and I also check the… Read more
cars when I am away to confirm that they have not been stolen from our carport; I have them in our suitcases when we are travelling and they have worked effectively in Australia and overseas; I have given one to my son to fit to his bicycle at Uni in case it is stolen; and, finally, I occasionally use them on our person to locate each other when shopping in large shopping malls overseas. I can recommend them for all those uses and I am confident they will be effective for any other use that may emerge.
Follow-up · Setting them up is easy: using the QR code takes you to theirs web site instructions. Since setting them up with new batteries some months ago they are still running strongly.

Positive reviews
A quick review to say how impressed I am with the MagTag product. Bought 4 before we went overseas and attached them to bags and document holders. Worked exceptionally well and as advertised through various countries. Knew our bags were on the aircraft and ship as well. Made contact with the business on our return. Excellent customer service.
We purchased MagTag for a variety of uses, car tracking and suitcase travel in particular. Our daughter travelled all the way to India and we were able to track her luggage from Australia very easily. We have put them in our car too. Once the MagTag is setup they all seem to be working fine. We had a few technical setup issues where we put it… Read more
down to placing MagTag into case backwards that inadvertently turned tracker switch off. Instructions could be 5% better. After sorting out our technical issues, that were resolved without the need to contact the support help, we have had no problems. We are happy that the MagTag Tracker works as described.
This is fantastic, the exact simplified product that fits it’s purpose.. I feel relaxed leaving my project car at home knowing it’s safe while I spend my days at work a week at a time.. Show details

I purchased five of these for all my cars and they show up clearly in the Find My app. I really like that each tracker can be personalised. Setup was straightforward, and after three months of use I’ve had no issues at all. One improvement that… Read more
would make these even better would be a notification when the tracker (and car) moves, rather than only receiving an alert when the tracker is left behind with my phone.
Follow-up · Had an issue where I have two cars parked next to each other but showing very different locations in a 2 to 3km radius. Also it took some days for one of those trackers to relocate to the new location where I have the cars stored.
Sadly not the unit needed to track my cat. She was happy to wear it as part of her collar, but the very 'tiny' sound it makes, is very difficult to hear unless actually holding the MagTag in ones hand. But, it was the fact that the tracker really… Read more
only gives you a general location, which may be handy for car or caravans (as they are easier to see from a distance) than a pet. I tried to contact Magtag directly but note that there is no way of contacting them through their 'support' link on their website :(; and the original Order confirmation states " REPLIES TO THIS EMAIL ARE NOT MONITORED" - would have been a red flag from the start - but you don't receive that till you have paid!
Follow-up · Worse than the lousy product is the even lousier after sales contact or should I say non exisitent after sales contact?
Bought 4 of them to test them out and see how they go. I have to say I am not very happy with the product, as it does not show the location for hours, if not most of the day. I see the website promotes the product, saying it will work based on iphone find my app and nearby users. The cars have parked in very large foot traffic areas in shopping… Read more
centers and hospitals with no updates of there location. I would not be recommending the MagTag products to anyone and would advise looking for another product that works.

We received our Magtags V3.0 promptly and the setup process was straightforward. We have placed them in our caravan and towing vehicle. The concept is good, and gives us peace of mind. I would have waited and purchased the V4.0 if I had been aware they were imminent, however that is not the fault of the company. Show details
The MagTag arrived promptly, it was easy to install and worked exactly as described. The quality of the device was excellent. I feel very sure that the equipment I placed them on will be fast to find if ever stolen or misplaced. Thank you MagTag it’s a great solution. Show details
