Watch - perfect for ensuring safety of my mother – I purchased the watch to ensure the safety of my elderly mother. It messages me if it seems she has a fall. If the watch has a sudden movement. It's been brilliant. The service is also very good. Supportive staff very helpful and make it easy to setup. Show details · 1
Unreliable, not worth it – Bouth the Nuttag Focus after misplacing my car keys etc. Cost me $250 for new key. Kept anoying me by the phone and key saying lost if in different rooms. Thenit would stop working and have to reset phone permissions. Had to find the tag once when it fell off the key ring. On Friday I dropped my meys in a puddle, the key fob split. Put it back… Read more
together and loticed that the Nuttag had split. Could not find the missing part with the electronics. checked the Nut App and found, there had been no communication for 27 days.
Tag lost and broken after 4 months, useless software, do not waste your money.
Stole my money – It was faulty and I returned the product. I've sent so many emails and I still have not got a refund. I sent the dog tracker back too and they said it was received and agreed it was faulty...and then nothing.... I would like my $252 back. Thanks. Show details

Amazing product of highest quality & an improved App – These guys have produced what I think is a very good, small compact GPS tracking system. In this case I needed it for my elderly mother to keep track on her in case we cant contact her, but can easily be used for kids or adults that you want to track. The setup was a little difficult trying to understand which app to download, why it was not set… Read more
up with the correct location when switched on, but the team from Nuttag were extremely helpful.
This device and app has so much to offer and I am assuming that their recent changes to the app and their portal has greatly improved the quality of this product. In any major upgrade there is always going to be some teething problems so you want to know that the company is there to help. And then are.
If you are after A GPS tracking device that can do more than Apples Find Friends, then I highly recommend the Nuttag GPS. You can even make a call to that tiny device. Yes there is a speaker inside so you can you try and talk to a loved one in case something has happened or even just listen in to the background noise if you wanted to check up on them ( you can switch that feature off if you were concerned about privacy)
They now have a support line, which they did not before, and they will generally reply within the day if you have problems.
Flaky product and company – I looked at Trackr & Tile & NutTag. Tile seemed like the better product, but the battery was not replaceable. The NutTag Pro was thinner than the Trackr Pixel and only slightly bigger and NutTag had an Australian presence, so I thought they were worth a try. I checked out the NutTag reviews here and there weren't many, and there was a roughly even… Read more
split between very good and very bad, with few in the middle - which should have been a sign. Anyway, they 'd be worth a try as the offered a money-back guarantee, so ordered a 4-pack.
When they came, I just couldn't get them to work with my phone. 2 wouldn't pair at all and 2 kept disconnecting. When I contacted support, they said they'd sent me the old model and I needed the new model for my phone (Android 8). Their web site should have asked what phone I was using them with when I made the purchase, but didn't.
I returned them for replacement (they said they'd pay return shipping) and the first thing I noticed about the next lot they sent was that they were white, when the Pro model is shown as black. Sure enough, when I measured them, I found they were the size of the larger (and cheaper) Find3 model, so actually much bigger than Trackr pixel. When I queried that, NutTag didn't answer the question, and since size was one of the reasons I'd bought NutTag, I wasn't happy.
Since I had them, I tried them anyway and was able to connect these to my phone, but that was about as good as it got. The tags would frequently go off when they were right next to the phone and frequently wouldn't when they were separated. The app is really poor - it's like it's still in beta. The map labels are in an Asian language (Chinese-like characters), the map didn't work properly if you zoom in. The disconnection position shown on the map is not even close to being accurate enough to identify where you lost a tag (i.e often not within a city block) and then address shown is wrong - it doesn't show street name and has local council (e.g. City of Whitehorse) instead of suburb (Box Hill). The app doesn't override the silent setting on your phone like it's supposed to and the online portal they advertise (so you can find your phone if you lose it) doesn't even exist. Finally, the crowd finding feature, which is one of the main benefits of a device like this isn't even in the app.
So, I returned my tags, again with the promise of a return shipping refund. Eventually I got a refund for the tags, but they're now refusing to pay for 2 x return shipping because I didn't purchase using PayPal - something I specifically asked about. Edit: Coincidentally, a few hours after I wrote this review, I was contacted about the return postage refund, which I've since received.
It's become clear that many of the good reviews on this product must be fake. That's the only thing that can account for the way the reviews are distributed. This product has been on the market for some time (they advertise as compatible with Samsung Galaxy S3, which is a 6 year old phone), but the product comes across as still in beta. When it worked, it was good, but there were too many false positives and too many times it should have gone off and didn't. And dodgy things like sending the cheap model to replace the Pro version is not a good sign. If you're in the market for a tag like this, Trackr is smaller than what NutTag is and Tile now has a model with a replaceable battery, so consider those instead.
Works better than other key Tags I've tried – I've used the Nut tags on all my family's keys , work keys and son's wallet (family set of 8 nut tags). Quick to find when lost around the house, and I can tell if I left my keys at work. The "Declared lost" function has found things when I left my keys outside of bluetooth range . Battery life is very good, has lasted 1 yr so far. No failures. … Read more
Ive had a nylon lanyard broken on a key ring used constantly every day, mildy disappointing but probably fair wear and tear, and Nut replaced them for free, appreciated. Id get the Nut Pro version next time, it has a chain instead of a nylon cord.
This is not a full time GPS tracker, but it is a compact, good looking and durable bluetooth key and wallet finder. I just need a smaller version to stick on my glasses.
Ive used about 4 other branded key finder tags prior to the Nut, this one stands out as reliably doing what I really need it to do. Ive set the app to not use the separation alert, I only use to find things when I need to. The Nut app could be improved to be a it more intuitive, but still better than other key tag apps.
(Other Nut tag reviewers seem to be very intolerant and not willing to use the nut tags and app as they were designed to be used, must be unhappy people.... )

Never misplace your wallet again!! – I bought this for my father who seems to lose his wallet in his car all the time. It’s a great time saver for him as he doesn’t have to panic anymore, he can just push a button!! Show details
It’s the best new helper I have brought into my life – I lost my house keys so many times before getting the NutTag. I love the silent zones feature. I haven’t lost my keys once since getting the NutTag. It’s terrific! Show details
Great device – The Nutag Key finder was bought for my 101-year-old mother who is constantly losing her house keys, not anymore. The tag makes it easy for us to find the keys for her, the app is easy to use, no more lost keys. Show details
Negative reviews
Has great potential – The first watch wouldn't charge. A lovely customer service person helped me manually Reset it. It was very difficult to understand their directions due to language challenges. The positives are that only the numbers you program in can call the watch. The watch doesn't charge or doesn't hold a charge for long. Some days it works. Mostly it doesn't. I would not recommend this product. Show details
Like most things from China, just outlasted the warranty – Got this as a birthday present and it lasted 18 months sitting in my wallet, tried 2 new batteries, it's dead. Complete waste of money as all this time I thought I was safe if I lost my wallet. For all I know it might have lasted less than a year Show details
Don't buy it, range is too low, constantly disconnects – Regularly disconnects from your phone if your phone and the nut get too far from each other. This happens inside my own house. This renders the product useless as when you are trying to use either device to locate the other you cannot, unless you constantly reconnect it (before you misplace either thing). Contacted company, they said the product was working as designed and had a range of 10-20m inside a house. Waste of money, buy a tile instead. Show details

Not loud enough – The tracker works and does advise when you are getting close. But The software is not intuitive and the noise it makes is not loud enough for easy quick location. Show details
Flimsy and too quiet – Bought four of these. Two fell apart. There is a metal loop that attaches to a keyring and the loops are not welded and come apart. They are impossible to fix yourself. Units are useless if they are not attached to your keys. Need a better design. Also find the instructions difficult to understand and the lack of customer support is frustrating. The beep is too quiet.
Still so good! – Still so good! Just bought another 4 Nut Tags & my husband has the app too. No more time wasting looking for keys or my wallet or my Mums TV remote!! This is my fourth order now every time they come super quick, without a problem.
Excellent – Thanks Lost my Mercedes car keys. Nuttag found them in a shop approx. 1 km away. What a saving!!! Now easy to find my keys around my home by merely calling the tag on my phone. Ian
Great product, works well – Great product, works well haven’t lost the keys or wallet for any period of time since we got the trackers. Work well, no complaints does what it says it will do. Show details
Very happy with product – Very happy with product, bought 21/11/19 and still going strong. I didn't think much of it first of but it does what it needs to and has helped numerous times. Show details
it does not work – I bought two and they did not work consistently. when I pressed the nuttag to find my lost phone, the nutty beeped but not the phone. I could not rectify this fault. sometimes it worked and sometimes not. So I gave up and threw them away. Show details
The GPS is a great product and I have other friends who have purchased on my recommendation however – I found the product great for tracking my dogs, However one of my two GPS units failed in 2 weeks of purchase and the Companies after sales service is hopeless they don't return calls and they have had the faulitity unit for 4 weeks and still we haven't been able to get word about warranty or repair costs. I would check out warranty and after sales service before being locked in to a 12mths contract. Show details
A must have! – Very light and portable. The device’s interface with the app is also straightforward. If you are someone who usually misplaces things and needs a device to help you keep track of them then this is a must have! Show details · 1

Awesome – Looks good, easy to use and the staff were amazing, no questions that everyone should have one of these. Perfect to keep the other half from constantly misplacing their things, hehe Show reply
Ingenuity at its finest! – I am such a klutz and I always lose stuff. Having NutTag is such a life saver. No more wasting time looking for misplaced items! And the design is a big plus. It is functional, sleek and very easy to use! Show details · 1
Small but reliable – Added the small square NutTag on my keys. This is very reliable as I sometimes lose my keys somewhere in the house or even just in my bag. I like it. It's stylish and functional. It's small but powerful. Show reply
Perfect! – This is the best and perfect device for me as I always lost my wallet and phone. Have to explore it yet on how it works, but above all would recommend to have one of this. Great product! Show reply
Impressive! – Just got my device. Cool design and easy to carry around. I have yet to explore the full functionality (hoping I don't lose my wallet or keys, lol). But I am impressed by what I currently see... Good job guys for creating such a device!
Seek GPS tracker works great! – Best customer support ever. Within minutes my tracker was activated and working perfectly. The online chat support is fantastic way to get help. They also called me and confirmed all was working as it should. Great product. Show details
Useless, confusing, total waste of money – The instructions are confusing and misleading. I have not been able to bind two of the four nuts to my phone and despite repeated requests for help I am being given the same unhelpful confusing information. I can't even find out how to get my money back. Don't bother with this product, it is frustrating, useless and complete waste of money. Show details

Imagine life not spending hours looking for keys – I bought two dual boxes as Christmas presents last year. Then thought I should get one for myself. As an android user, I had issues with the nettag pro (black). Nuttag replaced it with the white version and I haven't looked back since.. I still need to remember I have the facility to look for them with my phone though... And then, in seconds, there are my keys (one time they were in my back pocket doh!).
This is perfect for my father who has Alzheimer's – The Nuttag is the best thing for the elderly I can trace my father who wonders down the shops a lot. I can call him and speak to him if I receive a SOS alert or if his had a fall. Thanks to the support team who are there to assist you if you have any questions.
Does not work – I had to use the tag once and it did not work. The location where I found my keys I passed a dozen times with the app working. Three the tag on the rubbish where it belongs.
nuttag SEEK gps – I have used a Nuttag gps seek. I have written a review on the nuttag gps seek under the correct product. It won’t let me move my review across. I can say the customer service from Nuttag has been excellent.
Love it. Panic no more – As a person who always looses his wallet, this is amazing. As soon as i leave wallet behind, app on phone alerts me. No more worry or looking for it. I have twice lost wallet and cancelled cards only to find it a day or so later, so perfect for me. Highly recommend for wallet or keys or both. Perfect gift as well.
seek nuttag – Just bought my nut tag seek. I was a bit nervous for how to set it up but fortunately the live chat person was super helpful, it was very easy. I am looking forward to track my son, and feel safe.
