Not a programmer so no idea what is wrong. Any suggestions

Yeah but it didn’t pick it up. I have actually removed it from my config - wasn’t reliable enough and didn’t like leaving the app running in the background of my iPhone
I only have one, and I use it to track my dog to know if she is home or at my grandmother’s (she watches her during the day) I have an old android phone at her house and my phone on me.
With this setup things have been working reliably. I think the biggest problem is if Bluetooth doesn’t separate from the device, for example you have a trackr with you to track you at all times. Their app doesn’t report you location change often enough. However if you do what I am doing and Bluetooth isn’t always seeing the device it seems to work well.
