Some are complaining about batter drain - If its draining your battery, kill the app (it will recall your last location save). Simple & indispensable

Need to store local on SD and let phone turn off. Kills battery too quickly and therefore app can be useless for long durations away from car.

I went to the chiefs football game and this thing did nothing. Don't download. I have the thunderbolt.

Good app

Actually like Car Finder Pro the best... this thing doesn't send text alerts when your parking meter expires.

Just launch Google maps and star your location. This is marginally more convenient, but how often do you need it? Seems like a waste of app space.

Absolute worst tracker on market, you could not pay me to keep it. Don't waste time find better one

Wouldn't it make more sense to locate your car with google maps and flag that location? Phhh it sounded like a cool idea till I realized..

Program no good for me. I set my location while sitting in my car, never moved, 5 minutes later I looked at it and it said I was 55 feet away.

'10' uses only allowed 1 cause it counts just starting app as a 'use'. Location was accurate direction to was not. Would have tried again but couldn't
