Troubleshooting

If TrackiPet’s battery is completely depleted, it can take a bit longer to reach an initial charge level. Keep TrackiPet plugged in for a few minutes until you see the steady amber light. If you’re still having trouble, please contact our support team.

Press and hold the button for 5 seconds to power off the device. Press and hold for another 8 seconds to power it on again.

There are several possibilities:

  • The device is off – Check if the device responds to a short button press. An LED light should flick on.
  • The device is on but shut down – If the App indicates that your device is shut down, activate the 'send beep' command. The device should start communicating shortly.
  • The device is on but doesn't send location updates – Your dog is probably indoors and in the proximity of a known WiFi network. The device should resume location updates when your dog goes outside.
  • The device is on but not responding to the 'send beep' command – Please contact our support team.

To protect your privacy, you will need to contact our support team to remove a device from your account. Because TrackiPet is a tracking device, we do not allow users to remove devices from one account and then add them to others.
