Life360 introduced the Pet GPS, a collar-or-harness tracker priced at $49.99. The device builds on Life360's Tile acquisition and integrated item-finding capabilities. The tracker fuses cellular, GPS, Wi‑Fi, and Bluetooth and updates location every 2 to 4 seconds when away from home. Key features include geofencing with safe zones, escape alerts, and a Pet Finder Network that shares lost-pet information—name, image, breed, and emergency contact—with nearby community members. The network exceeds 88 million members. The device includes a built-in light, a chime function, an IP68 rating for water, dust, and bite resistance, a charger, and up to 14 days of battery life.
"The family safety app Life360 is venturing into pet tech with the launch of its new tracking device, the Pet GPS. Designed to attach to a collar or harness, this new device aims to offer pet owners peace of mind by delivering real-time location updates for their dogs and cats. The launch of the Pet GPS feels like a natural evolution for Life360, particularly following its acquisition of the tracking device company Tile in 2021."
"Key features include geofencing (virtual boundary alerts), escape alerts, and access to a Pet Finder Network. Pet owners can set up safe zones, and if a pet runs off, an escape alert will be triggered. Users can also alert the nearby community about a lost pet. When issuing a lost pet alert, the app shares important information with nearby members, such as the pet's name, image, breed, and emergency contact details."
