As the title asks, I want to be able to set up a rule that notifies me when my tag goes out of range from me.

The other day my dog got out by breaking open a piece of fence board, and was found half a mile down the road near a busy intersection. She had a 10 minute headstart and we only found her because some random truck stopped as we were looking and said he had seen her.

This will let me know that she got out when I’m at home. And that way she would only have a couple hundred feet lead instead of a much larger one, and if I move quick enough, she’ll come back into range and then I can track her on the app through the map view

Looks like you can only get notified if your tag gets left behind; like say, leaving your keys or bag somewhere. In this case I want to know if my bag walks away haha. I imagine it’d be helpful too with bags and luggage that run risk of being stolen in busy places.

    It seems like the left behind notification should still work for your purpose though. Did you try it? It’s supposed to notify you when the tag is too far away to connect to the phone. It doesn’t say that the phone has to be the one moving. I haven’t tried it though. If you haven’t tried it, give it a shot. Have someone walk your dog down the street while you stay still.

      Seems it I have a different issue preventing me from doing that. I walked the dog but the tag showed staying at home
