Aldi is once more offering a popular GPS tracker in its online shop, which sold out quickly last time. Thanks to GPS, it is significantly better than the AirTag.

Always on offer at Aldi, but then they usually sell out quickly. The discounter is currently offering a fully-fledged GPS tracker in its online shop with a free data SIM card that can be used within the EU, Switzerland and Norway at no additional cost. This means you can find your items from anywhere without any fees or subscription.

Locating misplaced keys, identifying bicycle thieves or finding a lost backpack – so-called trackers have become increasingly popular in recent years. By the time Apple introduced the AirTags, Bluetooth trackers were mass-produced. Many manufacturers now offer such gadgets, such as Samsung or Tile. However, their intended use is limited because they rely on Bluetooth.
The Bluetooth trackers therefore rely on the community: If you lose your backpack with an AirTag and an iPhone approaches it, you will be informed of the location – even if you are far away. Practical but unreliable. Firstly, the finder must have a device from the same manufacturer. Secondly, it is of no use in remote areas where no one is present.
In addition, these people sometimes also receive information that there is a tracker in this backpack. This is intended to prevent stalking using the trackers. This is generally a good thing, but in the case of stolen cars or bicycles, informing the thief would be counterproductive. These restrictions do not apply to Aldi’s GPS tracker.
Long battery life and waterproof
The battery life is up to four years or 4,000 tracks. The frequency of tracking can be adjusted using different profiles. The tracker can, among other things, send its location every 10 or 15 minutes, or alternatively only once an hour or once a day.
With dimensions of 6.4 x 6.4 x 2.3 centimeters, the device is very small and is also waterproof thanks to IP67. You can find the tracker via apps for iOS and Android as well as the online platform – so you are flexible. Of course, an operating manual is included in which you will find all the setting options. The tracker is always on offer at Aldi, and the product is usually sold out within a short period of time.
