GPS trackers, Bluetooth trackers, microchips: there is no shortage of solutions for locating a pet. But not all of them are equal. Weenect has developed its own technology — InfinityTrack™ — with one goal: to offer the highest possible level of safety for your pet. Here is what really makes the difference in everyday use.
More accurate, more responsive tracking
When it comes to GPS, accuracy depends above all on signal quality and how often positions are transmitted.
The Weenect tracker accesses four satellite constellations simultaneously (GPS, Galileo, Beidou and Glonass), which means more than 60% more visible satellites compared with a standard tracker. On top of that, a hybrid positioning algorithm — part of the calculation is done directly in the tracker, the other part in the cloud using artificial intelligence — makes it possible to correct positioning errors, including in urban areas or indoors.
In Superlive mode, your pet’s position is updated every second, compared with every two to three seconds for other solutions on the market. In standard tracking, the GPS tracking frequency can be as high as one position every 10 seconds, whereas most competitors are limited to one position every two to three minutes. This responsiveness results in a far more accurate location history and truly real-time tracking.
A connection you can always rely on
A GPS tracker is only useful if it is connected. And that is often where other solutions disappoint: a tracker may show a “connected” status even though it has actually been offline for several minutes, creating a false sense of safety.
Weenect checks the tracker’s connection in real time when the app is open, and every 5 minutes in the background. So you always have reliable information about your tracker’s status.
The tracker includes an integrated SIM card compatible with 2G, 4G (LTE-M and NB-IoT) and 5G networks, and can automatically switch to the best available network. It works in more than 170 countries, with no configuration required on your part. Unlike Bluetooth trackers such as the AirTag or microchips, the Weenect tracker works with no distance limit: as long as it can pick up a mobile network, it can communicate its position.
Battery life designed for everyday use
Battery life is a sensitive point for GPS trackers: a device that runs out of power in a single day quickly loses all interest. Weenect has integrated several innovations to extend battery life without compromising tracking quality.
The tracker is equipped with a motion detector: as soon as your pet is still (for example, when sleeping), GPS tracking switches off automatically and turns back on at the slightest movement. Power-saving areas, linked to your Wi‑Fi box, allow the tracker to know it is in a safe place and stop searching for GPS while it remains there. In addition, Airplane Mode also cuts the connection to the server for maximum power savings.
The result: the Weenect XT offers up to 3 weeks of battery life and the Weenect XS up to 10 days — unmatched performance for trackers of a similar size on the market.
A tracker designed to last
A GPS tracker follows your pet on every adventure — so it has to measure up.
Weenect trackers are IP68 certified, which means they can withstand prolonged immersion up to 1 meter deep for one hour. Most other trackers on the market are limited to IPX7 or IP67 ratings, which only cover immersion for 30 minutes at 1 meter. The Weenect XT also comes with an integrated Julius-K9 collar that can withstand up to 235 kg of pulling force — whereas conventional elastic or plastic attachments give way much more easily against branches, brambles or bites.
Weenect offers a Lifetime Guarantee on its trackers, covering manufacturing defects and normal wear and tear. It is a strong commitment against planned obsolescence in a market where the standard warranty is generally limited to two years.
Conclusion
GPS accuracy, connection reliability, battery life, durability, Lifetime Guarantee: Weenect was designed to make no compromises when it comes to your pet’s safety. InfinityTrack™ technology brings all these advantages together in a compact tracker designed for everyday life as well as the most demanding adventures.
