Phone Buddy Phone Lost Alert for Positive User Reviews
✓ Phone buddy powerIt seems like this app use a lot of the battery power almost twice as much when the app is not loaded.Version: 5.0.0
✓ So far, so goodI am always leaving my phone behind either in the car dashboard phone caddy, or in the garage or barn when I take the phone out of my pocket while i am crawling around working on a vehicle or some other project and then when I reach for my phone and realize it is gone, I have to go back and fetch it. This has really helped. When my phone has rebooted at night because it has downloaded an update, Phone Buddy has prompted me first thing the next morning to reestablish the connection. Plus when I am clearing brush or doing yard work, I often take of my watch because it collects dirt and junk under the band, and Phone Buddy has an option to let me know when I have left my watch behind too. I am very satisfied..Version: 7.5.1
✓ Works great! with a caveat.This is the app I have been waiting for! It has already saved me as I left my phone behind and it alerted my watch about 50 ft away! The only caveat is it’s a battery killer. This is probably why apple hasn’t implemented it themselves. Luckily, both phone and watch still last about 13hrs a day which works for me! Thanks developers!!.Version: 5.1.0
✓ Great app but needs to be turned onIt’s great that it reminds me when I leave my phone behind. I just have to figure out how to remember to turn the reminder on. It would be better if the app could run in the background automatically or continuously..Version: 6.1.0
✓ This app works great.Go ahead and pay the 7 dollars. It’s worth it if you have an Apple Watch. But can we get back the function of making a fake phone call from a watch to get out of conversations that was truly nice..Version: 6.1.1
✓ Well designedHad this app about a year and it seems like every time they update it I get a new feature! The basic app was good when it first came out, but with the countless updates you wouldn’t think its the same app. For what you get the price is more than reasonable. Great execution, great design and works awesome. The folks working on this app have really put some thought into it and I really like the fact they keep throwing new features on it. Very pleased. I only wish I had seen the 6.99 lifetime offer before I renewed the subscription!! One of my favorite and most useful apps, highly recommended!.Version: 5.0.0
✓ Logo change?I like your app. I really do. It does, or at least tries its best for doing what it says. I am tired of Apple playing these gimmicks where they intentionally didn’t put this feature in iPhones so people loose more iPhones and end up buying new ones. Way to go Apple. You did it again. #ForgetGate. But I had one small request, was wondering if you could have a better more simplistic, minimalistic logo. The current one looks like someone tried to make it in less than an hour. Tech wise, your app is amazing! Cheers!.Version: 3.0.0
✓ I’ve been looking for an app like this forever!Phone Buddy where have you been? You’ve already saved me 35 miles of retrieving time and I’ve only had you 3 weeks! Great tool! The lost phone works every time! I wish you had something for my keys that would alert my watch. If I don’t forget one I forget the other. Old-timers desease..Version: 7.1.0
✓ Saved my phone a few timesSo I often leave my phone behind all over the place and was looking for an app that would notify my Apple Watch when this happened (Apple’s built in one takes really long distance to let you know, like a few blocks). I bought this app even though some reviews were mixed and I’m happy I did. For me Phone Lost Alert works very well letting me know my phone is lost basically when I’m crossing the street in front of my house. This is great. I also enabled the distance alert setting with Wi-Fi Safe Zone enabled - this is the key to this setting, make sure you enable Wi-Fi safe zone and this alert works much better. I’ve had a couple moments outside of my house where the distance alert popped up as I was leaving my phone in m car, I had walked like 20 feet away. That was real cool! The app does have a bunch of configurations and can be a bit confusing but honestly I’m super impressed and I found what works really well for me (shared above!)..Version: 7.3.0
✓ Fake callPut back the fake call as in the previous version, please😪🙏,thank you for answering me,but in reality it is not the same as in the previous version,before you could modify the fake call and the fake call would appear on the full screen,as if someone really called you!,Put it as it was before and leave the new things that you put up to now!Thank you again,greetings from my country E Salvador;BYE..Version: 6.0.3
✓ Finally a app, that is doing what you want and then going above and beyond your expectations.I’ve tried every app and wrote reviews, suggestions, and over paid for everything that’s come along to protect my watch and my iphone. This app is ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC ANDS GOES ABOVE AND BEYOND MY EXPECTATIONS. IT’S A MUST HAVE. IT’S THE ONLY APP I WOULD MAKE SURE IS on MY PHONE AND MY WATCH. FINALLY YOU CAN PROTECT YOU’RE INVESTMENT. I LOSE MY PHONE SEVERAL TIMES A YEAR. You can imagine how happy that makes my wife, HAVING TO buy new phones all the time and watches AS WELL THE LAST FEW YEARS. This should eliminate everything if i use it right. I am a disabled very. I had a T. B. I. It affects my memory, motor skills and’ I’m naturally clumsy and forgetful anyhow, so sometimes my life is frustrating to say the least. Well, the older i get the worse my dropping things, & leaving things behind gets. This is a gift from the app god to me!! Thank you so much. You really out did yourself. !!!.Version: 7.6.0
✓ Exactly what I needed!Saves me from forgetting my phone all the time! Tried other apps but they all failed regularly... This one has been very reliable!.Version: 4.0.0
✓ Better than hoped!Works great, saves from forgetting my phone which I do all the time. Other apps have failed and this one exceeds. I love the battery charged notifications..Version: 4.0.0
✓ As describedThe app does everything it promises with a minimum of fuss..Version: 6.1.1
✓ DisappointingTried the premium version. It kept telling me that my iPhone and apple watch were moving apart when they were side by side. I wanted to change my review from a few weeks ago. The support team reached out to me and with their help on certain settings, this app is working great. The support team has gone way beyond what I had expected to help. The basic app is good but the active mood upgrade is well worth the money. If you have a problem leaving your iPhone behind, this will notify you on your Apple Watch about the problem. 5 stars is the highest I can give but if possible it would be higher..Version: 3.0.0
✓ Finally what i neededIt’s too bad Apple refuses to do this. Find My alerts on the Apple watch are absolute garbage in comparison. This app alerts you before you have a chance to leave your phone behind while Find My will maybe alert you long after it’s gone. This is a must for anyone that has a tendency to forget their phone..Version: 7.5.1
✓ This has probably saved me a couple of phonesAnd it has saved me a lot of time and mileage, not having to return to get my phone left behind..Version: 6.1.1
✓ BrianI have been looking for this for a long time, and I hated Apple for not coming out with such an app, but now I am so happy with this app.. I used to leave home without the phone so many times, I had to connect my watch to an LTE network in case I keep on forgetting my phone and it cost me 10$/month.. now after downloading this app I saved the money and no more hassle leaving the phone or the watch behind.. Thanks guys keep the good work..Version: 7.3.0
✓ IndispensableThis app should be on every iPhone, only so long until Apple acquires these guys. New version adds helpful videos. Accuracy and alerts continue to be excellent..Version: 2.0.3
✓ Everyone Needs ThisA few years ago I left my phone in a Vegas casino and didn’t realize it until hours later when I was back in my hotel room. I was so frustrated that my Apple Watch somehow couldn’t alert me of this because it would’ve saved me a ton of time and frustration. This lead me to look into solutions for this type of situation and that’s how I found this app. Haven’t lost my phone again since that incident in Vegas but knowing I have this app installed gives me peace of mind. The alerts for when you’re distancing (or disconnecting) from your phone work perfectly and are extremely useful. This a must-have app for every iPhone and Apple Watch owner..Version: 6.1.1
✓ Handy appIt’s one of those things that you kind of forget about...until it saves you from leaving your phone behind. All-in-all worth having on your phone/watch..Version: 2.0.3
✓ Does what Apple should have done - essentialThis app fills the gap that Apple have left - sick of leaving phone behind ? You need this app! Great dev too is there for support. Highly recommended 5/5.Version: 7.1.0
✓ Works great but watch batteryApp does what it says. If your forgetful then this is for you as you never have to worry about forgetting your iPhone or Apple Watch. Down side, it does effect battery. I’ve seen a drop between 15-20% in my daily battery usage. I’m hoping the developer can address this and I’d prefer it to be about 5%, but it’s not. Great app though and worth the investment.Version: 6.0.3
✓ Works great but please add year to date of reviews,Lost my phone recently, I left it in a store. I was lucky enough to get it back and found this app. Works great, instructions though are either vague or outdated based on new devices. Also, please add the year to the date of the review. -Marc.Version: 6.0.1
✓ Decent AppI like this app! The left behind alert has to be “dialed in” to work properly. My wish is that the Lost Alert would automatically arm, after I turn the watch back on? I recommend this app however..Version: 6.1.1
✓ NiceGood app to have if you at a party and forget your phone. But for the Apple Watch ultra the layout is over lapping with the words. But cool app I’ll recommend it..Version: 7.5.1
✓ Love this AppI absolutely love this app. I WISH l had it a month ago when I left my iPhone 11 in a restaurant in Italy! With this latest version, which knows when I’m at home and doesn’t set off the alarm as I move around the house, it is now perfect. It’s stopped me losing my replacement phone once already! Highly recommend and worth every penny..Version: 6.0.0
✓ All or nothingInstalled this on a family member’s watch. It does what it say it does but the only problem is you can’t customize the alert style and sound. It’s either continuous vibration + loud alert sound or a single vibration with no sound that you will hardly notice. Please add the ability to customize our own sound from the selection on the phone. Also please allow us to enable continuous vibration without the alert sound. Or even better allow us to pick different vibration rhythm so we can tell which is which..Version: 5.1.0
✓ Works fine most timesIt is the best app for what is required: separation alert. The features are endless and give us comfort we can customize as we wish. The two main issues for me: 1) having to restart it or make sure it’s active (you KNOW Murphy’s law will make it thag the one time you loose it was when the app wasn’t active) -> I think developer still working on that. 2) False alerts: there are still too many but I know it’s better to have a few false alerts than loosing phone. But yes the loud alarm, while awesome, is also startling and makes all my family/friends laugh. QUESTION FOR THE DEVELOPER: any tips on wifi on feature not working? Live in a looooong apartment, walk from one end to the other and alert goes off. But phone is on wifi - why wouldn’t it work?.Version: 7.1.0
✓ The app I’ve been waiting forFound this app after it was recommended in an Apple News article. This app adds functionality that should be included as a built-in feature of the Apple Watch but isn’t. A few teething problems with alerts using Apple Watch series 5 with an iPhone XR that the excellent Phone Buddy Support Team were quick to resolve. This app has features such as fake calls that I don’t plan on using but the ‘Lost Phone’ alerts will mean that never again will I leave my phone in the car only to realise when I get to my office and have to go back and get my phone! Early days with this app but so far so good - very pleased to have found it and purchased the lifetime Active Version without hesitation. It was the excellent support I received that led me to leave my first ever App Store review..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Phone buddyMy phone buddy it’s great the day before I downloaded this I paid eight dollars for this overnight I placed my phone but accidentally I have forgotten where I put my lphone show are used mine phone buddyTo locate it it works great advice we all think about what would happen if I had my iPhone in my pocket and it accidentally dropped out my phone buddy would automatically remind me that I left my phone behind even while you have to pay for this app I would recommend highly enough.Version: 6.1.1
✓ Finally the app Apple Watch should have had all alongAfter leaving my phone at work and driving home for a second time in 4 weeks, I finally decided to set up an alert for when my Apple Watch disconnects from the phone. Except wait, there isn’t one! I tried two free solutions that didn’t work, then finally Phone Buddy. This one works. I’m only using the Bluetooth connectivity part. I can’t even make it to my car before I get an alert. This is exactly what I needed..Version: 6.1.1
✓ Excellent AppThis is a great app. I use it all the time. The developers are great. They listen to the user’s suggestions and issues. Answer questions and tailer their app based on so users can have the best experience. Thanks..Version: 6.1.1
✓ Dev Nailed It !!!Outstanding app, period! This feature should come stock from Apple but since it isn’t, the Dev hit a grand slam with this one. Frankly, even if Apple did release a feature like this, I don’t even think they could match Phone Buddy. This is app is feature rich and works exactly as advertised which is the most important thing. The map feature is incredible and with a AW S5 and the built in magnetometer, it’s that much better. If you’re looking for a one stop shop- all in one app to make sure you never lose your phone, with complication support, I highly recommend this one. The Dev is very responsive as well..Version: 2.5.0
✓ Saved my IPhone!! 😭🥰🙏 💯Whoever made this app is a genius! I was getting on my flight and as I was walking down the jetway when my watch alerted me that I had left my phone in the waiting area! Holy crap my life would have sucked if it weren’t for this amazing new app. So thankful!! It’s saved me a few other times as well, definitely would recommend!.Version: 6.0.2
✓ Alert when you forgot your iPhone !Pretty cool, I was waiting for this since Apple Watch Serie-0 ! Suggestion for the "Fake Call" option it would be better if you add 10 or 20 seconds before the fake call ring..Version: 4.0.0
✓ Very good appIt is a very good application, the only downside of the app is the alarm is disabled when I shut down my watch and then start it again..Version: 7.5.1
✓ Useful -BUT……This app is useful for those prone to always leaving their phone behind - however - it will drain your battery quickly. My battery did last all day, now, I need to charge it much more frequently. So, the trade off is, get reminded when you left your phone behind but pay with less battery life or continue forgetting your phone. Also - this is not a free app. You pay a one time fee of $4.99. So, 5 stars for usefulness, 1 star for battery drain. You pick. I think I’ll delete it..Version: 7.4.0
✓ Olympic National Park hike-worked great with no serviceWent for a hike. Had lunch and listened to the creek bubble. Left no trace except for my lost phone! Thanks phone buddy. You worked even with no service..Version: 6.1.1
✓ Great appOnly gripe, and it is a nit-picky gripe, is that I wish there was a way to turn off the icon from showing up at the top in the center of the watch face. Very effective app that adds a feature that the watch should have already. Cheers!.Version: 6.1.1
✓ Saved my life!I lost my phone and I was so screwed, and I definitely can not afford another phone. So having this app was such a great decision and I am forever grateful. Tracked my phone immediately and spared me from pure heartbreak. Love it! If you are ever concerned with ever losing your phone, definitely does not hurt to download this app!.Version: 4.0.0
