Crowdsourcing Mornings: Flok Tracker: Get 30% Better Coverage & 2X More Accuracy

By Nathan Young on November 25, 2019

This is Crowdsourcing Mornings! This post takes place every weekday morning and highlights one crowdsourcing project I liked from Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or other crowdsourcing websites.

Please read our crowdsourcing guidelines at: https://geekalabama.com/media-kit-pr/geek-alabama-crowdsourcing-guidelines

Flok Trackers use Low Power Wide Area Networks LTE-M/NB-IoT, GPS & Bluetooth to offer maximum positioning accuracy and an extended battery life so users can find their loved ones or belongings as quickly as possible. Flok also uses LTE-M & Narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) technology, which significantly reduces the power consumption of devices, system capacity and spectrum efficiency, especially in deep coverage. This technology allows the trackers to be lightweight with maximum positioning accuracy and a long battery life.

Using LTE-M/NB-IoT network technology and an accompanying mobile app, Flok is two times more accurate than other 3G trackers on the market. Flok has an unlimited working radius between the device and smartphone. With Flok, knowing the exact location of belongings, pets and loved ones is extremely accurate and effortless.

Flok’s mobile app controls it all – from the location of kids, pets and valuables to notifications of any unusual activity. The app allows users to choose a custom geofence radius, receive updates about whatever is being tracked in pre-selected intervals, track wherever loved ones are, enable sleep mode and review device-based user history.

Flok includes a geofence with notifications that send an alert if the tracker strays outside of the area that has been set. For finding belongings indoors, Flok makes a ringing sound at the press of a button. Additionally, an instant notification will be sent if the app detects any unusual activity. For those people with older family members, notifications and a fall down sensor can assist seniors in the case of an emergency.

As of November 25th, this project has raised $32,000 of their $25,000 goal. This project has 26 days left to raise as much as it can. For a pledge of $44, you will get one Flok Tracker. For a pledge of $89, you will get two Flok Trackers. To learn more and to pledge money, go to: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/501367854/flok-the-most-reliable-next-generation-gps-tracker?
