Thanks to a built-in SIM card, there are no monthly fees for use. GPS location monitoring is conveniently carried out via an app that displays the motorcycle’s location and offers additional functions such as monitoring the battery level, riding data, emergency call function and more. This tracker is particularly practical for motorcyclists who like to be on the road or park their motorcycle in places where they don’t always have it in view.
Theft protection: advantages of the SizzApp tracker
SizzApp offers a comprehensive range of features tailored to the needs of motorcyclists. The tracker is connected to the vehicle battery and operated with a special SIM card. Users can monitor their location in real time via the app and are notified in the event of unauthorized movements. For example, the tracker sends a notification to the linked smartphone in the event of vibrations or unauthorized movement. This direct warning function can help to react quickly and protect the motorcycle.
But what if a thief simply disconnects the tacker from the battery and cuts the cables? In this case, a notification and or even a call to the connected cell phone is started immediately (depending on the setting). This way you are informed immediately. In addition, the tracker is equipped with its own small battery, so that if it loses contact with the motorcycle battery, it can still transmit its location for several hours.
Security and emergency features
- Theft protection and motion detection: The tracker is equipped with sensors that detect any movement of the vehicle. In the event of unauthorized movement of the motorcycle, a notification is immediately sent to the app, giving the owner the opportunity to take immediate action.
- Call notification in sleep mode: If the vehicle is moved while the owner’s cell phone is muted or in sleep mode, a direct call can also be made depending on the settings in the app. This telephone number can be assigned certain authorizations or a specific ringtone in advance to ensure that the owner is informed of a potential theft situation even when the vehicle is not in use and the cell phone rings despite being in sleep mode.
- SOS emergency function: In an emergency, the owner can press the SOS button on the app. This alerts predefined contacts, which can be particularly useful when driving alone. If permitted via the app, the tracker also automatically sends a notification to a specific contact if an accident is registered.
Route tracking and social functions
In addition to security aspects, SizzApp offers a wide range of convenient functions that focus on social and statistical elements:
- Ride analysis: The app saves and analyzes routes taken, average and maximum speeds and provides a graphical representation of the ride history. This information can be exported as a GPX file and shared with others.
- You can display the route you have ridden, the altitude meters you have covered, the ride and break times, the speed you have ridden and much more. However, you also have this in your own hands, as you can of course deactivate all of this.
- Eco-Drive analysis: The app analyzes the riding style by evaluating acceleration and braking behavior. This allows drivers to optimize their style and adapt their driving style to save fuel.
- Real-time location sharing: While driving, the location can be shared with friends in real time, which is particularly interesting for group rides. Riders can view their routes in a leaderboard and see who has ridden the longest distance.
Installation and user-friendliness
Installation of the SizzApp tracker is straightforward and comes with detailed instructions:
- Attaching the tracker: The compact tracker (70.5 x 67.0 x 25.6 mm, 79 g) is attached to a concealed position on the motorcycle using the enclosed double-sided adhesive tape and connected to the battery. Black cable to minus, red cable to plus and you’re done.
- Pairing with the app: The app is available free of charge in the Google Play Store and App Store. The tracker is linked to the app via the IMEI number, allowing users to customize settings such as motion detection and notifications. The possible settings are very comprehensive, but also optimally preconfigured. This offers the optimal experience for beginners or those who don’t want to spend a lot of time with it, as well as for those who want to tease out the last bit of the really comprehensive functions.
- Energy-saving mode: The SizzApp tracker is equipped with an automatic energy-saving mode that puts the tracker into deep sleep mode after long periods of inactivity, thus saving the vehicle’s battery.
Technical data and energy consumption
The SizzApp tracker is compact and specially developed for use in motorcycles and has a high-quality finish (although it can of course also be used for other vehicles). The technical details are designed for long-lasting and reliable use:
- Dimensions and weight: The tracker measures 70.5 x 67.0 x 25.6 mm and weighs 79 g (approx. 0.17 lbs).
- Battery consumption: While riding, the tracker consumes about 160 mAh. After 15 minutes of inactivity, it switches to standby mode and reduces consumption to 10 mA. In deep sleep mode (activated after one hour of standing still), the daily consumption at 12 V is only 150-250 mA (of course, the motorcycle is also monitored in this state and the tracker wakes up as soon as it detects movement or anything unusual).
- Low battery level: If the battery level drops, you receive a warning via the app. The current battery level is also displayed in the app at all times.
- Weatherproof: Thanks to the IP67 protection class, the tracker is dustproof and waterproof and can be used in extreme conditions (-40 °C to +85 °C).
Costs and availability
The SizzApp tracker comes without a subscription and is therefore very inexpensive. It costs around €275.00 once and the app is also free. As the tracker comes with a permanently integrated SIM card, there are no monthly fees for the user. Several vehicles can also be tracked via the app. However, each vehicle needs its own tracker.
Data protection and data security
SizzApp attaches particular importance to the protection of user data. All data is handled in accordance with European data protection standards (GDPR) and transmitted in encrypted form to protect the privacy and data protection of users. No data is passed on to third parties, which guarantees the owner full control over the stored information.
Conclusion
The SizzApp GPS tracker is a comprehensive safety and convenience solution for motorcyclists. Easy installation, route analysis and real-time monitoring without monthly subscription fees make it a practical investment. With its combination of theft protection, route recording and energy-saving function, the SizzApp Tracker offers a well thought-out solution that meets the requirements of many motorcyclists. The motorcycle remains “in view” even during longer absences and the owner receives important data about his vehicle – regardless of subscription models and additional costs.
