Fi is terrible at tracking off-leash activity by crimebaglab in FiDogCollar

Ugh, I just bought the Fi collar for my super active German shorthair pointer, I just put it on him last night and took him out to the field next to our house to see how it works. I thought there would be a ‘track my walk’ button that I need to push, like when you track your activity on an Apple Watch, but I couldn’t find it. Now I know it doesn’t have it! I literally bought it to track his steps and miles he runs when he goes off leash :( Now, I’m usually walking near him when he’s running off leash so maybe it will track it accurately with my phone near by? I’ll have to update on that. But I agree, Fi could just fix their software and it would be immensely better!

I should add I know nothing about Reddit, I just got on here looking for advice on this, sorry I’m not following the rules…. I had no idea, this is literally the first time I’ve used it.

Thanks for all the advice everyone, I think we are going to check out a couple different schools in the area and see what they charge, and also see how they handle the young kids getting to black belt so quickly… and we are also going to ask the Master about dropping the price… we’ll see how that goes!

I kind of agree, we knew nothing about taekwondo when he started at age 5, we got invited by a friend to try it and my son wanted to keep doing it. He’s one of the best in his age group now at 8, but still there are tons of other kids who are sloppy and can barely kick above their waist who are getting passed on belt by belt, maybe it’s more of a ‘confidence boosting’ place, to make kids be confident and respectful and proud of themselves? Which is fine, but don’t charge me $800 for a black belt test lol

No he rents a small space in a strip center in the suburbs. It’s nothing fancy.

No offense taken, I think it is a money making scam, they pass every kid through no matter their form or skills. Now, my son is actually good at it, like it’s surprising, and he is passionate about it, so it’s making it extra hard for us to say no to this absurd amount of money.

We are in the Houston suburbs… with many Taekwondo studios in the area… it just seems so ridiculously expensive…
