Jiobit offers a convenient way to keep tabs on pets or on young children who walk to home from school, as it is the smallest tracking device in the world. The product has a high level of security through encrypted data and a closed system of communication that prohibits outside interference with a security chip, similar to those found in credit cards.

The smallest tracking device also boasts an easy-to-wear design in three distinct forms. The built-in loop is customizable to shoelaces, drawstrings and the like. The waistband clip is best for belts and the secure loop makes sure the [GPS gadget](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/life360-pet-gps) does not fall off tag loops, belt loops or buttonholes.

In addition to being the smallest tracking device on the market, the Jiobit also has the [longest lasting battery life](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/icetag) -- 7 to 30 days.
