October 17, 201510 yr And in my experience if someone like you comes knocking at the door under similar circumstances one of two things happens: 1. They don't answer. 2. They answer pointing a firearm at you. And as a retired police officer I know lots of things, especially the how not to do things. I was referring to an instance such as the op stated. I believe that if it were a co-worker and I had evidence to show them that property is in their apartment, I believe most would cooperate, given the fact that they know I can't arrest them and that I'm just there to get my property back. It's a tricky situation sure, it would be much better if the police could just use the evidence themselves to help the victim out. But apparently gps can't get them a warrant to retrieve stolen property. However they can use gps to get warrants for other crimes. Sorry, it just seems stupid to me.

October 22, 201510 yr Do these apps pinpoint with enough accuracy to know without a doubt they are in one house rather than possibly in a neighboring house/apartment? I would imagine a apartment complex could pose difficulties.

I would imagine a apartment complex could pose difficulties. I am sure that is one of the major issues. If only we could get the military grade version of these Apps.
