About the Citroen C4
The C4 is Citroen's distinctive family hatch-crossover, famous for its Advanced Comfort seats and now the e-C4 electric version. Roomy and quiet, it hides a tracker phone well.
Where to mount a tracking phone in the C4
- Under-floor boot tray - spacious and hidden.
- Under the rear bench - flat and dry.
- Centre console - near USB power.
- Power - USB or 12 V.
- Signal - avoid metal seat frames.
Private by design - no manufacturer cloud, no foreign servers
Modern cars are permanently connected: the maker's own app knows where your car is and routes that data through its cloud. Our approach is the opposite. Tracking runs entirely on a phone you own, and your location history lives in your own SpySat account. We do not pass it to the car maker and we do not send it to any foreign data centre.
