Ather Tow and Theft alerts
Theft and Tow alerts, explained

Theft & Tow alerts

If the scooter is moved, lifted or towed while parked and locked, the Ather app sends an alert to your phone. You see it within seconds, not when you come back to an empty parking spot.

Find My Scooter

The app shows where your scooter is. Useful after a theft, and just as useful in a mall basement when you cannot remember which level you parked on. Some models also let you ping the scooter so it signals where it is.

Remote lock and the TheftSafe suite

Ather's anti-theft suite — including ParkSafe, LockSafe and remote locking, depending on model and software — lets you secure the motor from your phone so the scooter cannot be ridden away. Feature names and availability vary by model; we show you exactly what yours has at delivery.

Which models have them

Theft & Tow alerts and Find My Scooter are listed across the 450 series and Rizta, and on the Konarc S 2.7 kWh and 3.5 kWh variants (not the 2.1 kWh). Most connected features rely on the scooter's mobile connection, so keep your connectivity plan active.

Check these settings today

  1. Notifications for the Ather app are allowed on your phone.
  2. Your scooter shows as online in the app.
  3. Family members who use the scooter have their own access, rather than sharing your login.

And do not rely on technology alone: park in lit areas and use a disc lock in public places.
