FAQs

You can set Safety/Geofence zones from our control panel, and you will receive emails, SMS or push messages when you leave and/or enter the safety zones. (you will need to setup the alert contacts in the settings tab in the control panel for this to work see setup geofence zones). You can add, edit & delete Safety Zones and set as many as you require .

You will receive 30 SMS credits per tracker as standard, included in your monthly subscription. Every command you send to the tracker or SMS message you receive will use one of your monthly SMS credits, but email and push alerts are unlimited.

If you run out, we can top them up free of charge on occasion. However, if this is likely to become a frequent occurrence, speak to us about payment options for an increase in your SMS credit allowance.

Any GPS tracking device has its limitations. For example, if you are inside a room with no windows and a solid concrete or lead roof, then the chances of obtaining a valid GPS position are very low. The units do however, have very sensitive GPS receivers, which help the devices to obtain a fix very quickly. In general, you will find the devices perform to a very high standard and will work in many buildings.

Sometimes, when the tracker is stationary inside a building or in a confined space, the GPS signal can be difficult to transmit and some ‘bouncing’ or ‘reflection/refraction’ may occur- giving a false impression of movement. A bounce will usually still show a location which is accurate to within a few metres, however.

No. You are ready to track, straight out of the box unless you have purchased the tracker inactive.

No. You can log into the web-based control panel from any internet browser using a PC, laptop or tablet. If you are accessing the control panel from a mobile phone, you will need to download the free iPhone or Android apps. Both these options are included with your subscription.

Only our personal/leaflet trackers have the panic button function. When the panic button is held down for 5 seconds, the following will happen:

1. The unit will inform the control panel with an audio/visual ALERT MESSAGE, indicating that the panic button has been activated and giving full location details.

2. You can receive an email or SMS message, informing you that the panic button has been activated and giving you full locations details. To activate this feature, you must enter your email address or mobile number in the SETTINGS SECTION on the control panel. (Please use country code, i.e. +447xxx xxxxxx)

3. Your mobile phone can receive a push alert, alerting you of the above. You will need to have set this feature up first, using the settings cog symbol which is visible at the top right when you initially log in to the app (See Jan 2021’s Amy’s Advice in the News section of this site for detailed instructions).

You will also receive a low battery warning via email, SMS and/or push notification (if these have been set up) once the charge drops past your custom threshold, e.g. 20%.
