## What is DD Background?

DD Background capture data from OEM Data Delivery's series of Bluetooth Trackers while running silently in the background.  With DD Background you can see automatically collect data from Bluetooth Trackers that are attached to equipment around you.

This app uses your location in order to provide a geographic point associated with nearby OEM BT trackers.

Note: The DD Background app works best when it can continuously show all available trackers. Both the iPhone and iPad apps will prevent the display from going to sleep during the day, and will dim in the evening to conserve battery. However, for best results please disable Auto-Lock. Go to Settings > Display & Brightness > Auto-Lock. Set Auto-Lock to "Never". This will keep your screen awake, but still respect your screen dimming settings.
