Some of the features that this app delivers are the capability of viewing all of your account's devices in a HERE map right from the start in the homepage. In this map each marker is a direct link to the summary page of that particular device. If all of your devices are difficult to see in your map, the app conveniently lists all of your devices in the 'View All' page. For each device you can view their summary, alerts and activity. The summary page contains a link of the last known location of that device. The activity page contains a list of reported events, which will direct the user to a map with that location if the link is pressed. On pressing the Activity Map link, the link located inside the activity page, a map will be rendered showing the activity of that particular device with markers. Furthermore, there is an option of choosing how many markers to show on the map within the activity map page. This option will show as much as 50 markers and as few as 5. However, if the amount chosen is greater than the reported amount then the reported amount will only be shown.
