Simple Tracker is a simple app to track the routes taken by your children, husbands, wives, relatives or employees, couriers etc. The Simple Tracker application combines two interfaces - for the Parent ("Controlling") and for the Child ("Controlled") - switching is carried out during the Login process in the application. For the application to work: The basis of the system for monitoring and recording route information is based on the voluntary use of the application by people who are monitored. "Controlled" itself adds its controller - by entering the Identification number or scanning the QR code containing the Identification number. That is: while the application is running - control is exercised, when the application is completely closed (Terminated) - there is no control. Also, the "Controlled" has the opportunity at any time to check who controls him and remove the "Controller". The main idea of the application is that parents have the opportunity to immediately see the route of their child. Application work: To use the application, you must be authorized, give access to tracking the geolocation of the device from the Child (it is recommended to set "Always" (Settings -> Privacy -> Location Services -> Simple Tracker), add a Parent(!) in the Child interface, the tracked Child will appear in the Parent's interface. Authorization available: by mobile phone number by email, via appleId. The application interface for the Child has the following functionality: display of the current geolocation (on the map), adding tracking Parent, view the list of tracking Parents, deleting tracking Parent. The Simple Tracker for Baby app must be running and can be hidden in the background. !Authorization must be passed. !!Attention, if the Application in the interface mode for the Child is closed (terminated), then the application will not function! The application interface for the Parent has the following functionality: Tracking the last loaded location (when the app is in child interface mode - that is, it is in (foreground or background) mode), View the route taken by the Child for the previous 30 days. A parent can track multiple children (the current version is limited to 5 devices).
