Turn your phone into a GPS tracking device with the GSatTrack mobile companion app. This app works with your GSatTrack account to track the location of this mobile device on your GSatTrack web portal. Set your reporting interval, turn on background tracking, and you’re good to go. This app also supports two-way messaging between this device and the web portal. Features Track your location: this app automatically sends the location of this mobile device to your GSatTrack account. Custom tracking intervals: from as little as every 30 seconds to as much as every 30 minutes, you can set your tracking interval in the settings to balance accuracy requirements and maximize battery life. Emergency check-in: this app allows you to send an emergency notification to the GSatTrack portal that will show up in the web interface as an alert. Standard check-in: check-in outside of your normal reporting interval with a button that immediately sends the device’s location with a special status note that you’ve checked in. Two-way messaging: whenever your phone is connected to a network, you can send messages to the GSatTrack web portal and receive replies. Additional Notes: This app requires a GSatTrack account in order to work, and connecting this mobile device as a tracking device on your account will incur any charges or license fees you have established with your GSatTrack provider for mobile devices. This app does not allow you to view the information you would normally see in the GSatTrack web portal. Please access your tracking data through your preferred browser.
