Location Tracking profiles

Select Enable Location Tracking to enable or disable location tracking.

Define how often the device location should be updated. Shorter intervals provide more frequent updates but can increase battery consumption.

You can choose from the following options in the Interval dropdown: 

• 5 minutes
• 15 minutes
• 30 minutes
• 1 hour
• 3 hours
• 6 hours
• 12 hours
• 24 hours

NOTE  The device must be online in order for location data to update.

Choose how accurately the device location is tracked.

You can choose from the following options:

• Balanced: Balanced mode updates the device's location only during significant movement (~500m). This option uses less battery than Precise mode.
• Precise: Precise mode provides higher location accuracy at the cost of increased battery usage on tracked devices.
