Your iOS mobile device can be transformed into GPS device with GPS Tracker application which can be downloaded from Apple App Store.
How to start using my mobile device as GPS device?
- Download GPS Tracker application from Apple App Store
- Install and start application on your device
- After application starts it will ask for device IMEI, you can find it on the back cover of device or in “Settings/General/About”
- Send your IMEI number, vehicle plate number and your vehicle nick name to ottopoika@2cv.fi. I will add your device details to tracking server. I will confirm when device is added. After it you can take next step.
- Make sure GPS and Internet connection is activated on device
- In GPS Tracker application go to “Settings” and select correct “Server” where your account was created (we use server1).
- Click “Start tracking” in GPS Tracker application
- Wait for the device to get a satellite fix, this can take some time (and is best achieved outdoors with clear sky);
After some minutes you will see location of your device;
If you want better battery life, set the tracking interval to at least 60-120 seconds. Its good to keep your device charging when you are driving.
