Tips

• The phone must be switched on for the tracking service to work.
• If the owner of the phone or parent, does not want their child or the user to know that their phone is being tracked, keep the mobile until you have downloaded the GPS location-based GPS service onto it. The tracking service often sends an initial text to the mobile saying that it is now monitored by GPS. Delete the text before giving the phone to the user.
• GPS tracking uses up extra battery power so the mobile may need to be charged more often.
