Overview:
Enabling Location Services allows the Traction Enterprise mobile app to provide advanced features such as location-based notifications, GPS coordinates for photos, and distances from field boundaries. Turning off Location Services disables all of the above features and is therefore not recommended.
Requirements:
- The Traction Enterprise mobile app downloaded on your iOS or Android mobile device.
- Login to Traction Enterprise Mobile App using the login credentials set up for you.
Answer:
To control Location Services, Traction Enterprise Business offers two Power Modes:
- High Accuracy Mode
- Battery Saver Mode
You can access settings related to Location Services by tapping the More tab, then selecting Settings in the Traction Enterprise mobile app.
High Accuracy Mode
This mode enables all features related to Location Services and is the recommended setting for best accuracy. In High Accuracy Mode, your device can alert you of relevant notifications even when the application is running in the background.
Note: In High Accuracy Mode, iOS users might notice a blue notification bar at the top of their screen while Traction Enterprise is running in the background.
Battery Saver Mode
This mode reduces mobile device battery consumption by only enabling Location Services when the App is running in the foreground. As such, in Battery Saver Mode, you may have reduced accuracy of Location Based notifications and GPS coordinates of photos.
