User Interface Overview
Device Settings
The Ping smartphone app allows you to configure
the settings for each device individually. To view the
settings for any device, first select the device from the
“My Devices” page (Img 14.1). Next, from the device
page (Img 14.2), select the settings icon located in
the upper right hand corner of the page. Then, when
prompted (Img 14.3), select one of the menu options:
1. Device Configuration. From this menu you can:
- Assign or update the device name and image
associated with the device.
- Enable & disable Privacy Mode and Airplane Mode
- Enable & disable Check-in & SOS functions on
the device
- Remove the Ping device from your account. This
will allow the Ping to be paired to another account
and smartphone.
2. Data Plans & Global Coverage. This menu allows
you to select a dataplan and add global coverage.
As previously mentioned, users in the United States,
Canada, and Mexico will receive the first year of the
dataplan free. You can save money by prepaying for
year 2 or save even more by prepaying for 3 years.
3. Advanced Settings. From this menu you can view
your device’s firmware version and check for firmware
updates. If a firmware update is available, you will have
the option to update from this menu. Additionally, you
can send logs to the Ping technical support team (if
requested to do so).
