The GizmoPal app
Location information
The location of the GizmoPal wristband is primarily determined using
Google’s GPS location service. If unsuccessful, the GizmoPal app will
attempt to locate the GizmoPal wristband using a different method.
#
When the GizmoPal is located in a place where GPS or Wi-Fi isn’t
available (or if the GizmoPal is turned off), the GizmoPal app won’t be
able to display location information.
#
Location information may be unavailable, inaccurate, or incomplete
depending on your surroundings. Note that location information may
take up to 3 minutes to become available.
#
A location error of up to several miles can occur.
#
If the GizmoPal is indoors, the location can be inaccurate or unavailable.
NOTE
The Wi-Fi connection for this GizmoPal is reception only. (There is no Wi-Fi signal
transmission.)
