What is a geofence on a tracker?

Geofencing is a way to define a geographical zone to track if your vehicles are leaving or entering that zone . With geofencing the system uses the GPS signals from the tracking device to pinpoint location and marks the limits of an area. This ‘area’ is the geo-fence.

A location-based marketing strategy, geofencing technology uses GPS signals to determine when a target customer enters a boundary . Businesses set boundaries around locations where they want to target customers near their physical locations, and they can be set up virtually anywhere.

If your child has an iPhone, you can use Apple’s very own Find My Friends app (on your iPhone) to track down your child and have geofence-based notifications sent to you when they enter or leave a designated area .
