Greetings, mary191. Let me share some details about how the location tracking feature works.

 

The Always vs. Only option for location tracking is designed to ensure the accuracy and effectiveness of the app, especially when location-dependent features need to function seamlessly, even when the app isn’t actively open. This approach is necessary for apps that rely on real-time location data to work efficiently, even when the app is not actively in use.

 

We understand your employees’ concerns, but please rest assured that their privacy and security are protected. The app uses location data only for what’s needed to support its features.
