will be available inside the information pop up right above the device marker
icon.

battery percentage left, and the longitude and latitude location of the device.
Note: The device location may be based on the cellular network signal
(GSM location), in cases where the device cannot receive proper GPS
signals from the GPS satellites, for example indoors. This location is not
accurate, but rather an approximation of the device location.
If GPS location is not available, the location will be
based on GSM location and text will appear in the
device location information area notifying you that
the location is based on the cellular network. A blue
halo will also surround the tracking marker notifying
you that the location is approximate, as shown in the

the device location, Trackimo will attempt to approximate the location using the
mobile network signals to the device.
If the device is unreachable for 60 seconds during the location update process,
the system will notify the user with an information notification. Reasons that the
device may be unreachable may include; the device being turned off, the device
is out of battery, and the device is in an area that does not have cell phone
reception.
