Updated How SOS Works tutorial
We’ve enhanced the SOS tutorial in the ZOLEO app on how to trigger and cancel an SOS, along with some best-practice tips. Upon completing the tutorial, viewers will automatically be prompted to test the SOS feature with our emergency monitoring partner, Global Rescue. We encourage everyone to review the tutorial to brush up on their knowledge of this critical function – even the most seasoned users.
The tutorial is presented the very first time you connect your device to the app. You can also watch the tutorial at anytime by navigating to the Settings tab in the ZOLEO app and selecting Help followed by How Does SOS Work.
Location Share+: Enhanced session control
Good news for those who rely on Location Share+ to share location updates during multi-day trips: users can now turn off their ZOLEO device without ending a location-sharing session and create a continuous breadcrumb trail that spans the duration of the trip, simply by enabling the End Session Manually option.
Sessions will automatically resume once the device is powered on again — no need to start a new one! This enhancement provides even more control and peace of mind, especially for users on extended trips and organizations that track events or projects where a single, continuous breadcrumb trail is required while also conserving battery power.
Location Share+: Persistent settings
For users that share their ZOLEO with others, and organizations that deploy devices to their users, all Location Share+ settings are now stored on the device making it easier to pre-configure your ZOLEO device for others before handing it off.
The ZOLEO app, will even let you know if your Location Share+ settings have changed the next time you connect to the device and give you the option to view your current settings.
Support for Landscape Orientation
The ZOLEO app can now be displayed in landscape orientation for those using devices with screens ranging from 7-13 inches (18-33 centimeters). A useful feature for those who connect their ZOLEO devices to tablets in vehicles, aircraft or vessels.
