WiaTag

With setting on "standard" is anyone able to provide me with a "general/indication" of the data volume used based on a 12 hour day.

Realise a number of variables need to be taken into account, so just a rough idea is all we need based on above, this would be very helpful.

Thanks.

Hi there

We faced a problem with last version of WiaTag. We set data collection to continues mode and data sending continues mode. But, the application doesn't send data automatically. collect data and store in black-box and user have to press black-box unload button.

If other partners faced same problem please share here.

Gurtam guys please check

Regarding your previous question on MDM software:

The aim of the mass market mobile devices and operating systems is to secure customer’s daily device usage. Hence we, as an application developer, won’t be able to:

- force the device to be turned on if it is charged
- prevent uninstall
- force share of device’s location
- force open of the application
- ‘hide’ the application

The functionality requested does not lie in the domain of WiaTag, or any other application in that matter. Hence, Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution is indeed sounds as what you are asking for.

We have discovered one thing that would be a valuable enhancement.

When staff member used for a short trip of about 2km (on foot) and turned WiaTag off upon return, it still showed them located 400m from office.

Standard setting was chosen for mode. As black box was not due to upload messages at the time they remained in black box.

Maybe it would benefit with automatically send all messages on turning off.....?

Yes this was the initial thought but we must look at from customer perspective.....not good if they need to rely on their workers to do it manually.

Hi there

Is it interested for other partners if Gurtam add an option to WiaTag sending LBS data even while user disabled GPS from Android setting?
Most of customers asked us such a function.

Hi Hamed,

as some alternative way user can set up Wia Tag app with required settings on phone, then use option "Share Configuration" ("Remote control" - "Share configuration" ) to copy JSON configuration in file

Yes, I would have to agree Wolf, we too are having difficulty in finding a simple solution workaround for end-users. Usually end-users have limited tech understanding, that's why they come to us after all.

Over the weekend I looked at what the "Share configuration" in-app option did, thinking that maybe it sent/exported a configuration file that could be emailed....didn't appear to do anything as nothing was attached to the email - then even it one was how is end-user to utilise? Maybe we do it wrong....?

Are still promoting GPS Tag as it is a lot more user-friendly, to promote WiaTag I fear will potentially create extra strain on our tech resources unnecessarily.

ideally we wish to actively promote WiaTag as appearance alone presents better marketing as also additional benefits over GPSTag.

Hi wwbusch aka Buwo,

We do test on multiple Andriod devices. Please, contact development@gurtam.com with more details on the problem as messages should be sending in a default config. The same applies to the documentation: please tell us more about the places that confused you.

Many thanks for the active participation, Wolf.
No offense taken, throw more!

Pavel, did you test already with IOS11? Since IOS11 i get a total anoying blue notification bar in the top of the phone which tells me all the time that WiaTag is using the location. I also did not find any place to disable this warnings...

Any idea?

Wolf.

Hi Ashkan, did it do before and you only upgraded?
How did you configure it? Default Config? Standard? Active? Do you see messages in the Blackbox? What happens if you click to "unload the blackbox"?

Or did it happend after update? Did you check the new version which came yesterday into play store?

In General we found that "smartmode" on devices without good 3G sensor is working bad. So better switch it to GPS mode.

Wolf.
