Your device IMEI number is a unique number (usually 15 digits) which can be found on the back of your GPS Tracking device. We also provide the IMEI number (and password) on the 'Quick Start' card accompanying your tracker.
If you're struggling to log in using the IMEI number and password, please raise a ticket using our Help Centre.

Your Tracker Is Live
That's it! Your tracker is now live and the location will be shown on the map.
The location is shown by an icon on the map + the device name (in our example; a paw icon and device name ='Test Tracker').
Please note, the icon and device name may differ, depending on the tracker type you have.
To refresh and recheck your GPS Tracker location click the 'recycle' icon (see green arrow). Remember, the more times you refresh the location, the quicker your battery will run out.
