Version 4.2 worked like a charm. Version 5.0 doesn't work anymore. Re-installs didn't help either. Battery is above 90%. Default settings used, except Traccar server After install the dialog to grant permission to access GPS shows up immediately but too short to be answered. Needed to use privacy settings to permit Traccar client to access GPS Service stops right after the phone goes to sleep, i.e. requiring the PIN to re-gain access. The fact that the service stopped is not shown (updated) in the app settings dialog (looks like service is still active). Deactivating and activating the service makes the game to start over. iPhone 6s, iOS 10.3.3

Hi

Using the source code for iOS from the website, the location does not update. However, if I use the app store release, it does. Does anyone know why this is, or what I am doing wrong? I'm probably doing something wrong (more likely, I'm very tired!)

Thanks

Run low accuracy location updates, so update is not called every second. Then in callback request high accuracy location.

Suggested by Apple engineer.

Hi

Not sure if this a defect or future proofed but the latest iOS client always seems to send batt=0 at the end of the query string.

Is this a placeholder for when battery level is supported or is this a defect?

Also quick question - if i increase the interval will it save battery? or is the GPS always on (and therefore draining) and just transmits at the interval provided?

Thanks

And great app btw!

Hello Anthon I have a problem when I open the Safary explorer to show the window of the devices, reports and states. When I click on any of them, the tab does not open. you have some suggestion that you can help me. In windows it works well. Thank you

If cellular data is turned on, I get beautiful tracking from this app. However, I'm not on an unlimited data plan, and while it's not especially verbose I tried to turn it off for the app (I still have a connection).

When in this mode, it seems to drop everything up until I get to home or work and have a wifi connection again.

This doesn't seem to be intended behavior that I have been able to determine, but possibly a side effect of iOS's ability to deny cell data to specific apps.

Though I have not had a chance to test it personally, I expect that it would work fine for tracking in places where cell coverage is nil.

Describe the bug After updating from v4.9 to v5.2 and start using modern UI, I can not keep the login status in the mobiles app. Each start of app requires sign-in again.

This affect to push notifications because since update I loose all of them except if you open the app and inmidiately trigger a "Test message" notification.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. In the phone: Open official iOS app v2.10
2. In a computer: click on "Test message", you receive in the mobile one test notification: push and web.
3. In the phone: Minimize the app and wait 30 minutes... or more
4. Click again on "Test message", you will not receive any test notification: push or web.

Expected behavior The app should keep open the login status and receive notifications despite you open or close the app

Hello, Is there any way to get the app to install via Cydia? Because Apple will not let me install the Traccar on an Iphone 4, since the IOS of it is 7.xxx

Not sure whether related to my iPhone X, but i'm experiencing these problems on the iOS Client:

• Only reports location if App is running in the background (I.E app has been clicked on since reboot, and not closed) If i remove it from recently opened apps, then it stops reporting my location. Should it not be reporting data entirely in the background?

• No Speed / Heading data being sent. Only Location.

Hi, I am new to IOS. I am trying to run client app in xcode but i am getting this error. inappsettingskit/IASKappsettingviewcontroller.h file not found In TCMainViewController.h file

please give a solution

Hi I tried default setting with server address: demo.traccar.org server port : 5005 frequency: 5 I am seeing "send failed" in the client logs.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I downloaded the iOS client and wasn't sure if the frequency was seconds or minutes. The default of 300 made me think seconds. The distance is empty, so I had no idea. I realize there's documentation (https://www.traccar.org/blog/traccar-client-4-2/), but the client could have saved me the googling.

Describe the solution you'd like Add units in parenthesis next to the client setting name (e.g. Distance (m))

Describe alternatives you've considered N/A

Additional context N/A

Currently the iOS client reports a "Battery level" data (0..100%). I propose to add a binary "Battery charging" flag support. The flag is supposed to be "true/false", "yes/no", "charging/discharging" or "1/0".

Would it be possible to allow support by the iOS Shortcuts app, specifically automation routines? I'd like to be able to toggle the client on/off based on Geolocation (i.e. turn Traccar off if I'm going outside a certain zone) OR based on a schedule (i.e. turn Traccar off after 9 PM and back on at 6 AM).

Our non-profit organization utilizes traccar extensively, but we collaborate with other organizations that use traccar as well. It would be useful if traccar clients could store multiple server settings. At first a simple drop down list of servers and maybe later multiple profiles so that all settings could be unique to servers.

I wish I could contribute myself, I just don't have any IOS products other than my phone.

Thanks

I just stumbled over LocoKit, a LGPL licensed iOS framework to track positional data.

Given its maturity and features, consider using it as base for the Traccar iOS client. It might help to increase tracking precision, reduce battery draining and maybe work around the background execution issues reported occasionally.
