The Exiting alarm email contains the following information:
* Distance outside guard zone (feet/meters)

If you choice to send email notices you must have a Gmail account. It also requires your Gmail password.
Call phone option is not available on Android 8.0 devices.

The app includes Battery Saver technology. This technology reduces the GPS refresh rate when you boat is sitting still. When your boat exits the guard zone or is moving quickly on the hook the GPS refresh rate is increased to give you quicker notifications of changes. Battery Saver will also reduce GPS refresh rate when the battery is getting low.

The app also includes Smart Memory Manager technology which monitors the app’s memory usage and reduces it if required. First it will remove old drift paths. If more reduction is still required, the app will turn off Google Maps and use the non-map display. If even more reduction is required, the app will turn off all map display and run with no display.
