You do not always need a special GPS tracker to track movements of mobile employees. In most cases, you can turn an Android or iOS-based mobile phone into a beacon. To do this, install the X-GPS Tracker app on your smartphone. It uses the phone geo-location service to track movements. Coordinates are read via the GPS satellite network to determine the exact location of a person as accurately as possible. If there is no satellite communication signal, the device uses the GSM network of cellular operators or Wi-Fi. To start the tracking, simply follow the below process.
