Troubleshooting

I can't log into the app, what could be the reason?

Possible reasons why you can't log in to the app could be that:

  • You have an old version of the app. Check in the App Store or Google Play that you are using the latest version.
  • The phone has poor mobile coverage. Check that you can access the internet from your phone. If you are connected to WiFi, check that the WiFi network is working. You can also try turning off WiFi.
  • The subscription for your account has expired. Log in to "my pages" to check the status of your subscriptions.
Why don't I see positions from the GPS tracker in the app?

Possible reasons why you are not receiving any positions from the GPS tracker could be that:

  • The battery in the device is dead and needs to be charged.
  • The tracker has no GPS or mobile reception. Try to start the tracker in a place with good GPS and mobile reception before letting the dog loose.
  • The telematics subscription for the tracker has expired. Log in to "my pages" to check the status of your subscriptions.
Why can't I see a shared GPS tracker on the map?

If the owner of the tracker enables "Private Mode" under device settings, it will only be visible to the owner (and people with admin code). It will thus be hidden from other members of the same team or people who have the device shared via a view code.

Why can't I see the hunting area linked to the Team I'm in?

To show hunting areas on the map, you must activate it under the map menu at the top right of the map. First, activate Hunting areas under the heading Show. Then activate the hunting area linked to the Team.

Why can't I see my own location in the app?

Possible reasons why you do not see your own position could be:

  • You have not approved location access for the app. Check permissions for the Lafayette GPS app under settings on your phone.
  • You have "Show my location" disabled in the context menu of the app.
