Mobile: GPS Tracking

How location tracking works when you clock in and out on mobile

Applies to: Workforce · Premium · LawBillity (mobile app)

If your admin has enabled GPS tracking, the app records your location when you start and stop a timer or clock in and out. Look for the GPS pin icon in the top-right corner of the New Time Entry screen — if it is visible, GPS tracking is active.

How It Works

  • When you start a timer or clock in, the app captures your GPS coordinates.
  • When you stop the timer or clock out, it captures your coordinates again.
  • Your admin can view these locations in the GPS Report on the web.
  • The On the Clock screen includes a "Tap to see Map for All users" link that shows the location of all currently clocked-in employees on a map.

Location Permission

For GPS tracking to work, you must grant the app location permission:

Platform

How to Enable

iOS

Settings > Privacy > Location Services > Time Tracker > set to "While Using the App" or "Always"

Android

Settings > Apps > Time Tracker > Permissions > Location > Allow

Note: If you are having trouble with GPS accuracy, step outside and away from tall buildings. Indoor locations, tunnels, and dense urban areas can degrade GPS accuracy.
