Currently its 'MVP'

The product does that its supposed to do for sure, it does Minimal Viable Product (MVP). It however needs alot more attention to User Interface.
By example... There are three very important variables in the setup screen; frequency, distance and angle. The user interface leaves you guessing what these are for - I speculated they refer to the reporting schedule - but are we talking ms, sec, hours, days..... are we talking mm, metres, miles, lightyears, are we talking N, S, E, W... are we talking 1 degree, 10 degrees... etc.?

What does offline buffering actually mean? supports 3 days of offline tracking or 3 mins? Maybe its 1000 events, maybe its 10... The point here is we are left guessing and maybe it could all be fixed in an about screen?

The 'Send SoS' - interesting feature but where does it get sent? Is it to the Traccar server? is it to an SMS location?, etc....

Another thing that would make for a better approach. In the logs, it would be better if the newest entries were at the top, not the bottom. If we are trying to diagnose something, you may have to scroll and scroll and scroll to get to the issue you are trying to replicate.

Unable to demo

Unique reason to drop cost and track certain items privately. Cannot demo to team using the mobile application. DOA. Web gui works but cannot add iOS app devices nothing happens
