Anyone know if the Live feature keeps sending data when you are stopped and not receiving a GPS signal, or the smartphone isnt the foreground app?

Also anyone know how much data it sends? just wondering how usable it will be without racking up the bills on the offchance someone might check in.

Thanks
Peter

LIVE will continue sending data on the pre-programmed intervals you set. I think I recall the default is set at 30 mins (or maybe 15). It's not constantly sending data, so data sending is minimal. You shouldn't get through 1mb of data that easily.

LIVE won't send any updates to your position if you don't have a GPS signal because it doesn't have the co-ordinates, so your last position will be recorded and the last time those co-ordinates sent.

So be careful, if you've allowed your other half to track you, and you decide to pop into a pub for an hour on the way home and tell her you got stuck in traffic, she'll see your last known location and the time! Laughing
