One great feature of your Tractive GPS tracker is that you can be notified immediately if your pet leaves the Virtual Fence (a predetermined safe area). You can also receive other notifications, such as when the battery is low or when a member of Customer Service has replied to your request for support.
Notifications are displayed in the app itself, via push notifications on your smartphone and per email. If you are having any issues with receiving notifications, please follow the tips in this article.
Extreme Weather Notifications:
If tomorrow's forecast at your pet's location predicts unusually extreme heat or cold, we'll let you know the day before. That way you can plan ahead — move walks to the cooler parts of the day, bring water along, or keep outdoor time short.
Note: These alerts are based on the weather forecast for your pet's location, not on your tracker's own temperature. They're a heads-up so you can take precautions, not a health or medical warning. If you're concerned about how your pet is coping with the weather, contact your vet.
Customize your Notification Settings:
You can customize your notification settings in the Tractive GPS app by going to Account > Notifications.
The Tracker On/Off notification is only available if using our latest Dog and Cat tracker models.
