After using this for a few days, I uninstalled it. The daemon it also installs runs my battery empty in 4 hours.

Then you are obviously using it wrong. My battery lasts just as long as it did before, and I just made my donation.

I have been using this for a couple of days on my iPhone and my wifes iPhone, so far it works like it is suppose to. I did have to change it from updating every 15 minutes as that did cause the batter level to drain faster.

I actually have the location set to off and check in with the server every hour. when I need to find one of the phones I go to the website and turn tracking on, send a txt msg to have the location sent to me and turn it off. Works great and I love being able to see the battery level on the website.

As for making it to where the theif can't turn it off, just use SBSettings to hide the icon and no-one will know it is installed.

Also I had to turn off notify friends since I was getting constant txt msg's that my wife's iPhone was next to me and the same on hers.

Check the settings and tweek them to your liking. I would at least install it and turn off the location service to save power, then change the connection frequency to the max which is an hour I believe. That way if your phone is stolen or lost you just go to the website and turn on tracking.

The one thing I would like updated is when you send the txt msg to the phone "COMMAND LOCATE" and the gps cordonates are sent back, it should be linked to google maps app. As of now I have to go to maps.google.com and enter the two numbers.

Hi. Has anyone else had this problem.. Turned my iphone off when I went to bed last night (which i don't normally do) and when I came down this morning and went to switch it back on again the battery was flat. Thought it was a little odd, and assumed that I had not turn it off after all. But this evening I turned it off again and then about 15 mins later I saw it turn back on again

Is this because the daemon is still running and powering the iphone on to connect to the ilocalis server?

iphone has just been JB and ilocalis and BossPrefs are the only apps that I have installed since

Anyone help please.

Thanks

That's a point actually - I've turned my iPhone off for flights a couple of times recently, and when I went to switch it back on, found that it was on already!!


I've also noticed that my iPhone is running a touch more sluggishly with iLocalis installed. I've turned off the tracking, figuring I can just turn it on remotely if my iPhone ever went missing, so the battery drain isn't too bad, but the slowdown is making some apps a bit flaky.


I really love the concept of this app, and the peace of mind it brings, but to be honest I think I'm probably not going to keep it too much longer - I don't want my phone's usability to be compromised.

What I have noticed now is that if you have the front end app installed and not hidden then it seems to be OK and when switched off it stays off.. its just when the app is hidden via bossprefs or if you uninstall the front end. This I guess is something I hope the creator of the app is aware of this possible problem with the app

I have turned off tracking and set the updated to 30mins. not really noticed much slow down, but then again I dont really have too many other JB apps installed. I have seen a slightly reduced battery

Is it a trial version or do you have to donate to use it at all?

[johnrs]

Its a 10 day trial and then you donate to keep your access to the server side of things. Depending on your donation you either get Basic or Premium, but with both your get 1 years access.

Now the odd thing is I access the tracking from my Mac book last night and changed setting and it seems that when I turned off my iphone it stayed off..

odd

Great app thought and even with the power back of thing I will be keeping it
