Best Practices
Scanning
Dedicated Scanning Device: Use a dedicated scanning device such as a Bluetooth scanner or a ruggedized device that has a dedicated scanner built-in. Camera scanning takes a picture of the barcode, then attempts to translate the image of the barcode into text. This process is considerably slower and less accurate (especially in low light situations).
Bluetooth Scanner Configuration: When using a Bluetooth scanner, configure the soft keyboard to be closed. A scanner emulates an external keyboard and it is possible to type on the keyboard while scanning to inject extra characters by mistake.
Device Volume: Turn up the volume on your device all the way and remove any headphones or connected Bluetooth audio devices to ensure you hear the alerts.
Mobile Tracking
Critical: Always keep the Driver App in the foreground, even when using turn-by-turn directions. You can always put your directions behind the Driver App and they will still verbally and visually alert you.
Autolock: Configure Autolock to “Never”, this prevents your device from locking after a period of inactivity.
WiFi/Bluetooth: Enable WiFi and Bluetooth, this will accelerate GPS location information and accuracy.
Minimize Phone Conversations: Keep phone conversations to a minimum, some cellular carriers disable data while you are talking on the phone, severing data connectivity that the Driver App relies on to transmit information to and from your
Operations App instance.
Location Services: Enable Location Services on the device for the Driver App to report the location of the driver. The Driver App will prompt drivers upon login if this service is disabled.
Driver Active Status on Dashboard: Logging into the Driver App does not automatically activate the Driver on the Dispatch Board. Drivers who have the permission enabled on their Driver record are able to log themselves in and out of the Dispatch Board. Go to the Profile page, and make sure the toggle switch next to “Checked In” is green.
