inViu routes – the GPS app for Android is updated for even more features
The GPS tracking app with reliable GPS tracking and geofencing was
designed for companies with mobile employees, for transport and logistics
companies, or for vehicle or equipment rental companies
More than 15,000 users have installed inViu routes on their smartphones or
tablets.
The app optimizes field service operations as well as centralizing and
documenting the exchange of messages and of course for locating employees and
assets.
For the low price of € 9.90 per month with a hardware costs starting at less
than € 150 makes inViu routes an indispensable tool for all companies with
mobile workers.
The new unveiled Version 3.9 brings a variety of useful innovations
Monitor trackables right on your phone
For an on-the-go overview simply enter your ENAiKOON iD in the app and all
of the locations and the routes for your trackables are viewable in a sortable
list with timestamps and descriptions and of course they are also viewable on
the map.
Route planning
In addition to the route recording of your own route, the app calculates the
optimal route to a specific location like a trackable, POI, GPS photo, address
of a phonebook contact and also any selected position on the map. Both the
start point and the destination can be freely chosen.
In addition if the user has a navigation app installed on their phone then
any destination, either saved or selected, can be used directly from inViu
routes in the navigation app.
Useful widgets for shortcuts to features
The latest version has come up with five new widgets for faster access to
certain app features.
Route planner – Displays the target address, distance to target,
time required to reach target, and the estimated time of arrival.
Take picture – Opens the camera to take a GPS photo with the
current GPS position
Create POI – Creates a POI with the current GPS position
Route recording toggle – Starts and stops route recording
Parking spot – Clicking on this button quickly saves any location,
such as your parking spot for your vehicle. View its location later in inViu
routes when you need to find your vehicle.
Customisable menu bar display
This innovative feature allows for the designing of various screens and formats
on a phone and tablet. inViu routes is the only routes app offering this level
of customization
A click on the app icon provides access to the main functions of the app,
the icons for the features are located in one of the menu bar and can be
reached by clicking on the overflow icon. Each icon can be dragged into a menu
bar and removed again, the order can be changed at any time.
You can choose between one or two menu bars, with or without displaying the
icons info as well as defining where main features of the app are accessed. If
you want to use your own icons, you can replace it with a long click on any
icon.
For example it makes more sense to display the menu bar horizontally in
landscape mode and vertically in portrait mode. Since a tablet is held with two
hands the menu bar with access to all important features can be at the bottom
of the screen while for a smaller phone it is more useful to have access at the
top of the screen.
GPS power saving mode
Now the app can define the time between two GPS readings in order to
lengthen battery life. The GPS power saving mode can be deactivated while
charging or above defined battery percentage.
Leisure mode
Great for businesses that employ mobile workers, this feature allows the GPS
tracking of employees during working hours only. This way the mobile phone can
be used for both work and personal use. More details on this special feature in
a subsequent blog post!
