You will be able to share your Karoo 2's live location with your family and friends during a ride. They do not need a Hammerhead account to view your location.
Prerequisites:
-
Your Karoo 2 must have an active internet connection
(Cellular SIM card installed and activated or a Wi-Fi connection through an active HotSpot) - Karoo 2 only supports cellular SIM Cards. Data SIM cards will not be supported. Click here to see how to install a SIM Card in your Karoo 2
- The other party must have the unique tracking URL.
Here are the steps to turn on Live Tracking:
- On the Home screen, click on the "Settings" app.
- Scroll down and tap on "Live Tracking".
- Toggle the Button On to enable Live Tracking.
- A unique link will be generated and sent to your email address linked to your Hammerhead account.
Opening the link will show you the Live Location of the unit.
Notes:
- You can share this link with others to track your ride. The location is updated every 30 seconds.
- This link remains valid for your Hammerhead Account until the Live tracking feature is turned off on your Karoo 2.
- The old link expires as soon as you turn off the Live location feature on your Karoo 2.
- A new unique link will be generated every time you re-enable the feature under Settings.
- Wi-Fi will be turned off for battery savings when starting a ride and you may turn it back on using the Control Center after starting a ride.
