How to: Create a Place (Geofence)

Places (Geofences) are useful when wanting to use automatic check-ins and check-outs. This helps eliminate human error in manual entries at work stops and is particularly beneficial for recurring locations, such as head offices or repeat customer sites.

Step 2: Tap on the main menu in the upper left corner.

Step 3: Tap (+) button next to My places

Step 4: In the search bar, enter the location of the Place you want to create.

Step 5: Tap on the location, then select Save to my places.

Step 6: Enter a name for the Place, then tap Ok.

Step 7: Adjust the radius around the Place using the sliding scale, then tap Ok.


Step 8: To create a Place directly from the map, tap with your finger and hold for 3-4 seconds and select Save to my places.

Note: If you are unable to create a Place, please contact the Administrator or Operator of your Hellotracks Business account for further assistance.
