2. Do not put your phone in "Battery Saving" Mode which may disable GPS location service.

3. If "Data Saver" is turned on, JustPing App needs to be in the list of "Allow app while Data saver on". Otherwise, your family can not locate you.

4. You may not get a response when your family's phone is in Sleep/Doze Mode (e.g. sitting idle for more than an hour without being touched or moved).
