The dashboard is your summary view of everything going on with Jiobit. This view will look different whether your child is with you or away from you.
Depending on your Jiobit’s whereabouts, a status bar will appear at the top of your dashboard. Learn how your Jiobit is connected to a signal, and how it is displaying location information.
Something to note: When the Jiobit is receiving poor cell reception, due to environmental factors or external damage (See Jiobit Connection Interference), the Jiobit battery will drain faster due to the increased work to send a location update.
If your Jiobit is damaged it should be replaced to avoid malfunction: Replace My Old or Damaged Jiobit
TRACKING
The Jiobit will use GPS, Wi-Fi, and/or cellular networks to provide location updates when outside of a Trusted Place and away from you or the Care Team.
WITH YOU AT HOME
This status means that the Jiobit is connected to your phone via Bluetooth. During this time the app is relying on your phone’s carrier and GPS signals to update the app.
HOME
If the Jiobit is not “with you” or connected to Bluetooth but is still located within your primary Trusted Place, the Jiobit status will indicate it is at "Home.”
CONNECTING TO JIOBIT
If the Jiobit is in a poor coverage area or something is blocking the signal to the device, the app may display the message CONNECTING TO JIOBIT. While the Jiobit works to establish an updated location, it will display the last known location reported to our servers.
RESERVED BATTERY
When battery levels are below 5%, the Jiobit will display a “Reserved Battery” message. While the app will display the last known location of the device, you will not be able to access Live Mode for step-by-step tracking until the Jiobit is charged.
In this mode the only connection that can be made to the device is a Bluetooth connection.
LIVE MODE
Click the sun icon or pull down the card to switch to Live Mode for real-time tracking.
BLUETOOTH ALERT ON
This status indicates the Jiobit’s “ virtural leash" is on, and that the Jiobit is tethered to the phone through a Bluetooth connection.

PHONE DOESN’T HAVE INTERNET
