Curve

The Vodafone Smart App (also known as V by Vodafone) is the only app you will need to use Curve.

From this app you can manage your subscription, set up Curve and enjoy all its features.

Download the Vodafone Smart App from the App Store or Google Play

You can connect up to 20 Curves to your account and view each tracker’s activity in the Vodafone Smart App (also known as V by Vodafone).

Curve’s Quick Alert button is a way for the tracker and app to communicate with each other. When you press the button on the tracker for 3 seconds, it sends a location update to the Vodafone Smart App (also known as V by Vodafone app).

To enable Quick Alerts, just go to Device Settings in your Vodafone Smart App and check the box.

Zones are the virtual boundaries you create around a location of your choice. If Curve enters or leaves this area, you will get a notification. You set up your Zones in the Vodafone Smart App (also known as V by Vodafone app).

Please be aware Zone alerts are not always instant and location information relies on the frequency of your chosen tracking mode, as well as GPS signal and Vodafone network coverage to provide updates.

Curve has 4 different modes to choose from, which can improve the speed of location updates and save battery life.

These modes are: Power Save Mode, Everyday Mode, Performance Mode and Real Time Tracking.

Real time tracking means your device will receive location updates from your tracker every 3-5 seconds. Please note real time tracking only works for a maximum of 15 minutes and will result in your battery life reducing faster.

• Power Save Mode: Location updates once every 2 hours
  
• Everyday Mode: Location updates once every 30 minutes
  
• Performance Mode: Location updates once every 5 minutes
  
• Real Time Tracking: Location update once every 3-5 seconds
  All modes are subject to Vodafone network connectivity

Curve’s battery lasts for up to 7 days depending on usage and the tracking mode it’s set to.

Performance Mode: battery lasts up to 3 days
Everyday Mode: battery lasts up to 5 days
Power Save Mode: battery lasts up to 7 days
