User Manual
The accuracy of the location depends on how Bitdefender is able to determine
it:
● If the GPS is enabled on the device, its location can be pinpointed to within
a couple of meters as long it is in the range of GPS satellites (i.e. not inside
a building).
● If the device is indoors, its location can be determined to within tens of
meters if Wi-Fi is enabled and there are wireless networks available in its
range.
● Otherwise, the location will be determined using only information from the
mobile network, which can offer an accuracy no better than several hundred
meters.
Configuring location & Safe Check-in
To be sure that your child goes to certain locations, you can make a list of
safe and unsafe places. Each time he is entering alone in a predefined area,
a notification will appear in the Parental Control app asking to confirm that
he is safe. By tapping I'VE ARRIVED SAFELY you are informed through a
notification in your Bitdefender account that the final destination has been
reached.
In case no confirmation is given by your child, you are still able to see the
history of his location throughout the day by checking his profile in your
Bitdefender account.
To configure a location:
1. Click Devices in the frame you have in the Child Location window.
2. Click CHOOSE DEVICES, and then select the device you want to configure.
3. In the Areas window, click the ADD AREA button.
4. Choose the type of the location, SAFE or RESTRICTED.
5. Type a valid name for the area where your children have permission to go
or not.
6. Set the range that should be applied for monitoring from the Radius slide
bar.
7. Click ADD AREA to save your settings. You are asked if your children are
going to travel alone or not. Confirm with Yes or No.
