Location and notification permissions

PathPilot uses your location only while a run is active. It needs it for arrival alerts and for turn-by-turn directions, even with the screen off or another app open. On company runs, your company sees your latest position while PathPilot is open on your screen. We never sell your location.

The first time you start a run

PathPilot shows Allow location while you drive and explains why. Tap Allow location, then answer your phone:

• On iPhone, choose Allow While Using App, then Change to Always Allow.
• On Android, allow location while using the app, then choose Allow all the time.

Tap Not now to skip. The run still works, but arrival alerts may not.

Notifications are needed for arrival alerts too. When your phone asks, choose Allow.

If arrival alerts are off

PathPilot shows Arrival alerts are off and what's missing. Tap Open Settings to go straight to PathPilot's settings on your phone.

On iPhone:

1. In Settings, open PathPilot, then Location.
2. Choose Always and keep Precise Location on.
3. Go back and turn on Notifications.

On Android:

1. In Settings, open PathPilot's permissions, then Location.
2. Choose Allow all the time and turn on Use precise location.
3. Turn on Notifications.

Stop sharing your location with your company

During a company run, a pill shows "Sharing location with" and your company's name. Tap it for details. To stop sharing, turn off location for PathPilot in your phone's Settings. Your run keeps working, but arrival alerts and directions need location.

Daily reminder emails

To get a daily email of your runs, open Settings in the app, turn on Daily email digest under Notifications and pick a Digest time. Send test reminder sends one now so you can check it arrives.
