How Zoombak Works
- Assisted GPS technology is used to identify the location of your Zoombak and can help find your Locator more precisely and accurately than standard GPS alone. In order to maximize the signal strength from the satellites, the Locator should be placed in clear view of the sky.
- In order to communicate the location of your device to you via your mobile phone or Zoombak.com, Zoombak employs mobile phone technology to deliver notifications to you. This is why Zoombak provides a coverage map on its site. If your Zoombak is in an area where there is no mobile phone coverage, it will be difficult for Zoombak to provide a location notification to you.
- Because Zoombak works with GPS and mobile phone technologies, the device is unlikely to be located when it is indoors.
