Sending a check-in message is easy. Check-in messages include your GPS location and a link that shows your location on a map. Check-in's are always UNLIMITED and FREE with a paid subscription!
Using your Bivy Stick:

On the device, press the Check-in (check mark) button.
-
The status light will start to blink yellow.
-
The status light will continue to blink yellow until the message sends.
Note: If the signal light goes off before your message sends, you can quickly press the power button to wake up the modem so that it will continue to look for a signal and send your message.
Using the App:
-
In the app, you can press "Send Check-in"
on the Stick screen.
** When you send a check-in message the recipient will receive a message from your Bivy Stick number that will contain the message, your GPS coordinates, and a URL link where they can view your location or live track (if you have initiated tracking).
