# Field Tracking

## Overview

Field Tracking is designed to monitor the location and activity of employees who work outside a traditional office setting. This ensures visibility, safety, and accountability for remote and field-based teams.

## Supported Platforms

* **Mobile App**: Fully supported on iOS and Android devices. Field tracking relies on the mobile application to provide location updates.
* **Desktop Agent (Standard Mode)**: The Standard desktop app also includes built-in location tracking, extending whereabouts visibility beyond mobile-only field teams to desktop endpoints on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

## Capabilities

By utilizing background tracking capabilities on the mobile device, We360.ai can map a user's geographical movement throughout their working shift.

* **Real-time Location:** Administrators and managers can view the real-time whereabouts of their field employees directly via the admin web dashboard.
* **Location History:** Location streams are synced to provide historical pathways and timeline data, allowing managers to review routes taken during a shift.
* **Offline Reliability**: The mobile app is designed to work asynchronously. If a user enters an area with poor or no network connectivity during a field assignment, the location data is safely stored locally on the device. Once an internet connection is restored, the data is automatically synced to the dashboard, ensuring no tracking information is lost.
