BreezeFSM Mobile Application – Operational Guidelines & Best Practices

1. Platform Dependency Overview

Dependency Area                            Description
GPS & Geo-Fence TechnologyAttendance, visit tracking, geo-fencing, route tracking and kilometer calculations depend on GPS accuracy.
Mobile Device HardwareDevice RAM, processor, GPS chipset, and battery performance affect application behavior.
Internet ConnectivityRequired for synchronization of attendance, visits, orders, collections, and activities.
Operating System BehaviorAndroid and iOS may impose background processing and location restrictions.
User Operating PracticesIncorrect settings or improper usage may impact tracking accuracy and data synchronization.

iOS Platform Considerations

Area                                    Possible Impact                                       
Background TrackingMay vary based on iOS policies
Geo-Fence TriggerMay behave differently across versions
Location RefreshControlled by iOS privacy settings
Battery OptimizationMay affect real-time tracking

For GPS-intensive field operations, Android devices are generally recommended due to greater flexibility in background tracking and location services.


Requirement                                         Recommendation                                            
SPOC (Single Point of Contact)One customer-side SPOC
User TrainingMandatory initial training
Device StandardizationSimilar device categories preferred
Internet AvailabilityStable mobile internet
GPS PermissionsAlways enabled during working hours
Operational DisciplineProper Login, Visit Update & Logout Process

4. Mobile Application Do's & Don'ts

Category                            Recommended (Do's)                                                               Avoid (Don'ts)

Battery ManagementKeep battery above 20%, carry power bank if requiredAllow battery to become critically low
GPS & Location ServicesKeep GPS ON and use High Accuracy ModeTurn OFF GPS during working hours
Location PermissionsAllow "All the Time" Location AccessDeny Location Permissions
Background ActivityAllow background running and Auto StartForce close application
Battery Saver SettingsKeep Battery Saver OFFEnable Battery Saver, Ultra Power Saving, App Sleep
Internet ConnectivityMaintain active internet connectionWork offline for extended periods
Google ServicesKeep Google Maps & Play Services updatedDisable Google Maps or Play Services
Application UpdatesInstall latest versionContinue using outdated version
Daily LoginLogin at beginning of dayDelay attendance login
Daily LogoutLogout properlyExit app without logout
Data SynchronizationSync orders, collections, visits & activities regularlyKeep data unsynchronized
Visit ActivitiesComplete visits with status and remarksLeave visits incomplete
Data EntryEnter accurate customer and transaction dataSubmit incorrect or incomplete information
GPS AccuracyPrefer open areas with good signalOperate from basements, tunnels or poor signal locations
Credentials SecurityKeep credentials confidentialShare credentials
GPS IntegrityUse actual device locationUse Fake GPS or Mock Location Apps
Issue ReportingReport issues immediately with screenshotsIgnore application issues
Device MaintenanceRestart device weeklyKeep device running continuously
Storage ManagementMaintain 5-6 GB free spaceAllow storage to become full

5. Common Operational Challenges

Operational Gap                            Possible Impact                                   
Low Quality DeviceGPS inaccuracy and delayed tracking
Weak Internet ConnectionSynchronization delay
Battery Saver EnabledBackground tracking interruption
Multiple Device TypesInconsistent user experience
Location Permission DisabledAttendance and geo-fence failures
No SPOC CoordinationOperational confusion
Untrained UsersIncreased support dependency

6. GPS & Tracking Dependency Clarification

Dependency Factor                       Potential Impact                          
GPS Signal StrengthTracking accuracy may vary
Mobile Network StabilityDelayed synchronization
Device Hardware QualityGPS performance differences
Android / iOS RestrictionsBackground tracking limitations
User Permission SettingsAttendance and location failures
Indoor UsageReduced GPS accuracy
Battery Optimization PoliciesLocation refresh delays

Important Note

Certain GPS and location-related limitations may remain beyond application-level control because they depend on:

  • Satellite availability

  • Telecom network quality

  • Device hardware capability

  • Operating system restrictions

  • User permission settings
