You can enter all of your device's information in this dialog.

  • Name (required): the name of your device.
  • Color: the color associated with the device to help distinguish it.
  • Type (required): the type determines which actions your device will have enabled by default. These actions can be added or removed later using the edit function.
    • Mobile App: this is the option you need if you transmit location data using the official Onloc Android app. This enables the ring, lock and flash actions.
    • Tracker: this does not enable any actions. It is useful for basic trackers that only emit locations without receiving any command.
