Access and Control
We strongly recommend that you share the control of each
Yepzon with at least one other smartphone or tablet, since if
control of a Yepzon is only via one phone and that phone is
lost or damaged, the Yepzon cannot be paired with another
phone without resetting it first (see the section on Reset).

Example 1: Mary pairs a Yepzon with her iPhone. She also
shares the control to her old Android phone without NFC
functionality. One day her iPhone is broken. She takes the
Android phone, removes the access rights from the broken
iPhone, and shares them via email to her brand new Win-
dows Phone.

Location
To locate a Yepzon, open the App and tap “Locate.” The App
will show you the status of the device and ask if you want to
start locating it. If you agree, the location request is sent to
the Yepzon the next time it connects
to the server. If you cancel, the request will not be sent. The
map view will anyway show both your own location and the
last known (GSM base station) location of the Yepzon. At the
same time, the top of the screen will display the time remain-
ing before the Yepzon will connect to the server, receive the
location request, and start satnav detection.

Yepzon uses a network of GSM base stations and GPS
satnav to determine its location. If the device is indoors, or
if the GPS signal is not strong enough, the GPS location
data may not be received. In this case, an accurate loca-
tion cannot be determined via GPS.

if the GPS signal is not strong enough, the GPS location
data may not be received. In this case, an accurate loca-
tion cannot be determined via GPS.
However, the location request will also activate the Yepzon’s
Bluetooth transmitter. If the Yepzon is within the range of
a Bluetooth signal (<50m), the phone (only Android and
iOS) will inform you of this and show a rough distance to
the Yepzon. Note that buildings and other obstacles can
drastically reduce the range of the Bluetooth signal.

You can set how frequently the Yepzon will connect to the
server in each mode. Setting a long interval will save
Yepzon’s battery, but will also create a longer delay before
you receive the Yepzon’s location data. Therefore, you should
choose the settings based on your personal requirements
and use. Default settings for connection intervals are 5
minutes on the move and 6 hours when sleeping.

Example 1: Peter takes his lively son to a big playground. He
places the Yepzon in his son’s pocket and sets the refresh
rate in the Moving mode to 1 minute, because he wants to
know his son’s location as quickly as possible in case the
child disappears from sight. Battery consumption is not a
concern because Peter has fully charged the Yepzon in
the morning.

When you purchase a Yepzon, a certain amount of data
transfer may be included in the purchase price. The amount
can vary by retailer. The App will inform you when the data is
about to end. When Yepzon has run out of data, you can buy
more via the App. With Yepzon’s default settings and an av-
erage usage of 8 hours per day and one locating request per
day, the data consumption would be about 5MB/month.

In principle Yepzon is waterproof, as long as the rubber plug
covering the USB port is tightly closed. If fastened e.g. to a
schoolbag, rainfall on the way home will not bother it at all.
However, we recommend not to wear it while swimming, nor
drop it underwater. Also, do not allow it to fall onto hard
surfaces or be hit by sharp objects, as this may damage the
electronics.
