Text to Locate

Text to Locate

ArmGuard’s Text to Locate feature gives approved contacts a simple way to request the current location of an ArmGuard smartwatch user by text message.

This feature is designed to provide peace of mind for caregivers, family members, and authorized contacts by making it easy to check on a user’s location when needed.

To use Text to Locate, the person requesting the location must be listed as an approved contact on the user’s account. The request must also come from the phone number saved in the customer portal.

To request a location, the approved contact simply sends a text message to:

(855) 999-3224

The message should say:

Find [First Name]

For example, if the smartwatch user’s name is Jean, the approved contact would text:

Find Jean

Once the request is received, the smartwatch will attempt to determine the user’s current location. The system uses GPS and advanced Wi-Fi location services to provide the first valid location received from the device.

When the location is found, the approved contact will receive a text message with the approximate location and a clickable Google Maps link.
