Using a Mobile Phone for Personal Monitoring with Ruhavik

21.6.2023 | Tatsiana Kuushynava

In the modern fast-paced world, personal monitoring is becoming increasingly important for various reasons, such as ensuring the safety of loved ones, protecting valuable assets, or monitoring employee activities. With the advancement of technology, personal tracking can now be easily done using mobile applications and a regular mobile phone.

GPS-Trace offers convenient and high-quality solutions for personal monitoring, thanks to its advanced features and intuitive interface.

The Ruhavik and Petovik applications provide peace of mind by allowing you to closely monitor those who are dear to you. Whether it's ensuring the safety of your children, monitoring the activities of elderly relatives, or protecting a beloved pet, personal monitoring offers a valuable solution.


As many know, in order to track units (whether it be people, animals, or vehicles) with Ruhavik, you need a special device called a tracker

However, firstly, it requires additional funds, and secondly, it's an additional device that you need to carry with you. While it's not difficult to install a tracker in a car or motorcycle for vehicle tracking, it's not always convenient to carry a tracker for personal monitoring. For example, not every child would agree to take an additional tracker with them during a walk, let alone take care of its safety.

In this case, a mobile phone comes to your aid, which is something that no longer surprises anyone nowadays.

📱Using a Phone as a Tracker

 You can turn your mobile phone into a tracker for tracking in Ruhavik by using specialized applications. Previously, in our blog, we extensively described how to use applications like WiaTag, Traccar Client, and even Telegram for these purposes.

It's important to note that using a phone as a tracker requires internet access and enabled location services. Also, when using a phone as a tracker, it's recommended to pay attention to the battery life to ensure that the device has enough charge for continuous tracking.
