Location Services allows location-based apps such as ClockIN to determine your approximate location. If location services are enabled on the mobile application, your employees can clock in and out and add activity information including their location recorded at the time of the event. Please see the instructions below on how to enable GPS / Location Services for both iOS and Android operating systems.
iOS

- Tap the GPS icon on any of the pages within the app.
- Tap the Location option and select:

- Toggle for on for "Precise Location" or off "Approximate" location.
Location Services can also be changed directly from the device setting options by going to Settings > Privacy > Location Services.
