Atto lets you tailor location tracking to match your company’s needs. Whether you require full tracking during shifts or prefer a simpler check-in approach, the settings are flexible and easy to manage.
How to Set Location Tracking Preferences
Go to Settings in your Atto account
Select Location Tracking
Choose from these three options:
While on the Clock
Tracks location in real time during the entire shift. Requires devices to have “Always” location access enabled.
On Clock In/Out Only
Tracks location only at the time of clock in and clock out. Devices must be set to “While Using the App.”
Never
Disables location tracking completely. No location permissions are required.
User-Specific Location Tracking
Enable User-Specific Tracking to set location preferences individually for each team member. This is useful when different roles or responsibilities call for different levels of tracking.
Important Notes
Location permissions must be enabled on employee devices for location tracking to work correctly.
This affects key features like clocking in/out, job logging, and break tracking.
