How to Add a New Tracker
Each new device needs to be activated before it appears in your account. Activate every tracker at shieldgps.co/activate using its unique IMEI number. Once activated, the device appears in your account automatically — no manual linking required.The IMEI number is a 15-digit code printed on your device’s packaging and also visible inside the ShieldGPS app under the device settings.
Viewing All Your Trackers
Open the ShieldGPS app or visit shieldgps.co/dashboard — the map view displays all of your active devices at the same time, so you can see every asset at a glance. Use the device list to focus in on a single tracker and view its details, history, or alerts.One Subscription Per Device
Each tracker requires its own active subscription. Plans are managed through support@shieldgps.co — reach out to add, change, or cancel subscriptions across your devices.Tips for Managing a Large Fleet
Keep your fleet organised from day one by following these best practices:Name Your Devices Clearly
Give each tracker a descriptive name — such as a vehicle registration number or asset description — so you can identify it instantly in the device list.
Check Online Status at a Glance
Use the device list overview in the app to quickly see which trackers are online and actively reporting, and which are offline.
Set Home-Base Geofences
Create a device-specific geofence for each vehicle’s regular location — such as a depot or driveway — so you’re alerted the moment any asset leaves unexpectedly.
Review Trip Logs Regularly
Use per-device trip logs and mileage reports to keep accurate records for expense reporting, maintenance scheduling, or compliance purposes.
