Apple

On the Apple platform, you can only use data collection rules can to collect device location data on iOS devices. Your iOS devices must have either the SOTI MobiControl device agent or a SOTI MobiControl SDK-enabled application installed to report location. SOTI MobiControl uses a combination of GPS signal, cell tower location, and WiFi hotspots to determine approximate location. If your device does not have a SIM card and is not near a WiFi hotspot location data will not be collected.

Note: Location accuracy and frequency is subject to the limitations of the device and the device user's privacy settings.
Location Reporting Type Description
