OderWay FAQ
- What is OderWay? OderWay is an iPhone app and web service to track your iPhone and share your location with others. You can even send messages to your OderWay friends for free or track where they are.
- How can I install/register it? You can install OderWay from iTunes Store or AppStore in your iPhone.
- Is OderWay always running in the background? OderWay will only work if you have OderWay opened. OderWay will update your location even if your iPhone is sleeping but the app should be opened.
- What is Make Remote Call? With Make Remote Call you can make your iPhone call somewhere without actually touching it. For example, you can use this feature if your iPhone has been lost and you want to hear if it's in the nearby to try to identify where it is.
- How can I reset my password if I forget it? You can click on “Did you forget your username or password?” on the front page and enter your email address to reset the password. After you receive the mail, follow the attached instructions!
- What is the Checking Rate? Your iPhone will have to connect to OderWay.com in order to know what to do: make a phone call, receive a message, etc. So the checking rate will be how many minutes your iPhone will wait before checking into the OderWay.com server. The longer the time the longer the battery life, although this action does not use very much battery power.
- What is the Location Rate? When you enable Location Services your iPhone will inform the OderWay.com server of where it is so you can track it. The Location Rate will be how many minutes your iPhone will wait between location updates. As in the Checking Rate, the longer the time the longer the battery life but it would be more accurate if you set a time of 15 minutes or so.
If you are using location services too I recommend that the Checking Rate and Location Rate be the same. This way they will be synced to connect at the same time and improve your battery life over having them set to different times.
