This October, TrackoBit introduced several updates to make fleet management smoother and smarter. We added BLE sensor integration, time-based tracking links, and analog panic sensor calibration.
The mobile apps also got key improvements, including regional access and multi-fuel support. Each update focuses on better visibility, control, and compliance.
Scroll down to explore what’s new and see how these updates enhance your experience.
Major Updates in TrackoBit’s Web App for October 2025
New Feature 1 – BLE Sensor Integration is Here!
TrackoBit now supports Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) sensors, enabling wireless monitoring of parameters like temperature, load, and fuel through your GPS device.
BLE sensors connect to the GPS tracker, which sends data directly to our servers — no extra wiring, just accurate real-time insights.
Example: A reefer truck carrying medicines can now track compartment temperature seamlessly through BLE sensors, ensuring optimal conditions at all times.
Key Benefits:
- Wireless sensor connectivity
- Real-time, accurate data
- Easier setup and scalability
New Feature 2 – Time-Based Tracking Links Now Available
Earlier, you could generate a tracking link valid for up to 2 weeks, allowing anyone to monitor a vehicle’s movement without logging in. Now, you can add time restrictions to that link and control when the vehicle can be tracked.
Example:
If you’re a cab service provider, your vehicle operates between 8 AM to 11 AM for pickups and 6 PM to 9 PM for drops. With the new time-based setting, your client can track the vehicle only during these hours, maintaining privacy outside the defined window.
TrackoBit now gives you tracking links that work on your terms, with precision and privacy.
Let clients track only in set time windows
New Feature 3 – Analog Panic Sensor Calibration Added
TrackoBit now supports analog panic sensors along with digital ones. With this update, you can now configure and calibrate analog panic sensors that work on voltage ranges.
For example, if your panic sensor outputs a voltage above 3.3V, it can be set to indicate the button is pressed. If it’s below 3.3V, it means the button is off. You can define these thresholds easily through the new calibration table in the system.
With this update, panic alerts become more flexible, accurate, and compatible with a wider range of sensor types.
New Feature 4 – Vehicle Group Allocation Report Introduced
TrackoBit now records and reports the history of vehicle group allocations.
Whenever a vehicle or transporter is added to or removed from a group, an entry is automatically created.
For example:
Vehicle (V1) assigned to Group (G1) on Date (D1), and unassigned on the corresponding removal date.
The report also includes a play button that allows users to view the complete activity history of a selected vehicle for a chosen duration.
Key Benefits:
- Transparent group allocation history
- Detailed tracking of assigned and unassigned vehicles
- Quick access to past activity with the play option
- Improved user-level control and reporting
Clear history and full clarity on every vehicle’s group allocation
Other Updates
1. Authority-Based Sensor Management
Sensor visibility is now authority-based. Users will only see sensors linked to their account in the Connected To list, ensuring cleaner and more relevant access.
2. Consent Message for Record Deletion
A confirmation prompt now appears before deleting a service maintenance record, asking users to confirm the action with Yes or No.
Extra safety with a delete confirmation pop-up
3. Vehicle History Playback Iframe API Added
TrackoBit now supports an Iframe-based Vehicle History Playback API, making it easier for vendors or partners to integrate playback functionality directly into their own systems.
4. Time Zone Setting in Device Module
Users can now configure and manage device timezone settings directly from the web interface. This ensures accurate time-based data handling and synchronization across all device types.
5. Self-Created Trip Visibility for Temp Users
A new authority-based restriction has been added for sub users.
Sub users with the View Self Created Trip Only permission can now see only the trips they have created, not those within their hierarchy. Clients and transporters remain unaffected by this change.
6. Minor Fixes and Enhancements
Included Etrans protocol integration, resolved the JC400 device invalid GPS data packet issue, and fixed the parameter option bug for smoother performance.
What’s New in Android & iOS Applications?
- As part of the latest Google Play data security requirements, libraries have been updated and optimized to meet the new 16 KB memory size limit for Android app.
- Updated media and document access permissions as per Google’s new Android storage policies.
- UI and performance improvements for a smoother experience for both Android and iOS apps.
- Admins can now define which users have permission to view vehicle history and which do not in both apps.
- Drivers can now select their region within the app, and a single Android app is compatible across all regions. This update also aligns the app with the latest Google policy requirements.
- The iOS app now supports multiple fuel sensors on a single vehicle. Users can view all sensor data in fuel charts and reports and track combined fuel trends, usage, and refills in real time.
Conclusion
October was all about enhancing precision, control, and user experience across TrackoBit’s web and mobile platforms. From smarter sensor integrations to stronger data compliance, every improvement helps fleets operate more efficiently. We’re continuously working to make your tracking experience faster, simpler, and more reliable.
Stay tuned for more innovations and performance upgrades in the coming months.
