Enable Location Services for Geofencing
Enable Location Services on your device to allow Team Xpress to accurately detect your location for map and geofencing features.
Turn on Location Services to ensure mapping and geofencing features work correctly in Team Xpress.
Location Services use your device’s GPS to confirm your position, which is required for features like Map and check-in.
