How to make the most of modes in the ANIMAL profile

GPS tracker Mala for dogs

Overview of modes in the ANIMAL profile and their correct usage. Set your GPS tracker Mala exactly according to the situation and make full use of its capabilities.

How GPS tracker Mala works

Position detection:
The device determines its current coordinates using GPS. It achieves the highest accuracy outdoors with a direct view of the sky. Indoors or in dense urban areas, accuracy deviations may occur.

Data storage and transmission:
In modes with active tracking, the position is recorded, for example, every 10 seconds. These positions are then sent to the app every minute.

Sleep mode:
If the device is not moving, it switches to power-saving mode to conserve battery. It automatically reactivates when movement is detected.

Operating modes of GPS tracker Mala

Choose a mode according to the situation and method of use. Correct settings significantly affect battery life and tracking accuracy.

Walk with trip recorded / Dog search

Suitable for:
regular walks, hiking, and monitoring recommended daily activity.
How it works:
  • The position is recorded every 10 seconds.

  • These positions are stored in the device and their summary is sent to the app every 1 minute.

  • After movement ends, the recorded route is automatically saved to history in the app and the device then switches to power-saving mode.

  • If the device is not moving, it checks for a mode change every 4 hours.

Model battery life:
1 h/day → up to 39 days
4 h/day → up to 11 days
12 h/day → up to 4 days

Walk without trip recorded

Suitable for:
situations where you do not need a detailed route and want maximum battery life.
How it works:
  • Only the start and end of movement are recorded.

  • The detailed route is not stored.

  • To change the mode, the device must be in continuous movement for at least 1 minute, or it must be placed on the recharging mat.

  • If the tracker is not moving, it checks the possibility of a mode change every 4 hours.

Model battery life:
1 h/day → up to 126 days
4 h/day → up to 65 days
12 h/day → up to 24 days

Dog in the garden

Suitable for:
monitoring your dog in the garden, enclosure, or at home, where you use a geofence to monitor whether it leaves the defined area.
How it works:
  • If the dog is inside the geofence, positions are not sent to the app in order to save the tracker’s battery.

  • When the geofence is crossed, a notification arrives within 2 minutes and the device automatically switches to Walk with trip recorded / Dog search mode.

  • After returning inside the geofence, position transmission stops and the recorded walk is saved to history.

Model battery life:
up to 20 days

Live tracking

Suitable for:
active dog search or immediate movement tracking.
How it works:
  • The position is recorded every 5 seconds.

  • Every 5 seconds it is also immediately sent to the app and displayed in real time.

  • The tracker remains active the entire time, which significantly increases battery consumption.

Battery life:
maximum 9 hours

situations when you will not use the tracker for a longer period and want to completely turn off the device.
Warning: It is not recommended to turn off a tracker that you do not physically have with you.
If needed, it will not be possible to turn it on again.
How it works:
  • After sending the request from the app, the tracker remains active for another 10 minutes.

  • During this time, the mode can be changed.

  • After 10 minutes, the device completely turns off.

  • Turning it back on is only possible by physically placing it on the recharging mat.
