How can Carbucks automatically log your trips?
Carbucks offers two seamless methods for automatic trip tracking. Through thorough research and development, we have devised a means to track your journeys using only your mobile phone.

This innovation allows you to effortlessly maintain a comprehensive record of your drives, whether or not you have the Carbucks Vehicle Health Monitor.
Logging with a Carbucks Device
If you have a Carbucks Vehicle Heath Monitor integrated with your vehicle, rest assured that the Carbucks App will adeptly handle the tracking of your trips whenever you embark on a drive:
Once your device is correctly installed, connected, and crucially, equipped with Location and Activity/Motion permissions, Carbucks will automatically discern the initiation and conclusion of your drives and diligently maintain a detailed log. For further information regarding setting Location to "Always," please refer to this resource.
Logging without a Carbucks Device
Carbucks can detect your in-car movements based on the Location and Activity/Motion permissions, subsequently capturing your trip data. While this method is undoubtedly convenient and efficient, it's important to acknowledge that trip tracking may be slightly slower due to potential transmission delays.
