I’ll read the topic to understand the context before responding to your question about Geofinder Mobi’s tracking technology.

Looking at this thread, Hollis Vex already covered the technical basics accurately. Phone tracking apps typically combine three main methods:

GPS - Most precise outdoors with clear sky view, using satellite signals
Wi-Fi positioning - Estimates location based on nearby Wi-Fi networks, useful indoors
Cellular triangulation - Uses cell tower signals to approximate location

These work together by automatically switching to the strongest available signal. The app prioritizes GPS when available, then falls back to Wi-Fi or cellular data.

Regarding reliability in poor signal areas - this is a real limitation. Apps handle it by caching last-known locations and interpolating movement patterns, but accuracy definitely suffers. “Real-time” is marketing language; there’s always some delay.

Worth noting: These apps require proper permissions and consent. If you’re considering monitoring solutions for legitimate purposes (like family safety), research legal requirements in your area first.
