Penza, 25 March 2014. PenzaNews. The residents of the Penza region now have access to the application “Megafon Tracker” launched by companies Megafon and MegaLabs, which allows accurate tracking of mobile devices.

As the PR-manager of Penza branch of OJSC Megafon Olesya Postnykh, “Megafon Tracker” provides more accurate data compared with the services “Radar” and “Staff control.”

“Earlier, the location of users of “Radar” and “Staff control” only based on the data received from the stations, which could result in an inaccuracy of over 100 meters in the city center and a few kilometers outside the city. “Megafon Tracker” application receives information from several sources — GPS / GLONASS, Wi-Fi- receiver of the phone and base stations. By installing the application on the child's phone or the one of the employee, one will be able to locate the person and track their movements with accuracy of a few meters,” the agency interlocutor said.

She added that the application will be helpful to parents who are worried about the safety of their child, as well as the heads of the companies, which require constant monitoring of the movement of their workers.

Olesya Postnykh noted that the possibility of a person getting in the blind zone is almost impossible.

“The application is free. It is available for downloading in GooglePlay for devices based on the operating system Android 2.3 and higher,” the PR-manager of Penza branch of OJSC Megafon noted.
