The required access rights:
✧ View notifications;
✧ Create, edit, and delete notifications;
✧ Use unit in jobs, notifications, routes, retranslators.

On this tab, you can create, edit, copy, and delete geofences as well as create notifications about crossing their borders.

The Geofences tab consists of the following blocks:

• search bar;
• line with the area and perimeter of the selected geofence;
• map;
• list of geofences.

Drag the top border of the list to expand it to full screen.

A long tap on the geofence in the list opens its menu. Depending on the access rights and the shape of the geofence, the menu can contain the following options:

• — show or set the description;
• — edit the geofence;
• — copy the geofence (only for circle-shaped geofences);
• — hide the geofence on the map (the geofence is displayed again if you tap it in the list). To hide all geofences, you can use the Geofences option in the settings.
• — create a notification;
• — delete the geofence.

Creating Geofences

You can create only circle-shaped geofences in the application. To do this, follow the steps below.

6. Confirm or cancel the changes.
