From both of them. You could however set the spot one to not send it to anybody.

FWIW I use Spot quite a lot, Spotwalla very rarely, so Spot is my messaging system of choice. It's also one less link in the chain.

I guess so. I swit he'd mine on this morning and pressed the walk button. It's started tracking perfectly over my gpx file I'm doing today. No check in message sent before it started. :-bd

I'd like to remove a link for sure, I guess once I'm more educated on spot.

If it’s just tracking and you cant set a route on the map overlay, but the easiest way is to use the spot app. Get you family members to download it onto their phones and then they log in with your spot name and password. Set the auto update to every 5 mins and you are set. The only negative is it just shows positions and doesn’t join them up with a line.

Not quite sure how ive done it, but managed to turn my Samsung S10 into a Spot Tracker and linkup to the Spotwalla Tracking Page using Bubbler GPS App.
It was quite easy really. I have a big 26,000 battery so should keep me going for 24 hours.

Anyway my tracking updates every 15min and my tracking ID is AlB
