FAQ

As soon as your Ulmon app is loaded to your iPhone or iPad, it does not need any internet access.
Please make sure that your data roaming is turned off, since the locate-me feature of the iPhone will try to connect to the internet to locate you! We have no influence on that. Use the "Data Roaming" switch of your iPhone (look in: Settings >> Cellular Data >> Cellular Data Options).

The app language itself adapts to the regional settings of your device. Please try to change it to English and then back to the original language. Now the app should be in English.

Keep in mind that especially the first time you try to locate in a new city, GPS may take several minutes to locate you.
Also, make sure that you are using a device with built in GPS. Only iPad devices with cellular have GPS! iPod touch don't have GPS.
If you have a device with GPS, and because GPS uses satellites, you need to have free view to the sky. It will not work indoors.
If you have a device without GPS, your iOS device normally automatically uses "assisted GPS" ("assisted GPS" explained on Wikipedia) to find your location. Because assisted GPS requires an Internet connection, it will not work if you have no network or WiFi connection, or are abroad and have deactivated data roaming. Note that "Airplane Mode" will deactivate GPS alongside WiFi and cellular in your device. So make sure you are not in "Airplane Mode" (on your device go to: Settings >> Airplane Mode). If you want to prevent data roaming, use the "Data Roaming" switch of your device (on your device go to: Settings >> General >> Network).
