Using cell phone as additional Cobra locator
Hello,
I heard that it is possible to ping your location from your cell phone if you are logged into Cobra, similar to the GPS tracker locators. From my understanding cell phones can just ping their location but not act as a route tracker though.
What is the process to use your phone this way in Cobra?
Thank you,
Amanda King

Amanda,
It is true you can send or "pulse" your current location from your phone. To do so you need the COBRA mobile app. Please note the application is in Beta and may not always work as expected.
You can find it here for Android:

To pulse your location:
- log in with your credentials
- choose the incident you want to join
- From the menu, choose Locator
- You may be prompted to choose a locator type, if so select one
- Press the Pulse button
Note that you have to have the locator registered for an incident for you to see the location on the map.
