# How to Track Digital Signage Screen Locations on a Map?

Learn how to set up live screen location in EasySignage so all your screens appear on a map with their online status.

## What does live screen location show me?

A map of every active screen on your account, online or offline, so you can see where each display sits across multiple sites. Online screens appear as **green pins** and offline screens as **red pins**. The map updates in real time, which makes it useful for vehicle-mounted and mobile screens as well as fixed sites.

Setup has two parts: the device, then the management console.

## How do I enable location on the device?

This applies to Android devices. Grant the app permission for precise location.

-   Open the device settings and go to **Location**
-   Turn on **Location Services**
-   Go to **Settings > Apps**, find the app, and open **Permissions**
-   Tap **Location** and choose **Allow all the time** or **Allow only while using the app**
-   Make sure **Use precise location** is turned on
-   Back in **Settings > Location**, open **Location Mode** or **Advanced** and select **High accuracy**

High accuracy uses GPS, Wi-Fi, and mobile networks together, which matters indoors where a pure GPS fix is unreliable.

## How do I turn it on in the management console?

-   Go to the **SCREENS** tab
-   Click **SET LOCATION** in the Screen Location column next to the screen name
-   Tick **Enable auto-update location using the device’s GPS**
-   Click **UPDATE LOCATION**

## Where do I see the map?

-   Go to the **DASHBOARD** tab
-   Click **SCREEN’S LOCATIONS** on the left of the dashboard

Use the toggle in the top right corner for a fullscreen view, and switch to satellite view if street-level detail helps.

## Can content change when a screen moves?

Yes, that is a separate feature built on the same location data. Geo-location lets you draw zones on a map and assign a playlist to each zone, so a screen switches content as it moves between areas.
