Our tracking technology works for a variety of white LED flashlights; but be careful not to use a flashlight with “hot spots” in the center of the beam and may saturate the Smartphone camera and prevent the tracking from working properly.

There are two sensitivity settings (high and low). The App defaults to the High Sensitivity setting.
High Sensitivity is designed to detect older, dried, or faint blood that may be hard to see. It increases detection range but may occasionally false-trigger on red leaves or berries.
Low Sensitivity applies stricter filters to reduce false positives. It’s ideal for fresh blood and high-contrast tracking, offering more reliable alerts in cluttered environments.
Choose the setting that best fits your conditions — and switch anytime during your recovery.
