Location Settings

In the Kiosk Settings tab of the Edit Device Profile page, you can control how the device’s location services behave when a profile is applied. This influences whether devices report their location and whether system location services are enabled or disabled.

Navigation: Go to Device Management > Device Profiles > Edit Profile > Kiosk Settings > Location Settings.

Option	Description
Unspecified	No specific location policy is set by CubiLock. The device retains its default Android behavior for location services.
Enforced	The profile requires location services to be turned on during provisioning and while the device is managed. If location services are off, the device will show a compliance issue until the user turns them on.
Disabled	The profile requires location services to be turned off. If location is on, the device will show a compliance issue until the user turns it off.

How to Use This Setting

Use Location Mode to control how device location services are treated as part of your security or compliance strategy:

• Unspecified: Leave location control to the device’s normal settings or other policies.

• Enforced: If your use case requires accurate location reporting (e.g., field force tracking, asset management), enforce location so the device must have location services enabled when provisioning and during operation.

• Disabled: For privacy‑focused use cases — for example, customer‑facing kiosks where location doesn’t matter — you can require location services be turned off.

Scenario	Recommended Setting
Fleet tracking, asset tracking, or geofencing requirements	Enforced
Devices used in private spaces with no location requirement	Disabled
Devices with no specific location requirement, or leave control up to the user’s OS default	Unspecified
