Set Up and Edit a Safe Zone

Setting up a Safe Zone is crucial to knowing that your dog is in a safe space. You can set up an unlimited amount of Safe Zones in your Fi Account and edit them at any time.

It is important that you set up your safe zone to cover more space around the area designated as “safe.” This will help avoid unnecessary notifications when your dog is near the edges of the Safe Zone.

Adding & Naming a Safe Zone

You can add a safe zone to any space that you are at frequently or even visiting temporarily. Here are some common spaces you can set up and name as a safe zone:

• Your home 
• Your second or vacation home
• A friend or family member's home
• A pet sitter or boarding day care location
• Your office 
• A dog park 
• Travel destinations, including a hotel

For the name, while you can leave the name as a street address we recommend naming your Safe Zone so it is easy for you to remember. Here are some naming examples:

• • Home
  • Vacation Home
  • Beach Home
  • Office
  • Tom's Place

Setting Up a Safe Zone

Whether you are setting up your first or creating an additional safe zone, follow the steps below to create a safe zone.

1. In the Fi App, tap your dog's profile picture in the lower right corner. Once you are in the profile, tap the 3 stacked lines to open the Settings Menu:

   

2. Tap Pack settings

   

3. Scroll down to the Safe Zone heading and tap Add safe zone.
   
4. Type in a name for the Location Name and type the address into the search bar.
   Note: An address may auto-populate in the search bar, which reflects your approximate location. You can remove it and type in another address if needed.
   
   
5. Once you have chosen the address, you can set your Safe Zone shape.
   • By default, your safe zone may be a square. You can edit the shape by dragging the lines at each point. Additionally, if you want your safe zone to be a circle, you can tap the circle icon on the right side of the page. 
     
     
   • You will want to ensure the safe zone shape correctly covers the area in the map you consider safe. We recommend doing this even if this automatically updates the address.
   • Safe Zones have a minimum radius/area. They must have the minimum to account for GPS accuracy margin of error.
     • Circle Safe Zones have a minimum radius of 60 feet.
     • Square/polygon Safe Zones have a minimum area of 11,309 square feet and can be customized to fit your exact area.
6. Tap Save when you've finished setting up your Safe Zone:
