Default Where do you get your Spot tracking link?

Hi all,
I received and activated my Spot tracker today and my wife is on a trip to the S.C. coast with it. Are we notified of the link or what? I don't have a clue.

Thanks,

Did you set up an account here? https://login.findmespot.com/spot-main-web/index.jsp

And you know tracking is an option, right? Not included in the basic subscription.

Default Thanks, guys.....

...Yes, I did opt for the tracking feature but nowhere did I see anything about going to "Share".

Thanks much,

Thanks much,
You don't need to use the share setup. It's just a matter of giving someone your loggin & password to view the pages. And BTW ---- If you have the older orange model, push the OK button for a good 10 seconds after the unit is on. Otherwise, the tracking sometimes stops.
