Snapdragon Wear enables up to 10 days LTE standby, ultra-low idle power, and smart AI-managed power save modes for always-on tracking without constant charging. ### Precise positioning everywhere Ensure the type of pinpoint location tracking consumers demand, even in challenging environments. Multi-constellation GNSS and Wi-Fi and cellular positioning come standard. ### Proven global connectivity Keep consumers connected, wherever they might be. Highly integrated modems are designed for reliable coverage—supporting Cat-M1, NB-IoT, E-GPRS, and Cat 1 LTE for higher data needs. ### Always-secure operation Protect consumer data with our trusted platform. Secure Boot, Qualcomm® Crypto Engine Core, and other hardware-based security technologies are engineered to safeguard the most sensitive use cases ## Help keep track of what matters most ![](https://s7d1.scene7.com/is/image/dmqualcommprod/smart-trackers-use-case-01?fmt=webp-alpha&qlt=85&wid=1800&fit=fit,1) ### Child safety Less charging, more playing. Smart trackers powered by Snapdragon give kids more freedom to roam, because parents and guardians get reliable cellular connectivity, geofencing and safe-zone alerts, and on-demand location sharing. Always private. ![](https://s7d1.scene7.com/is/image/dmqualcommprod/smart-trackers-use-case-02?fmt=webp-alpha&qlt=85&wid=1800&fit=fit,1) ### Pet tracking Up-to-the-minute insights, off leash. GNSS-based location offers the most advanced positioning data for dependable outdoor tracking across environments. Integrated, compact platforms enable lightweight tags and collars for maximum comfort. ![](https://s7d1.scene7.com/is/image/dmqualcommprod/smart-trackers-use-case-03?fmt=webp-alpha&qlt=85&wid=1800&fit=fit,1) ### Elderly monitoring Peace of mind, during the daily grind. A better safety standard for seniors comes in the form of standalone cellular with voice, integrated GNSS for location-aware SOS, hardware-based security, and support for AI-driven fall and inactivity detection. ![](https://s7d1.scene7.com/is/image/dmqualcommprod/smart-trackers-use-case-04?fmt=webp-alpha&qlt=85&wid=1800&fit=fit,1) ### Asset tracking Precious or priceless, pinpointed worldwide. Global multiband cellular and integrated GNSS provide dependable tracking across regions, with long-life, low-power operation, and support for AI-driven, event-based reporting and anomaly alerts. ## Connected platforms for connected living Premium. Mainstream. And everything in between.
