You don't specifically need Wi-Fi to use the Tractive GPS tracker. However, the smartphone on which you're running the app, does require an internet connection - this connection can come from Wi-Fi or cellular data on your phone. A Wi-Fi connection offers an added benefit known as a Power Saving Zone.

Power Saving Zone example for the Tractive DOG XL: 5-15 day battery life goes up to 8-30 days with the use of a Power Saving Zone set up using your Wi-Fi. When the tracker is still (e.g. while your pet is asleep), the tracker will report fewer positions in order to save battery power.
