Geo Fence
The Geo Fence feature establishes a virtual boundary around a specific geographical location. Administrators can set up tasks to be executed on devices when users either enter or exit this defined geographical area.
Geo Fence requires GPS capability on the device.
To create a Geo Fence job and deploy it to the enrolled device(s) or group(s) remotely, follow these steps:
1. On the SureMDM Web Console, navigate to Jobs > New Job > macOS > Geo Fence.
2. Select Enable Geo Fencing.
3. In the Geo Fence screen, Select Fence and type the location in the Search box.
4. Click the Draw a Circle (located on the right of the map) icon.
Click and drag the circle in the desired location on the map. Once the location is marked, a prompt appears with Radius, Lat, and Lgn details.
Admins can also use the Download Template and Import option to add the fence.
5. Enter the Geofence Name and click Save.
The newly created fence is listed in the table.

9. Click Save.
