Days for activation. Choose which days to enable tracking, according to the "Days for activation" settings.
If tracking is enabled according to the schedule, you can turn it off at any time. It will turn on again automatically in the next time period according to the schedule.

Offline mode. Allows sending forms/photos in Check-ins and tasks without network.
Tasks sync time span. Determines how many tasks will be downloaded in advance. You can reduce this value to not load too many tasks at once.
