Live tracking
With live tracking on, the SWAY Breeze regularly uploads your position and speed, so friends and family can follow your sail in real time on the SWAY platform. Your track is shown to you and the people who follow you, for up to 24 hours.
Live tracking was called Real-time sharing in earlier versions of the app.
What you need
Section titled “What you need”- SWAY Plus on your Breeze
- A Wi-Fi router with internet on board, such as a Starlink terminal or a 4G/LTE router
- The Breeze connected to that router. Your phone’s own mobile data is not enough: the Breeze uploads the position itself
Connect the Breeze to your router
Section titled “Connect the Breeze to your router”- Connect your phone to the Breeze
- Open the Breeze tab and tap Breeze settings › WiFi

Turn on live tracking
Section titled “Turn on live tracking”- Open the Breeze tab and tap Breeze settings › Live tracking

The row then says Your position is being shared. If the Breeze has no internet, the app warns you (No Wi-Fi router set up, or Not connected to your network) and takes you to the Wi-Fi settings.
