Great question! Locate on demand can extremely handy when you need to know where your valuable is at any given moment .
For "Locate on Demand" to work, your settings must be set to Optimized for Responsiveness , and the feature must be available in your region. (To understand this see Understanding GPS modes - Optimised for Battery VS Responsiveness).
If you are using any mode other than "Optimized for Responsiveness," including Motion Only Mode (Ultra Low Power Mode), you can't locate on demand. Therefore, to ensure you stay updated when movement occurs, we recommend enabling the Motion Sensor (accelerometer). For more details, refer to Using the Motion Sensor.
