Instant, self-serve asset recovery inside MyGeotab

When a vehicle or asset goes missing, every minute counts. We launched Lost Mode, a self-serve recovery feature built directly into MyGeotab®. Fleet managers can now initiate an immediate, structured response with a single click directly from the Assets or Map page.

Why it matters

Vehicle theft creates an operational crisis that leaves teams scrambling across tools and contacts. Lost Mode eliminates confusion by providing a guided recovery workflow the moment an incident occurs.

Included in GoPlan and ProPlus subscription plans at no additional cost, Lost Mode delivers built-in security protection without requiring complex setup. Resellers can use this update to demonstrate tangible safety value, address client security concerns directly, and strengthen long-term account retention.

Maximizing recovery with smart device controls

Activating Lost Mode automatically adjusts device behavior to protect your tracking capability while guiding you through next steps.

  • Concealed tracking: Disables audible alerts and LED indicators on GO™ devices to prevent alerting a potential thief.
  • Automated duration: Maintains optimized recovery tracking for 72 hours, with the option to reactivate whenever necessary.
  • Updated asset navigation: Moves Restricted Data Mode into a dedicated dropdown menu on the Asset page for cleaner data management.

To activate Lost Mode during an incident:

  • Navigate to Assets or Map from the main menu.
  • Select the missing vehicle or asset.
  • Click Lost Mode to start the recovery process.
Availability

Available now to all commercial customers globally, including FedRAMP.
