HOW TO FIND PIXIEFIED ITEMS
Tap on the Pixie Point you want to find from the Pixie App home screen.
The App will connect to your item. When the App has a strong signal (3 bars), the Pixie App will move to the panorama scan screen.
Stretch your arm out away from your body and slowly perform a the Panorama Scan by pressing the START button. The App will provide guidance on how to use the Panorama Scan feature Follow the in-App instructions
Page 3
Scan slowly while staying in place just like you are taking a panorama picture. Keep the shadowed arrow as close as possible to the solid one. If the red arrow appears you are going too fast.
Immediately after the App locates the searched item, Augmented Reality (AR) mode is presented.
At the end of Panorama Scan, Turn right or Turn left message is displayed, to guide you to your item.
Pixie Dust image shows you where the Pixiefied item is hiding.
The AR mode is active when the phone is tilted at a 60° or higher angle. When phone is below a 60° angle, The Pointer mode (arrow and distance) will be displayed.
Once you start walking, the App will automaticaly switch to Pointer mode. Hold your phone straight in front of you, pointing in the direction you are walking.
Metal detector mode –
When you are within 5 feet/ 1.5 meters from your item, the App will move into Metal Detector mode. This mode is like a hot\cold game. You will be assisted with both Sounds and Visual queues. On screen is displayed the distance from the phone to your item.
NOTE: that your item could be anywhere from the floor to the ceiling. So let the phone do the searching; move the phone up/down and side to side. As the phone gets closer -
HOT - the distance number goes down and the sound become more frequent and higher in pitch. As the phone moves away - COLD - the distance number gets higher and the sound slows and gets lower in pitch.
LOW SIGNAL SEARCH
When signal strength is too low, or Panorama Scan could not locate your item, the App will ask you to walk. The exact location of your item, will be determined as you are walking. Hold your phone straight in front of you and start walking in any direction to begin. Then walk according to the in-App instructions until the item is located.
TIP: You can tap the walking person icon on the screen, and the app will show you the exact distance to your item.
