# Device Recovery Notifications

## Get alerted when Missing devices come back online and report a new location

**Overview**  
Device Recovery Notifications alert your team when a device marked Missing comes back online and records a new location in Senturo. This article explains how recovery tracking works and how to enable notifications.

---

**How Recovery Tracking Works**

- **Which devices are tracked?**  
  Only devices with status **Missing**. When a device is marked Missing and is offline, Senturo starts tracking it in the **Missing devices** table.
- **What triggers a "Recovered" event?**  
  Every **10 minutes**, Senturo checks each tracked device for a **new location record**. 
    - If a new location is found, Senturo marks the device **Recovered** and creates a **Device Recovered** notification.
    - If no new location is found, the device remains in the tracking table and will be checked again in the next 10-minute cycle.

#### **FAQs**

**Q: What conditions must be met for a recovery notification?**  
A: The device must be **Marked Missing**, previously **offline**, and then record a **new location**. That location event triggers "Recovered."

**Q: Do I get recovery notifications for devices that were just offline (not Missing)?**  
A: No. Recovery notifications are only for devices with status **Missing**.

**Q: Who receives the notification?**  
A: All users listed under **Notification Settings \> Device Recovered** for your organization.
