Do you have a question?

Do you have a question?

Yes definitely. why there are more than 10 locations per minute. I have added the log details pic

[christocracy]

why there are more than 10 locations per minute.

How many are you expecting? There is no guarantee on "number of locations per minute".

I want to send max 7-10 locations per minute

[christocracy]

There are a number of ways you can get more locations than expected, eg: many changes in speed (eg: stuck in a traffic jam).

There is no way to guarantee a fixed number of locations / minute. Increase your distanceFilter.

I have no idea what those devices were doing. Walking? car ride? City driving vs highway?

The answer would be in the logs. See API docs .emailLog and analyze the plugin logs.
