GeoAlerts

With GeoAlerts you can configure simple personal, friend and group reminders that trigger when entering or exiting a geographical area defined by you or your friends.

Features:

- Supports personal, friend and group alerts, allowing for a large number of use cases.
- Advanced area editor that allows to create circle-, stripe- and polygon-shaped areas of interest.
- Uses a patent-pending algorithm combined with Android geofences to reduce the battery consumption
by location updates and server requests.

any other users. This way we protect our users' privacy.
