PazBy: Location Reminders

PazBy Software Ltd.

About this app

PazBy is your personal radar for the places you've been meaning to swing by. Save any spot — the hardware store for that one thing you keep forgetting, the pharmacy you drive past every week, a friend's house, the bookshop a coworker mentioned — and PazBy quietly taps you on the shoulder when you're nearby.

No timers. No alarms. No "did I drive past it already?" The app runs in the background, watches your location with a battery-aware gearbox, and surfaces a notification (and optional voice announcement) the moment you're actually close enough to swing in.

Works for travel just as well: save the viewpoint in Iceland, the coffee place in Lisbon, the restaurant a colleague recommended — even if you don't visit for years. PazBy keeps the radar warm.

✓ Save a place in one tap — long-press the map, tap a Google POI label, or share from Google Maps ✓ Quiet shoulder-tap notification + optional voice announcement when you're close ✓ Per-place reminder text — "Arrived at Canadian Tire. Don't forget: return drill bits." ✓ Group your places by type — Home, Work, Family, alerts, hazards ✓ Available-on-date/time gating — a Wednesday-only deal, a Happy Hour spot, a Saturday market

PLAN YOUR ERRANDS AT A GLANCE A bonus you'll notice the first time you have four errands to run. Every saved place is visible on one map, numbered by distance. When the bank trip turns into "and three other things while I'm in the area," you can see what's nearby and stitch them into one efficient route — no spreadsheet, no copy-pasting addresses into Google My Maps. Your places already live on the map. Just look.

ONE-TIME PURCHASE. NO SUBSCRIPTION. Productivity-suite apps (Todoist, TickTick, Any.do) put location reminders behind $36–80 per year subscriptions. PazBy is the same feature for a single one-time purchase. Buy it once, use it forever.

SWITCHING FROM GOOGLE KEEP? Google Keep dropped its location-reminder feature in the Tasks migration, and Tasks doesn't have one. If you used Keep to tag a place ("remind me when I'm near the bookshop") and there's now no in-app replacement, PazBy is built for exactly that — one-time purchase, no subscription, no account, your places stay yours.

PRIVACY-FIRST BY DESIGN • Your saved places live in an encrypted database on your phone — never on our servers (we don't have any). • Optional cloud backup goes to your own Google Drive's hidden app-data folder, encrypted with a passphrase only you know. We can't read your backups even if we wanted to. • No analytics SDKs. No Google Analytics. No Mixpanel. No Facebook SDK. No advertising ID. Just anonymous crash reports on release builds. • No account. No login. No third-party data sharing.

TRAVEL MODE Flip Travel Mode when you go on a trip and your day-to-day errands list temporarily hides — only the places you saved in the city you're visiting show on the map. Flip it off when you're home and your local list snaps back. One toggle.

BUILT FOR EVERYDAY USE Background-location done right: a smart gearbox sleeps the GPS when you're parked at home, wakes when you start moving. The app is designed to sit in the background quietly without draining the battery.
