Ratings and reviews

I had high hopes for this app because i really need a location based alarm. but there were so many issues with this one that I've finally deleted it. biggest problem? sometimes it didn't work at all: no alarm when i reached the target location. Then, when and if it did alarm, i had to turn the app off to make the alarm stop. And it's a battery hog, so i had to keep it turned off except when i knew I was going to need it.

Every other app I use that relies on GPS works as expected. This one frequently thinks it can't acquire a position, but it works again briefly if I toggle an alarm off and on again. I have to give this 1 star because the app has one job and it can't do it for me. And yes, permissions are all set, my phone is modern, battery optimization is off, etc.

Needs polishing. Once you pass a place and get an alarm, the alarm turns off. So if you pass the place again without turning the alarm back on, you won't get notified. Also, in Android 12, the location can only be enabled while the app is running. Which means, if the app is not running, you're not going to get notified. It does not notify from the background. And lastly, if notifications are turned on, which they have to be, it puts an icon in the status bar, which is annoying.
