Location Alarm rings when you arrive at, or leave, a place you choose, so you can doze on the train and still wake up at your stop.
About Location Alarm
Pick the place by dropping a pin on the map, using where you are now, searching for it by name, or sharing a location into the app from another app. Set how close counts as arrived, and whether the alarm should also give an early warning further out. Start watching when you set off, or leave an alarm always on.
While it watches, the app checks less often when you are far away or not moving, to save battery, and more often as you get close. You choose how thorough it is. When the alarm goes off it takes over the lock screen with a map and the distance, and stops with a tap, a sum, a shake or a typed code, whichever you chose.
A GPS panel shows your position, accuracy, speed, heading, height and satellites, and a track recorder draws your route on a map and saves it for later.
