Location based reminders? Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
Hi,

Is there a way to create location-based reminders for certain actions? So that when you go near a location, you are automatically alerted about these actions? without having to set the context or tap the nearby button.

No, you'll have to check for actions. The mechanism for the iPhone to continually poll where you are and send data somewhere so you can be alerted is complicated… in fact almost impossible unless you leave OF running all the time which would really chew battery.

Now this would be a really cool feature!
