Implement Location based notification (off/on) via Geofencing #64

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
This is a request to implement location based notification in this app.

What I am hoping for is when I enter Masjid app detects the location (which is 
set only once) and puts Notification to Silence mode.

There is an app for that and I am hoping to have same functionality as GEO 
Profiles app.

Thank you and keep up the good work.

As'salaamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wabarakathu,

JazakAllahu khair for the feature request. Before we accept this solution, we 
would like you to consider the impact this will have on the battery life of 
your device. This type of feature requires "geofencing" detection. Which means 
that the app will periodically be querying for your GPS location, and based on 
whether it falls within a certain region, then it will react accordingly to it.

Accessing your GPS like this several times a day can have a significant impact 
on your battery life. So are you sure you would like this feature? Because it 
can be a cause of battery drain on your device.

BaarakAllahu feekum. Let us know.

App I am currently using does not take too much battery power. I runs in 
background and only when I reach at set location (longitude/latitude) then it 
turns off/on notification.

I would say Yes to have this feature added to the app.

JazakAllah,Ayub
