SWURB GEO App offers Mobile Users Location-Based Reminder. The app allows users to set alarms, create lists, and avoid missed errands. SWURB GEO is a new app for iPhone operating systems that lets users to create location-based reminders and alerts. SWURB GEO utilizes global positioning system technology to register proximity to a location where a reminder should be prompted, such as a grocery store or pharmacy. The app then alerts the user that the location is nearby and displays a reminder to complete the task associated with that location.
An example of a location based reminder could be, “You’re a block from the dry cleaners; don’t forget to pick up your clothes while you are nearby.”
Reminders and lists in the app help users keep track of items to buy, people to meet and the purpose for each alert. SWURB GEO is different from other standard reminders and task lists because the alert is associated with a geographic location either, instead of or in addition to a specific date and time.
The SWURB GEO Application uses Apples GEO Fencing and may not be as accurate as the Swurb product.
