✓ mark DANGEROUS SPOTS in rivers like waterfalls before going canoeing
✓ place a MapAlarm at your DESTINATION when traveling by train or bus - don't oversleep the STATION where you have to get off
MapAlarm will help you whenever it comes to remembering places, sharing them & getting things done at certain locations.
PLEASE NOTE that for best results WIFI must be turned ON! Your device can hardly obtain your position if wifi is turned off. Therefore turning wifi off will hit MapAlarm's precision & may cause location reminders to fail.
MapAlarm will remind you even if your iPhone/iPad is idle or if you’re currently using a different app. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
DON'T WORRY about battery life! GPS is turned OFF by default. The arrow icon on top of your screen does not indicate that GPS is turned on but only location services in general. While in background MapAlarm uses battery-friendly wifi / cell tower positioning.

great location reminder & maps app
I tried a couple of GPS reminder apps ... Mapalarm is clearly my favorite.
Great to see how the app gets better and better with every upgrade. I like the easy way to share my places ... and thanks for adding Openstreetmaps, that's a big plus.
