GeoAlert is a location aware alarm clock for your iPhone. Simply set a time range you want the alarm to be active, then set a location, and the next time you are near the location in the time range you will be alerted.

So, how can you use this?

* Next time you take a train or bus, set a GeoAlert at your final stop. Don’t be afraid to take a nap since GeoAlert will let you know when you are close to your stop.

* If you are touring a city, try setting a few GeoAlerts at some of its landmarks, museums, etc. Then as you walk through the city, GeoAlert will notify you when you are near a point of interest.

* Need to pick up milk next time you are near the grocery store? GeoAlert to the rescue!

* Wanna avoid certain areas of your city? Just set up a GeoAlert to be notified when you are getting close to undesirable areas.

Features:

* Runs in the background using iOS 4’s new multitasking features.
* Simple, easy to use interface and optimized for iPhone 4’s Retina Display.
* Easy on the battery.
