I have just submitted an update to GeoAlert. It includes a few new features and a few optimizations.
- You can now specify the proximity to an alert (between 250 to 2000 meters). However, due to the nature of location multitasking in iOS 4, you should only use small proximities for areas that you have strong cell reception.
- A short message can be attached to an alert, and it will be shown when the alert is triggered.
- GeoAlert now correctly unregisters itself from location multitasking if there are no active alerts
I have also decided to release a free, ad supported version of GeoAlert. It has also been submitted, and so hopefully it will be available in a week or so.
As always, feel free to comment on this post or email me (feedback@opetopic.com) if you have any questions or suggestions.
