Schedules and repeats

Personalize alarms with default sounds, custom audio, vibration, voice messages, and text-to-speech.

Organized places

Use map and list views, labels, colors, emoji markers, links, and history to manage many alarms.

Set it your way

Simple setup, detailed control when you need it.

GPS Alarm keeps the core workflow map-first: choose a place, tune the radius, pick the trigger, and save the reminder.

Important setup note

Background alerts depend on Android permissions and device settings.

GPS Alarm is built for screen-off and offline-capable monitoring, but Android battery optimization, notifications, exact alarm access, and OEM background restrictions can affect behavior. The product includes setup and troubleshooting guidance for these cases.

Reliability and setup

Designed for background use, with Android caveats stated clearly.

Core alarm monitoring can work without mobile data, and GPS Alarm is built for screen-off use when permissions and device settings allow it. Battery optimization, notification settings, exact alarm access, GPS signal, radius size, and OEM background limits can affect timing and delivery, so setup guidance remains part of the product experience.
