Location Alerts & Reminders

If we classify alarm clocks using "Ws": I already introduced the "When-Alarms", which fire at a given point in time. That category also included the "With-What-Alarms", giving you alternatives from music, weather, news, and more. This category here deals with "Where-Alarms", firing at given locations (e.g. when your train nears your target station) – and the "Why-Alarms", again firing at given locations (to remind you what you wanted to do once you're around).
