Android
Android is a free and open operating system from Google that runs on
all kinds of devices from phones, to tablets and even televisions. That’s
a ton of different devices you can target with just one platform! (And
the market share is gaining too!) Google provides all of the stuff you
need to get started building Android apps for free. You can build your
Android apps on Macs, Windows, or Unix and publish your apps for
next to nothing (with no need for anyone’s approval).
Why Android
• Android already runs on a TON of different devices!
• “Over 500,000 Android devices [are] activated every day”
• Download, install and launch eclipse
• After you download Eclipse, follow the installation instructions for
your platform and launch Eclipse. When you launch Eclipse for the
first time, you will be prompted to enter a workspace location ; a
directory where all of your Eclipse projects and settings will be stored.
Feel free to use the default or enter your own.

About Our App
Location alert applications are quite useful when time of an event is unknown.
The application lets the user specify address of central location of a region and a radius
around it and alerts the user when he/she enters the circular region.
It uses Global Positioning System (GPS) to acquire user location information.
GPS, a satellite based navigation system provides location information to Android devices
that come with built in GPS receivers.
Salient Features
Our app stores location reminders in a file system.
User can add new reminders , edit or delete existing reminders.
User can set multiple alerts for different locations.
The app is not required to run for receiving the alerts.
