Locations-based profile, in German: location-based profiles and settings are a great thing. That means in plain text: You put on your phone (in my case, Android) determine a location. Betretet or her leave this place actions to be taken. The simplest case: you go to work and your phone is in silence. Super deal, right?

Stupid enough, the only app that I know so far was capable locale. Or it was certainly the best known. After a bit of searching I have gone to a great free solution. It is called Llama with two 'L' and offers almost exactly the same as locale. But just stop for free.

Do not let the little, so I'd say text-heavy, does not deter the Pics app. Llama is super clear and totally easy to configure. I've rarely seen an app with such care and various explanations (the app is the way in German) has been created. If you start the app for the first time, a detailed explanation of how the program works. We define to first place. These need to be covered by Llama. That is, Llama stores the radio masts, which are in the range. The phone then logged back into the towers, an action is performed. In principle a very simple idea. Nevertheless, awesome.

If you want to try this once, go ahead. The facility will take a bit (after all, has only once Llama capture the place), but it's worth it. I use this for college. Whenever I'm there, the phone switches to silent. Another rule idea: If the battery is below 7%, going from the wireless and the screen brightness goes down. This saves energy. The possibilities are endless.

By the way: You need not be worried that you auspioniert Llama and running routes created because: the app does not own the rights to access the Internet. Your data stays on the phone. Now who's curious, here is the link to the market . And who wants to donate something to the author (he really deserves it!), Who can buy Donation App .
