Best app ever. It works! Conserve battery powered by disabling wifi.

Now this is awesome! It works on the Motor Droids. Now if you could get it to work on the Droid Eris it would be double awesome.
★★★★★
It actually works great. Downside is, battery seems to drain faster since I downloaded this app. Fix that, and its 5 stars. Droid X 2.2

Terrible Terrible looking and written app, why is it still stuck in GB days? Terrible developer with a horrible attitude in reddit.

Needs gps for accuracy Works well if you have places far separated, otherwise problems. Needs option to use GPS periodically for a more accurate location check.
★★☆☆☆
