Search with Google Maps.
Get alerted with WakePoint.

■ Adjustable alert distance

Choose how early you want to be notified before reaching your destination.

For walking, choose a shorter distance.
For trains or buses, choose a little more distance.
For cars or long-distance travel, choose a wider alert range.

You can adjust the alert distance to match your trip.

■ Location usage

WakePoint monitors your location only while an alarm is active.
Location is used to check whether you are approaching the selected destination.

If notification permission, location permission, or device location settings are required, WakePoint will guide you inside the app.

■ Notes

Notification timing may vary depending on GPS accuracy, underground areas, tunnels, buildings, device battery settings, and network conditions.
For important trips, we recommend choosing an alert distance with enough margin.

WakePoint helps reduce missed stops, forgotten destinations, and travel mistakes by turning Google Maps places into simple GPS arrival alarms.
