It may not be always good the application does everything. It may be worthy to try a standalone simple dedicated application, like below.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.webmajstr.anchor https://play.google.com/store/search?q=anchor+watch /Anchor watch is a position logger, SMS alarm and sound alarm and it monitors the device's current location and informs you if the location of the device changes too far away from the set anchor. In that case, it will sound an alarm and optionally send an SMS.// // //Please know that the performance and accuracy of the Anchor watch application depends on the hardware and software of the used device. If you have bad reception, please move the device to a location that has better satellite reception!// // //Because this application uses GPS to monitor movement, it will consume battery a bit faster than normally. We suggest you charge your device while using the app, although it's not necessary and the impact on battery life strongly depends on the device used! There is also an advanced option to set GPS update intervals which might greatly improve battery life.// // //Application features:// // ♦ Shows GPS location and accuracy// // ♦ Monitors current distance to anchor// // ♦ Alerts you in case you drift too far from the anchor// // ♦ Sends SMS if you drift too far away// // ♦ Responds to SMS keyword with status// // ♦ Allows you to select a sound alarm// // ♦ Allows setting exclusion zones// // ♦ Uses device's compass to set the anchor even if you are not located directly above it/ Dne 08/10/2017 v 11:05 'P Wat' via Osmand napsal(a): > As a frequent mariner I would say that this proposed "Anchor Watch" > plugin would be a very useful addition to OsmAnd. > Would somebody be willing to write it? - I do not have the skill or > knowledge to write the code. > > OsmAnd already uses proximity to trigger an alarm (eg arriving near a > POI).
