Description

Palerta alerts you when your friends arenearby - smartly, without being annoying about it, and whilstrespecting your privacy.

Install it, connect to Facebook - and that's it! Close the app,and forget about it, until you're notified of your friends nearby.Think of it a a service, not an app. But once you have thisservice, and you see how it works, you'll wonder how you ever livedwithout it.

Requires Android 2.2 (Froyo) or higher. Notifications take greatadvantage of the improvements in Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean), but theywork fine on earlier versions too.

Palerta will have very little effect on your battery. You won'tsee it in your battery usage, and you won't see the backgroundservice running. It's incredibly lightweight. It uses a locationlibrary we wrote and then open-sourced that's being used in somevery high-profile apps running and proven already on tens ofmillions of phones. Beta note: we have seen one or two reports ofbattery weirdness from custom non-standard Android builds - if youexperience this please send the details to [email protected]

Known issues:

- No ability to manually add friends, only automatically. Thisfeature will be completed very soon.

- some of the buttons look a bit weird in pre-4.0 devices. Lotsof graphical and layout changes will be fixed soon.
