Have you ever tried the famous Google’s payment app ‘Tez’? I’m sure you did, then you must have encountered that it calls you to activate ‘location’ whenever you try to make a payment through it. Isn’t that abnormal? No, it’s absolutely not. Tez does this in order to improve the security and to reduce the chances of feudal transaction. Well, it’s not the only case when location services are used to improve the user experience and quality of the service.

Nowadays location has become a core fundamental feature for almost every apps whether it’s social networking sites like Facebook, and Whatsapp or payment apps like PayPal, Tez, Paytm etc. It’s primarily used for navigation. We just can’t imagine apps like Google Maps without the location feature. I mean they totally dependent on this service for their proper working.

Problem with using ‘location’ in the first place:

Now we know that location is much-needed service for our phones and other navigation devices. But there are some issues involved with this

  • You must have encountered that whenever you use Google Maps for Navigation, your battery drains much faster than before. This is the fact. Location requires lots of power consumption to work. That’s the reason why people don’t use mobile maps in the first place.
  • It’s very obvious that when you are consuming more power, your device gets heated. It becomes a nightmare when you are using location to navigate through your phone in the daytime of summer season.
  • Although the location is a wonderful feature it’s not 100% accurate all the time. Its accuracy is only limited to a large range of places it’s not too perfect in the places with a small range.

  • GeoSpark stores and analyzes historical location data for each user. It learns from each user’s activities (only after the user’s consent) which help to improve its performance.
  • GeoSpark generates events when a user enters or exits frequently visited places and predicts how often he visits and his next visit and approximately how long he would spend in a location.
  • With cross-platform support unlimited geofences, polygon geofences, and stop detection it’s more powerful than Android and iOS native geofencing. That’s why it’s able to generate real-time changes.
