Love the "drop a pin" UX for location reminders, it's one of those things that should've existed natively years ago. The map-first approach feels way more intuitive than typing an address into a text field. Curious how you handle geofence accuracy in dense urban areas where GPS can bounce around a lot?

@lepaulrenard Appreciate it! Yeah, Apple should definitely have implemented it themselves, but I guess I'm happy since it left the window open for me 😀. And yes, dense areas can definitely be tricky, but Apple's CoreLocation does a pretty solid job under the hood, and I rely heavily on it. For the GPS bouncing in dense cities, that's actually exactly why I added the custom radius slider. If you know you're going somewhere with bouncy GPS, you can just widen the trigger area to 300m or 500m so it doesn't accidentally miss you.

Wow, I just wanted to drop a quick comment to say a massive thank you to everyone so far. 🙏
Hitting nearly 100 upvotes as a solo indie dev is completely surreal for me. The feedback and questions in the comments have been incredibly helpful, and it's just really cool to see people validating a problem I had, and the solution I made for it.
I'll be hanging around for the rest of the day, so if anyone else has feedback, feature requests, or questions about how I built it, please keep them coming!

@george_esther Yes😂! Leaving the store with everything except the one thing I actually went there for is the exact loop I get stuck in. Hopefully the app saves you from having to make a few of those second trips! Thank you so much for checking the launch out!
