Your phone may notice that you are near a selected place. DOBIERO then checks whether a reminder would help. That first signal does not prove a visit.
1. Your phone notices a nearby area
Android or iOS may notice that your phone is near a selected area. This starts a check. It does not prove a visit.
2. DOBIERO checks your location
The app compares your current location with nearby places. Everything happens on your phone. Your precise location is not sent to a DOBIERO server or analytics tools.
- whether the location is current and accurate enough
- how close you are and whether you stay nearby
- whether nearby places are hard to tell apart
- whether the place, brand, or category is muted
- how long it has been since the last reminder
3. One current list, a separate notification decision
Every good reading rebuilds the full list of verified apps. Exact places in a conservative envelope below 80 metres come first, followed by safe nearby suggestions up to 150 metres. Home receives the first reliable result. DOBIERO also passes it to the widget, but iPhone decides when to display the change. The first alert requires several consistent readings and the required dwell time. Its content shows current suggestions and can later change quietly.
- An expanded notification shows up to four current apps; “+N” appears only when there are more than four. The widget shows as many as its size can hold.
- A suggestion never opens or installs another app. It needs your tap.
- After 10 minutes the app tries to confirm the list at the next safe opportunity; a weak or stale reading does not remove it immediately.
