Yea, I agree that it is crowded. It is less of a simple to-do app and more focused on setting up location triggered reminders for your friends and family.

But it is a hard space because it is such a polluted space. we are thinking of possibly pivoting it and using what we learned building it into a new service that focuses on needs of businesses in regards to setting of geofences.

I'd say stay away from trying to sell geo-fencing to businesses.

Location triggering reminders is actually a pretty damn useful thing. I can't remember how many times I can't remember to do something until its too late.

Unfortunately, this is something better built into a mobile device from the get-go, and not an add-on. If it was easy to set up, and did push or text notifications that would be nice. Getting the forgetful type to download and configure it will be the biggest challenge.

Yea I agree with pretty much most of what you said. Location triggered reminders are very useful and we are one of the only (if not the only) apps that allows you to create location triggered reminders and share them with friends and family. We think that this is what can set us apart.

We are researching the geo-fencing for businesses because we have been approached by one for setting up a service for their business, so we are looking into whether there is need for other businesses or whether this will just be a consulting job.

I think the bottom line is that all of these apps suck because of what the grand-grand-...-commenter said: it's much faster to pick up pen and paper, whereas apps take forever to launch and type things into by comparison. There's also the syncing problem and possibility of not having access to your to-dos on the desktop.

Is that a real need? Lucrative?

We are exploring the market right now, we think that there could be need, we have already been approached by a couple of people.
