Coming from Android, I really miss a Windows Phone (8) app that can do certain things based on where you are (preferably using the phone network antennas, not GPS). On Android, one of the best apps for this is Llama. Tasker is another app like it, but Llama is really focussed on location-based profiles.
What I'm looking for is the following:
- determine your (approximate) position based on cellular positioning (gsm antenna)
- switch profiles automatically when relocating (a choice of turning on/off bluetooth, gps, wifi, mobile data, and adjusting your volume)
I've searched the store and several WP blogs, but absolutely zero hits. Are WP apps not allowed to perform such functionality ?
Update: Apparently, the 8.1 update for Windows Phone will improve upon geofencing capabilities. It will also allow some sort of notification/action centre, where you can toggle wifi, bt, etc... more quickly. So it seems Microsoft is loosening it's policy regarding system restrictions in this area.
