    Please see this screenshot I made for you to see how it works.

    So that others can benefit from the information, there's an iOS/Android app that can geofence multiple areas and send texts when you're leaving or
    entering custom areas, which you simply draw onto an OpenStreet map.

    "This app allows users to send pre-generated messages based on
    their geofence location area, thus informing other users when
    they enter or leave a geographical area. The user defines the
    geographical area by drawing it on the map. The app supports
    SMS messaging, WhatsApp, email, and push notifications."

    1. Draw a zone (on OpenStreetMap)
    2. Write your text message
    3. Select recipients

    Create multiple zones
    Store multiple recipients
    Send default and customized messages
    Setup recurring and one-time messages
    Add icon and color to each zone

    Duration selectable for 1h, 2h, 4h, 8h, 12h, 1 day & recurring.

    The app only has a thousand downloads, so you'd have to be good at
    searching to find it (luckily, I have the best app search engine tools).

    The caveat is that I only briefly tested it with mock location settings on Android so that I could make those screenshots for you to take a look at.

    As a result, I can't vouch for how well it might work in the real world.

    However, if others find the functionality useful, let the rest of us know
    so that we all benefit from the effort you invested in testing the app out.

    You're so predictable, Arlen.

    I often ignore posts from Google. Use a real news client instead.
