Abstract
In today’s fast paced life, keeping track of all the events which has travel schedules is a tedious task. Though there are number of event reminder and calendar applications available for android, none of them supports dynamic reminders based on user’s current location. All the current available applications give an event reminder before a fixed amount of time from the event start time. Also, in the current available apps, a user has to separately feed information about all the events with travel plans for which he/she wants to get reminders. A user can set a fixed time for notifications to be sent before the event occurs. This requires estimation of the time required for travel to reach the destination location from a fixed start location and accordingly set the notification time to avoid delays reaching the destination. This estimation goes wrong if user starts travelling from different start location. This could lead to delays or even completely missing the event. With my “RemindMySchedule” android application I am proposing a solution to the above problem. This application will send dynamic notifications based on user’s current location, mode of travel, and importance of the schedule. App will automatically sync only those events which have travel information and send dynamic notifications. Notification will also include travel route information for users to start navigation. “RemindMySchedule” also provides the event specific location sharing among selected group of members to keep track of each other’s whereabouts. The application has been implemented using Android and its services for the front end.
