Vibration, or earphones only

Never miss your stop,
quietly every time

Ever dozed off on the bus and missed your stop? Pin a place on the map and your phone vibrates when you arrive. With earphones in, you also get a sound — never through the speaker.

Arrival alert screen showing the place name, arrival time, a nearby map and a large dismiss button.

One beep from the speaker in a library,
and this app has failed its one job.

So it checks that earphones are connected first, and only then plays a sound. Wired, USB-C and Bluetooth earphones are all treated the same; if none is confirmed, it only vibrates. Devices that leak sound, such as car audio, are excluded.

What it does

Only what it takes to get one alert right.

Pin it on the map

Search by name or move the map. You set the radius while seeing it as a circle, so there is no guessing how far 100 m is.

A sound for every place

Pick from five built-in sounds or add your own audio file, so you can tell where you arrived just by the sound.

Works in the background

It alerts you even with the screen off or while you use other apps, without keeping GPS on all the time.

Adjustable vibration

Without earphones, vibration is all you have. Choose weak, normal or strong.

Light and dark mode

Follow your device or choose in Settings. The alert screen always stays dark so it never glares on a night bus.

On your smartwatch too

The app shows how to get alerts on Galaxy Watch or Apple Watch, so your wrist knows when you arrive.

FAQ

Can it wake me up before my bus or subway stop?

Yes. Save your stop or station on the map and your phone vibrates the moment you enter that radius — even with the app closed and the screen off.

Does it make a sound without earphones?

No. It plays a sound only after confirming wired, USB-C or Bluetooth earphones are connected. Otherwise it only vibrates and never uses the speaker.

Does it drain the battery?

It does not keep GPS on. Far from your places it relies on the system’s geofencing, and only checks precisely when you get close.

Is my location sent to a server?

No. Arrival is detected on your phone, and your places and history stay on the device. There is no account.

Can I get alerts on my smartwatch?

Yes. If your Galaxy Watch or Apple Watch mirrors phone notifications, arrival alerts reach your wrist. Settings › Get alerts on your watch shows how.

Is it free?

Yes. It includes ads, but never on the screen that is alerting you.

Your location never leaves your phone

Arrival is detected entirely on your phone. No coordinates or movement history are sent to any server — not even the developer can know where you have been.

  • ✓Your places and arrival history are stored only on the device.
  • ✓Diagnostic logs stay in the app’s private storage and leave only when you tap “Export”.
  • ✓Delete the app and everything goes with it.
