How this automation works

Automatically keep friends, family, colleagues, or clients in the loop without lifting a finger. This Applet uses your phone’s GPS to detect when you enter a specific location and triggers Blooio to send a pre-written iMessage. Perfect for 'I'm home' check-ins or letting a client know you’ve arrived at the office.
