How this automation works

Automatically save a location link to your iOS Reading List whenever you arrive at or leave a chosen area. This Applet runs when your phone detects that you've entered or exited a specific location, then adds a map URL and details to Safari's Reading List. It's perfect for saving places you visit frequently or wish to review later on your iPhone or iPad.
