-===== Notification signals when approaching an alert location ===== 
-\\ 
-As soon as you enter a location alert circle, the application will play sound notifications to help you find your way to the location without handling your device: 
- 
-  * When going towards the location, while being in the external circle area (from 1/1 to 1/2 of the alert distance), the application will play one (1) "''**good way**''" beep; 
- 
-{{mp3play>sounds:sound_prox_1.mp3}} 
- 
-  * When going towards the location, while being in the middle circle area (from 1/2 to 1/4 of the alert distance), the application will play two (2) "''**good way**''" beeps; 
- 
-{{mp3play>sounds:sound_prox_2.mp3}} 
- 
-  * When going towards the location, while being in the center circle area (closer then 1/4 of the alert distance), the application will play three (3) "''**good way**''" beeps; 
- 
-{{mp3play>sounds:sound_prox_3.mp3}} 
- 
-  * When going away from the alert location, the application will play one (1) "''**wrong way**''" beep; 
- 
-{{mp3play>sounds:sound_out_1.mp3}} 
- 
-  * When going out of the alert distance circle, the application will play two (2) "''**wrong way**''" beeps and then stop sounds. 
- 
-{{mp3play>sounds:sound_out_2.mp3}} 
- 
-{{:icon_help.png?nolink}} The application repeats the sounds approximately every 3 seconds. 
- 
-{{:icon_help.png?nolink}} The GPS Position must available and turned on to activate this feature. You can completely close the application while using this feature, sounds will still be played. Be careful to leave your device access the open sky so the GPS can get your location, otherwise the notifications won't work properly.
