this does sound like a great app.
Ive thought about GPS set profiles a lot over the years, especially for things like at the cinema or at work. it would be great if you could: the first time you went to an area, select add new GPS Profile Location, it would then turn on GPS (if not on) and get a lock on your location if possible and turn gps back off again if not on before. You could then set the area of the GPS profile so 100m radias of location 1000m radius, city, etc. You could then also set accuracy. for instance maybe you need your phone to know the second you leave somwhere so for this GPS should be on when you are in this location to make sure you have the most up to date information. or you could have low accuracy so the phone could use the cell towers and when it detects you have moved initiate the previouse profiles (or selected second profile i.e. enable "this" profile when out of GPS location") obviosuly it should also be able to run apps based on location and turn off features. for instance when on the home wifi i dont need gps because im at home so it could turn it off.
also do you think the app could detect if you were moving at a rate of speed? say over 15 MPH, maybe could trigger a traveling profile with a set time delay so for instance you are moving over 15mph and stop at traffic you have a time delay of 10 mins before the profile will change which starts counting down you start moving again above 15mph and the timer stops and starts again from the top next time you stop moving. i only thought about this as someone mentioned auto texts respons's somehting like im driving in my car at the moment if your message is urgent please call me.
hope some of these features make it into an app.
