What is the best Android geofencing and Google Play Services Location alternative?
Radar is more powerful than native Android geofencing. Radar builds on top of Google Play Services Location to support unlimited geofences and polygon geofences. Radar also supports home, work, traveling, place, chain, and category detection, even if you haven't set up geofences for those places. Radar is a full-stack solution with iOS and Android SDKs, an API, a dashboard, webhooks, and integrations.
