#55147 — Reminder app?

Do you know of an app that figures out where you are from your location and
reminds you to do stuff when you are close to a given place?

Let us say you are near a supermarket it reminds you to get certain foods
from that supermarket.

If you are near a hardware store it reminds you to get whatever is on your
hardware list.

If you are near a drug store it reminds you to refill your prescription.

You would have to set up the reminders ahead of time but the actual
reminders would be based on your location of being near the stores.

You've either got to be a blonde or a snowflake- or maybe even both ;-)

Google Keep will do this, but you have to specify a location in the
reminder. So it won't remind you when you're near *any* supermarket,
but it will remind you when you're near the particular supermarket that
you specified in the reminder.

Any reasonably recent version of Google Assistant can do that. Whenever 
you create a reminder, you're asked to choose a time or a place.
