Android location based notifications

This is a great feature, but there's something that's bugging me.
If I set the location for some task, I will get notified about it every time I get close to that place. For example, I have a task "pick up rent invoice in mailbox" that is set to my home location. It is a recurrent task that is Due On the 3rd of each month. Problem is, it notifies me about it every day of the month, but the invoice will only be available a few days before the 5th of each month. I tried setting a Start Date, different Due Date options (Due by, Due on, etc), but the notification will still pop up throughout the whole month. How should I configure a recurring task to get the behavior I want from the Location based Notification of the Android App? |

An upcoming update to the Android app will fix this. It should be applying your filters to the tasks before triggering the alarm and it isn't.

What about iOS8? I have a similar problem: if I have a task with a 'due after xx/xx', I still get location based alarms every time I enter that location area. I am on iOS8.4 and Toodledo 3.3.1

This is a planed upgrade to both of our apps.

I don't filter out/hide any tasks on Android or the web so I want to make sure these other things will have an effect on location-based alarms. |

Yes, it will eventually take all of this into account once it gets smarter.
