Partial A basic UI is simple, but reliable low-power continuous background geolocation tracking and geofencing across iOS and Android require significant platform-level engineering.
What it would actually take: The architecture requires native iOS (CoreLocation) and Android (FusedLocationProvider) background daemons carefully tuned to manage OS battery limits, doze modes, and aggressive background killing. The backend needs a high-throughput geospatial ingestion pipeline (e.g., Go/Node with PostGIS/Redis geohashing) to process real-time coordinate streams and trigger instant webhook/push notifications for boundary transitions.
