Assigning a Location Notification

Associating a location to your Lists allows Marvelist to ping you a notification when you reach that location, prompting you to check a List that is relevant to that location.

We've found this particularly useful for shopping lists! Assign your favourite supermarket to a list and Marvelist will let you know when you arrive at that supermarket to check your shopping list.

Assign a list to your workplace so you're reminded to check your work tasks when you reach the office.

Here's how to set this up:

• Start by going to the Marvelist list you want to be notified about.
• Tap the 'Location' icon in the top right hand corner.
  • Marvelist will ask for access to your location services, this is not a requirement, but can help in pinpointing where you are currently and speed up assigning a location.
• Use the search box at the top of the screen to find the location you want to assign to the list.
  • Once found, a pin will be dropped on that location, tap the 'Select' button to assign that location to the list.
• If you're already at the location you want to assign to the list, simply tap and hold on the location to drop a pin and tap 'Select' to assign the location.

You'll then be taken back to your List with a confirmation that the location has been associated to the list.

A couple of things to note with regards location notifications:

• Location notifications are PER DEVICE. You must assign the location on each device you want to receive notifications on.
  • Location notifications are now stored centrally and will be offered to members of your Shared Lists. They have one chance to set up the same location notification as the List Owner.
• When sharing a list that has a location notification associated, the recipient does not receive the location you've assigned to the list. They must set up their own location notifications.
