Request: Location based background
- It would be nice to have an app that automatically changed the background based on your location.
Examples:
at beach make bg a wave
at school/parents house make bg something more appropriate
at work make it professional
What would be even cooler is an app that dealt with changing more settings than just the wallpaper based on location. This could include the profile, icon layout (priority so that home screen icons change (i dont need my browser or music player if im at home)), etc.
I know there are profile changers based on location in testing or for purchase, but an all in one, or even just a wallpaper switcher would be killer!03-13-09 08:28 PMLike 0 - Another cool feature would be if u could select a calender event and attach a wallpaper switch to that, that way, lets say, when heroes was going to come on, my background would switch to a heroes background. I could even just set it up so that my background would switch whenever i had class, that way its different whenever im at school.03-13-09 08:31 PMLike 0
- This is pretty close at least for sound profiles, if they can do this backgrounds and such should be easy.

If the latter it would drain your battery as fast as if you left TeleNav/VZNav running all day every day.03-13-09 08:42 PMLike 0
