  • Patent number: 11334920
    Abstract: Systems, device and techniques are disclosed for dynamically retrieving and monitoring geo-fence activity. A meta geo-fence may be identified based on a user device geolocation. The meta geo-fence having a radius that is dynamically generated to include previously defined geo-fences within or touching the meta geo-fence. User device geolocation may be monitored in relation to the defined geo-fences included in the radius of the meta geo-fence. A communication may be sent to the user device when the user device reports that the user device has entered or exited one of the previously defined geo-fences within or touching the radius of the meta geo-fence.

  • Publication number: 20220121508
    Abstract: Systems, device and techniques are disclosed for controlling location-based features with usage maps. An application running on a device may receive a current location of the device. The application may determine a sector of a usage map that corresponds to the current location of the device. The usage map may be associated with the application and he usage map may include a map of a geographic area divided into sectors. The application may modify the operation of a remote API call of the application based on the sector of the usage map that corresponds to the current location of the device by disabling or rate-limiting the remote API call.
