sposcar I hate code! Posts: 2 Reg: Aug 19, 2012 san diego 420	confirm \| cancel 08/19/12 08:32 PM (13 years ago) Can I create an app where people opt in when they are at one location then opt out when they leave? I want an app where a person can open the app, say "I'm here", there location is pinned on a map, and when they leave that location, they open the app, say "I'm gone" and their pin on the map disappears? Can I use the location map feature of buzztouch to do this? Any help would be extremely appreciated!!
