Add Features
The Movement SDK also offers features which you can use to augment your in-app experience, bringing location to the forefront to offer more compelling interactions to your users.
Journeys
Journeys allows partners to build powerful, location-aware experiences. You can use Journeys to power in-store & curbside pickup, delivery tracking, location-based marketing, and more.
When a user is ready to embark on a journey (i.e. they tap on "I'm on my way"), Journeys will start monitoring for their arrival, provide live ETAs throughout the way, and automatically detect when a user has arrived at their destination.
Requirements
- Movement SDK v4.0.0+
- Background Location & Precise Location Enabled
- While we recommend ensuring your app has background location and precise location enabled, the Journeys functionality will work with the “When In Use” permission, provided that your app uses the
startForeground
functionality to enable always on location collection.
- While we recommend ensuring your app has background location and precise location enabled, the Journeys functionality will work with the “When In Use” permission, provided that your app uses the
Required NotificationHandler
Include the following delegate methods to track journey state/eta/etc. Foursquare will return one of the following journey states:
- In Progress: The journey has started successfully and will now send regular updates.
- Approaching: The user is now approaching the destination.
- Arrived: The user has arrived at the destination.
- Completed: The journey has been completed. This is a user-generated action
- Canceled: The journey has been canceled. This is a user-generated action.
public abstract class NotificationHandler {
…
public void handleJourneyUpdate(@NonNull Context context, Journey journey)
…
}
Available Methods
Include the following methods to ensure the correct Journeys behaviors are tracked.
// method
MovementSdk.startJourney(destinationId: String, destinationType: JourneyDestinationType, metadata: Map<String, String> = emptyMap(), callback: ((Result<Journey, JourneyException>) -> Unit)? = null)
// usage
MovementSdk.get().startJourney(venueId, JourneyDestinationType.VENUE) { result ->
if (result.isErr) {
// handle error
return@startJourney
}
}
// method
fun getCurrentJourney(context: Context): Journey?
// usage
MovementSdk.get().getCurrentJourney(this)?.let { journey ->
// do something with journey
}
// method
fun completeJourney(callback: ((JourneyException?) -> Unit)? = null)
//usage
MovementSdk.get().completeJourney { err ->
if (err != null) {
// handle error
return@checkinJourney
}
}
// method
fun checkinJourney(callback: ((JourneyException?) -> Unit)? = null)
//usage
MovementSdk.get().checkinJourney { err ->
if (err != null) {
// handle error
return@checkinJourney
}
}
// method
fun completeJourney(callback: ((JourneyException?) -> Unit)? = null)
//usage
MovementSdk.get().completeJourney { err ->
if (err != null) {
// handle error
return@checkinJourney
}
}
Error Handling
Using the exception handler:
MovementSdk.with(
MovementSdk.Builder(this)
…
.exceptionHandler { ex ->
// handle error
}
)
Get Current Location
Current Location is the most comprehensive of the in-app features, allowing you to get precise place information for any user who has given your app permission to use location.
For e.g you may want to display a nearby venue to your user, or you may want to determine whether or not to send an in-app notification or display a modal if your user is at or near a specific geofence.
Note: This does not require always on background location and can also handle location scenarios while your users are in motion.
Using Current Location you can:
Get Current Place
Get the same place name, category, and chain information you would receive in the background callbacks in real time in your app.
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
new Thread(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
Result<CurrentLocation, Exception> currentLocationResult = MovementSdk.get().getCurrentLocation();
if (currentLocationResult.isOk()) {
CurrentLocation currentLocation = currentLocationResult.getResult();
Log.d("MovementSdk", "Currently at " + currentLocation.getCurrentPlace().toString() + " and inside " + currentLocation.getMatchedGeofences().size() + " geofence(s)");
} else {
Log.e("MovementSdk", currentLocationResult.getErr().getMessage(), currentLocationResult.getErr());
}
}
}).start();
}
Get Matched Geofences
If you utilize the explicit geofence functionality, Current Location will return any Geofence Events, e.g if your user is currently inside one (or many) of your drawn geofences.
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
new Thread(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
Result<CurrentLocation, Exception> currentLocationResult = MovementSdk.get().getCurrentLocation();
if (currentLocationResult.isOk()) {
CurrentLocation currentLocation = currentLocationResult.getResult();
Log.d(currentLocation.getMatchedGeofences().size() + " geofence(s)");
} else {
Log.e("MovementSdk", currentLocationResult.getErr().getMessage(), currentLocationResult.getErr());
}
}
}).start();
}
Get Last Known User State
The general location context information delivered through the SDK’s User States features return city, state, zip and country level information - including lat/long coordinates - for all users, in addition to home, work, traveling, commuting for users who have enabled always on location. Please see Access User States for more information.
You can access User State in one of two ways:
- Subscribing to changes via the
NotificationHandler
callbacks
@Override
public void handleUserStateChange(@NonNull Context context, @NonNull UserStateNotification notification) {
// Process the new user state however you'd like:
UserState userState = notification.getUserState()
for (UserState.Component component : notification.getChangedComponents()) {
Log.d("Changed Component", component.name)
}
}
- Accessing via the MovementSDK Instance
MovementSdk.get().userState()
Receive Geofence Events
The Movement SDK allows geofencing around a configurable set of venues or points. Geofences can be set for the venues, categories, or chains of your choosing. By default, Foursquare will use its knowledge of the venue's location to return the right fence for a given place. You may also configure a radius of your choosing, but we recommend letting the SDK pick the right one to give you the optimal experience.
Support for polygon shapes and arbitrary latitude/longitude points are also available. This allows greater customization and removes the reliance upon geofencing only Foursquare venue locations.
Why Use Geofences
For use cases that rely on accuracy, regular Movement SDK place visit detection is superior to geofencing. However, there are certain instances where geofencing is preferable:
- When speed and proximity to a specific subset of venues is more important than accurately detecting visits there.
- When it’s more important to know if a user is nearby a certain place rather than visiting.
- When you want to track when users that are en-route to a specific venue, and you want to know as soon as they arrive.
Geofencing runs independently alongside regular Movement SDK visit detection so you can still get the benefit of understanding everywhere your users go while enabling additional use cases.
Event Types
Geofences have five potential event types that are delivered directly to the client and through an optional webhook:
Event Type | Description |
---|---|
entrance | Triggered on the first GPS signal that is received inside of the geofence. |
dwell | Triggered after the user has "dwelled" within the geofence for a configurable length of time. Default is 1 minute. |
venue confirmed | Triggered when the device has dwelled inside a geofence radius and confirmed a stop at the venue within the radius. Only available in SDK versions 2.1.2 or greater |
exit | Triggered on the first GPS signal that is received outside of the geofence. |
presence | Triggered when the device is in a geofence radius during a get location request. Only available in SDK versions 2.1 or greater |
Receiving Events
To receive geofence events on the client, add the event handler below:
// In your implementation of the NotificationHandler, add:
@Override
public void handleGeofenceEventNotification(Context context, GeofenceEventNotification GeofenceEventNotification) {
List<GeofenceEvent> geofenceEvents = GeofenceEventNotification.getGeofenceEvents();
// Code to handle geofenceEvents...
}
Geofences will need to be set to a specific Foursquare venue, chain, category or shape (see below). For example, a partner could set up geofences for Foursquare HQ, all coffee shops, and all Chick-fil-a’s. You can also set up a geofence for an arbitrary lat/lng or custom polygon shapes. For Foursquare venues, this means that some venue harmonization may need to take place beforehand if you already have a specific list of places you want to geofence.
Note: Geofences are set up globally across all users of the app. User specific geofences are not yet something we provide.
A geofence event will contain the following:
Field | Description |
---|---|
eventType | entrance , dwell , venueConfirmed , exit , or presence . |
venue | Same as regular Movement SDK venue object. |
categoryIDs | Array of categoryIDs used by triggered geofence. |
chainIDs | Array of chainIDs used by triggered geofence. |
partnerVenueID | String of harmonized venueId. |
location | Object containing location information about the geofence event. |
timestamp | Unix/epoch timestamp in milliseconds of when the event occured. |

Geofence Management
Geofences can be managed through the Geofence builder in your Developer Console or via our Geofence API.
Set Custom User Data
The Movement SDK enables developers to set custom user unique identifiers in addition to or as a replacement. This is common if you want to tie an SDK event to a specific user in your own database or in a third-party integration.
For example, if your app is using a mobile number and/or an email as a user unique identifier, you can decide to add one or both to your SDK events. Once set, the custom user data will be passed along in the SDK webhook payload.
Where to set custom user data
Generally, we recommend that you set custom user info or user unique identifiers, as soon as you have a way to identify your user i.e upon logging in or once you have their session in the app.
While you do not need to worry about modifying the Movement SDK when a user revokes location permissions, if a user logs out of your app, you should call MovementSdk.clearAllData()
to reset any unique identifiers that you may have configured.
Examples
UserInfo userInfo = new UserInfo();
// the String myCustomUserId would be a previously set variable that stores the user's unique id:
userInfo.setUserId(myCustomUserId);
// You can also set other custom fields using:
userInfo.put("+123456789", "phoneNumber");
userInfo.put("[email protected]", "emailAddress");
// Starting in v2.1.2, you have the ability to persist userinfo across sessions:
MovementSdk.get().setUserInfo(userInfo, persisted: true);
// To unset persisted fields:
MovementSdk.get().setUserInfo(null, persisted: true)
val userInfo = UserInfo().apply {
// the String myCustomUserId would be a previously set variable that stores the user's unique id:
setUserId(myCustomUserId)
// You can also set other custom fields using:
set("+123456789", "phoneNumber")
set("[email protected]", "emailAddress")
}
// Starting in v2.1.2, you have the ability to persist userinfo across sessions:
MovementSdk.get().setUserInfo(userInfo, persisted: true)
// To unset persisted fields:
MovementSdk.get().setUserInfo(null, persisted: true)
Testing
There are two ways to test and confirm that you're successfully setting custom user data, via:
Access User States
User states allow you to more accurately interact, or not interact, with your users based on their state. For example, you might not want to send a notification to any users that are at home but you may want to remind them of a great promotion while they are on their way to work or on vacation.
Home and Work
As users of your app begin to establish regular behavior (usually after 3-7 week days), the Movement SDK will attempt to determine their home and work locations. This is a foundational feature of the SDK that is often used in the calculation of other user states.
Note: The home and work locations that the SDK determines are a generalized "area", not a specific address. Instead of a specific venue, the arrival/departure events will designate the
locationType
ashome
orwork
instead ofvenue
. For example, a webhook payload for a work arrival might look something like this:
{
"VisitId": "4c4b64fdd807ee002cba1560",
"eventType": "placeArrival",
"timestamp": 1548444925000,
"placeEvent": {
"venues": [],
"confidence": "high",
"locationType": "work",
"arrivalTime": 1548444925000
},
"lat": 41.889282,
"lng": -87.62858,
"user": {
"adid": "40C23EBD-E21A-4ACC-A915-B1C80BDAF4FE",
"userId": "CB25EFFB-C2B2-4E0F-B0E9-55C05BEFA4D4"
},
"installId": "CB25EFFB-C2B2-4E0F-B0E9-55C05BEFA4D4",
"sdkType": "iossdk",
"sdkBuild": "2.4.2",
"segments": [
{
"segmentId": 162,
"name": "The Foursquare Coffee Drinker - U.S."
}
]
}
To check if a user has configured their home/work locations, you can see if this has been set by checking the hasHomeOrWork
property:
FrequentLocations.hasHomeOrWork(context)
Note: It's possible that you won't want to process any visits or only trust visits that have a 'High' confidence until home/work has been set. This is due to the fact that a user's home is not in our venue database, so we may be attributing 'home' visits to a venue nearby until we learn that this is in fact their home.
Additional States
Non Home and Work user states are accessible via the lastKnownUserState
property on the MovementSDKManager
instance. This object will have a coordinate
, timestamp
and a state
property.
Note: It is always a good idea to check the
timestamp
andcoordinate
of this property, as it’s possible that the user may have moved since the last time the user state was updated.
If you'd like to be notified of any changes in user state, you can do so via thehandleUserState
callback in the Android SDK.
Travel
We calculate the travel state by observing users home/work visit patterns. States trigger when users deviate from those patterns in a way that signifies traveling. This can be useful if you want to send targeted messaging that relates to a user traveling, as opposed to being in their normal home/work routine.
Commute
The SDK defines commuting as when a user is moving some distance between one's home and place of work on a regular basis. This can be useful, for example, if you want to send targeted messaging that relates to their morning or evening commute: "Need a pick me up? Stop by and grab a cup of joe on your way into the office."
Location Context
As part of enhancing and extending User State, the SDK also provides an additional Location Context.This can be useful for providing a contextual notification based on a regional change in your user's location. For example, your user entering the City of Wheaton.
The Location Context includes the following:
- State
- City
- Postal Code
- Country
- DMA
Examples
MovementSdk.get().userState()
For examples of how user states are sent via webhook events, see the webhook examples.
Provide Visit Feedback
One of the best ways to help us improve the accuracy of the Movement SDK and where we think devices are located is by providing feedback about a user's visit. The more feedback we get, the smarter, faster and more accurate visits from the SDK become. We provide the following methods to provide feedback.
Confirm and Deny a Visit
You can easily confirm whether a visit is accurate or not (and why). All you need is the VisitId
from the original visit.
/\*\*
- @param VisitId The visit ID from the notification that is sent to you.
- Note not all enter notifications have visit ids.
- @param feedback The type of feedback you want to leave for the visit
- @param actualVenueId If you were at another venue than the one you were notified.
- Pass the actual venue ID here.
\*/
public static void leaveVisitFeedback(@NonNull String VisitId, @NonNull VisitFeedback feedback, @Nullable String actualVenueId)
The available feedback options are:
Feedback | Description |
---|---|
VisitFeedback.CONFIRM | The visit was at the correct venue. |
VisitFeedback.FALSE_STOP | The user did not stop anywhere. If you are unsure, use deny |
VisitFeedback.WRONG_VENUE | The wrong venue was detected. A Foursquare venue id can optionally be included to identify the correct venue. |
VisitFeedback.DENY | Generic feedback that something was incorrect. If your feedback interface doesn’t allow for wrongVenue or falseStop or you are unsure, use this. |
An example providing wrongVenue
feedback with the correct venueId:
MovementSdk.leaveVisitFeedback(visitId, VisitFeedback.WRONG_VENUE, "4ed92126f5b92139871ce962");
Check-in at a FSQ Venue
If you know a device is at a specific Foursquare venue, irrespective of receiving a SDK Visit, you can also inform the SDK by providing the Foursquare venue ID:
//\*\*
- @param venueId The foursquare venue ID where you believe the device is currently at.
\*/
checkInWithVenueId(@NonNull final String venueId)
An example:
final String foursquareHQVenueId = "4ef0e7cf7beb5932d5bdeb4e";
MovementSdk.checkInWithVenueId(foursquareHQVenueId);
Check-in at a Partner Venue
For partners that have already harmonized their venues with Foursquare, irrespective of receiving a SDK Visit, you can also inform the SDK that a device is at a venue by providing the partner's harmonized venue ID:
/**
* @param venueId A partner venue ID, that is harmonized with Foursquare, where you believe the device is currently at.
*/
checkInAtVenueWithPartnerVenueId(@NonNull final String venueId)
An example:
// (string) venueId is a previously set variable that consists of an existing harmonized partner's venue ID.
MovementSdk.checkInAtVenueWithPartnerVenueId(venueId);
