Location reminders can be a real nuisance. I think it is generally better to "plan" things a bit in advance - e.g. tentatively move a few possible errands to the Today list, and, if I did not do them, just move them back.

It is certainly not a futile option is very important and interesting to have reminders by location.
Imagine that you will buy something in a city but do not know the day goes to her, then set a reminder? Location where you will be prompted to purchase this item when it is in that town or place.
Another example: You borrow something for a friend and that friend does not return, you create a reminder when you go to his house, you will be reminded to take the item back.
Reminder location is everything! -

Since you are still developing this feature, you can do what your competitors didn't. Do it right. Location based reminders based on address only is a fail.
Take a look at GeoBells. Its an app exclusive for location based reminders, so not really a replacement for any todo lists, but it do marvelous work.
You can set a task: Buy Milk, and at location you just type: Grocery Store. It will use the categories in Google Maps and simple list in a map all the groceries store in your city (or everywhere). So, anytime I go by a grocery store, no matter which one, it will read out loud my task. So while I'm driving I simple chance my route and go to that store.
Works for Pharmacies, Pizza place, Cinema, everything. It can also do actions (perhaps too much for a todo app). Example: Silence my phone when I'm in a cinema. Any cinema.
Keys points (all of them in GeoBells already)
- Use Google Maps category, so it works everywhere in the world, even in a small town in Brazil like mine.
- Read out load the task. When I'm driving I won't pull over the car just to look at what the phone is ringing about. Its important to read the task when triggered.
- Be able to choose distance of triggering. 1Km, 10 Km. Why? Because when I set: Fuel for the car when I'm in the city, I set to maximum 500 meters. If I'm travelling and I need the same task, I will set to 10 Km perhaps. Cause I will be on the highway and I need to know in advance a fuel station is nearby.
- List the groceries or cinemas or whatever in the map, focused on the city I'm in right now. Why? Because I can instantly see
if the keyword I typed (grocery, pizza, etc) is working. And I can locate on the map my favorite place and see if its also there.
I would definitely pay for that feature. I also said somewhere in this forum that I was waiting for Tasker plugin to become a premium user. This unfortunately did not happen. A good location reminder also worth premium.
