APIs for Android.</p>

You can use the following techniques to optimize power consumption in your
apps that use geofencing:
</p>
<ul>
<li><p>Set the <a href="{@docRoot}android/reference/com/google/android/gms/location/Geofence.Builder.html#setNotificationResponsiveness(int)">
notification responsiveness</a> to a higher value. Doing so improves power consumption by
increasing the latency of geofence alerts. For example, if you set a responsiveness value of five
minutes your app only checks for an entrance or exit alert once every five minutes.
Setting lower values does not necessarily mean that users will be notified within that time period
(for example, if you set a value of 5 seconds it may take a bit longer than that to receive the
alert).</p></li>
<li><p>Use a larger geofence radius for locations where a user spends a significant amount of time,
such as home or work. While a larger radius doesn't directly reduce power consumption, it reduces
the frequency at which the app checks for entrance or exit, effectively lowering overall power
consumption.</p></li>
