Provided herein are methods and systems relating to location-based services such as providing a geofencing, outputting location-based information on a mobile device, varying transmissions to and from a mobile device, and providing location-based alerts. More specifically, a method can include receiving a selected location on a mobile device, monitoring a current location of the mobile device, determining when the current location of the mobile device is within the geofence, and initiating an action on the mobile device associated with the geofence and the selected location.

1. A method comprising: receiving a user input on a mobile device, the user input identifying a physical location;generating, on the mobile device in response to receiving the user input, a geofence around the physical location;monitoring, on the mobile device, a current location of the mobile devic
1. A method comprising: receiving a user input on a mobile device, the user input identifying a physical location;generating, on the mobile device in response to receiving the user input, a geofence around the physical location;monitoring, on the mobile device, a current location of the mobile device;determining, on the mobile device, when the current location of the mobile device is within the geofence; andinitiating an action on the mobile device, in response to determining that the mobile device is within the geofence, the action associated with the geofence and the physical location. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the receiving the user input identifying the physical location includes presenting a geocentric list of locations and receiving a selection from the geocentric list of locations. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the receiving the user input identifying the physical location includes presenting a map display and receiving a set of coordinates from the map display identifying the location. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the receiving the user input identifying the physical location includes receiving an address on the mobile device. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the generating the geofence includes defining, on the mobile device, a circular area around the selected location with a pre-defined radius. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the monitoring the current location includes the mobile device tracking the current location. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the monitoring the current location includes the mobile device periodically transmitting location data to a service provider. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the initiating the action on the mobile device includes sending an alert to a service provider. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the sending the alert to the service provider enables the service provider to send a notification to a device at the physical location. 10. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium including instruction that, when performed on a mobile device, cause the mobile device to: receive a user input on the mobile device, the user input identifying a physical location;generate, on the mobile device in the response to receiving the user input, a geofence around the physical location;monitor, on the mobile device, a current location of the mobile device;determine, on the mobile device, when the current location of the mobile device is within the geofence; andinitiate an action on the mobile device, in response to determining that the mobile device is within the geofence, the action associated with the geofence and the selected location. 11. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 10, wherein the instructions to receive the user input identifying the physical location include instructions to present a geocentric list of locations and receive a selection from the geocentric list of locations. 12. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 10, wherein the instructions to receive the user input the physical location include instructions to present a map display and receive a set of coordinates from the map display identifying the location. 13. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 10, wherein the instructions to receive the user input identifying the physical location include instructions to receive an address on the mobile device. 14. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 10, wherein the instructions to generate the geofence include instructions to define a circular area around the selected location with a pre-defined radius. 15. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 10, wherein the instructions to monitor the current location include instructions to cause the mobile device to track the current location. 16. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 10, wherein the instructions to monitor the current location include instructions to cause the mobile device to periodically transmit location data to a service provider. 17. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 10, wherein the instructions to initiate the action on the mobile device include instructions to send an alert to a service provider. 18. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 17, wherein the instructions to send the alert to the service provider instruction to instruct the service provider to send a notification to a device at the selected location. 19. A portable electronic facility comprising: central processing unit coupled to a memory device, the memory device containing instructions that, when executed by the central processing unit, cause the central processing unit to: receive a user input identifying a physical location, the user input received from an input facility;generate, on the portable electronic facility, a geofence around the physical location;monitor a current location received from a geolocation facility integrated within the portable electronic facility;determine, on the portable electronic facility, when the current location of the portable electronic facility is within the geofence;initiate an action, in response to determining that the portable electronic facility is within the geofence, the action associated with the geofence and the physical location. 20. The portable electronic facility of claim 19, wherein the instructions to initiate the action include instructions to send, via a data communication facility within the portable electronic facility, an alert to a service provider, the alert including data representative of the current location and identifying the portable electronic facility.
