# Use Cases for Geofence App Push

You can use the [geofence app push](https://academy.useinsider.com/docs/geofence-app-push) for various use cases. Some are as follows:

## More use cases

Geofence app push campaigns trigger when a user **enters** or **exits** a location you define, so you can pair location context with your existing segments:

- **Welcome shoppers at the door:** Trigger an **enter** campaign on your store geofence to greet nearby customers with a timely offer as they arrive.
- **Follow up after a visit:** Trigger an **exit** campaign to thank customers as they leave, invite them back, or prompt a review.
- **Re-engage lapsed customers near a store:** Combine a store geofence with a segment of users who have not purchased recently to drive footfall.
- **Give out coupon codes:** Connect your Geofence Push campaign to a [Template from Push](/docs/apptemplate-from-push), trigger the push once the user enters the store geofence, and display a coupon code in an InApp once the user clicks it.

A single campaign fires on **one** state only: enter **or** exit. To cover both, create two separate campaigns. Refer to the [FAQ about Geofence App Push Notification](https://academy.insiderone.com/docs/faq-geofence-app-push-notification) for the full behavior.

## Good to know before you launch

Keep these limits in mind when you plan location-based journeys:

- **One state per campaign:** A campaign targets either the **enter** or the **exit** state, not both. Build two campaigns to cover entry and exit.
- **Up to 20 geofences per campaign**: You can attach **up to 20 geofences** to a single campaign; they are combined using the **OR** function.
- **20-geofence device limit**: Because of iOS and Android platform constraints, each device tracks at most 20 geofences at a time, the 20 nearest to the user's current location.
- **One push per 24 hours**: A user receives at most one push from the same geofence campaign every 24 hours; extra sends are dropped as **re-eligibility**.
- **Radius up to 2000 m**: The geofence radius must be **2000 meters or less**.
- **Continuous tracking** **requires "Always" permission**: On iOS, entry/exit is detected in the background only when the user grants the **"Always"** location permission; with **"While Using**," detection occurs only while the app is active.
