+====== Point alert ======
+----
+<wrap info>Available in Locus Map Pro only </wrap>
+===== What is it for? =====
+This feature **notifies** you (with beeping, a custom sound, vibration or a voice phrase) when a point from a selected group is **nearby** (in the defined distance). Thanks to it, you don't have to check on the map all the time for geocaches near your hiking route, for example.
+===== How to set it up? =====
+==== 1. Select points ====
+  * open **Folders** tab:\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:functions:poialert3.png?nolink |}}\\
+  * check the **folder with points** you want to be **notified of**
+==== 2. Set distance and alarm frequency ====
+  * open **Basic** tab: \\ {{ :manual:user_guide:poialert.png?nolink |}}\\
+  * **Distance** - set how far from the selected point Locus starts the alert
+  * **Notify when point is in range** - check to switch sound/vibration notifications on/off (visual notification on map stays on)
+  * **Notify once** - the alert goes on only once
+  * **Notify until stopped** - notification repeats in defined interval until stopped manually (red STOP button on screen) or when you're out of the alert distance.
+==== 3. Set type of notification ====
+Open **Notification** tab:\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:poialert2.png?nolink |}}\\
+=== Settings of sound ===
+  * **Disable** - all sounds are disabled, only screen and vibration alert work
+  * **Beep** - select number of beeps (1-10)
+  * **Select sound** - select any sound stored in your device memory
+  * **Text-to-speech** - enables voice prompts notifying of the name, distance, and direction of the point\\ Tap **Play** to check your sound settings.
+=== Settings of vibration ===
+Visible only when the vibrator is present (mainly in mobile phones)
+  * **Disable** - the device does not vibrate on notifications
+  * **Pattern** - set notification vibrating pattern, using three symbols: '.' for 200 milliseconds vibrations, '-' for 500 milliseconds vibrations and ' ' (space) for 500 milliseconds of silence.\\ Tap **Play** to check your vibration settings.
+==== 4. Tap START in the topbar ====
