Technology has transformed the cell phone from being a mere phone to become an indispensable medium for contact, information and entertainment. One of the most common features of mobile communication is
Location Management
, which keeps track of the locations of the mobile users who leave the home location and roam into foreign network. Location Based Service (LBS) plays an important role in the rapidly evolving world of mobile applications. In this paper, a novel personalized application using location based service has been proposed and implemented. When the mobile user is away from its home location, he/she can launch that application which automatically sends SMS to those mobile numbers present in the “contacts” applicable to visitor location i.e., friends and relatives in the visitor location.
