Hi, I found Try This solution,

We must implement PendingIntent and Location Manager. The location manager receives the user's current location, and when the user enters a region, he will dismiss the pending code snippet as follows:

//---use the LocationManager class to obtain locations data--- lm = (LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE); //---PendingIntent to launch activity if the user is within some locations--- PendingIntent pendIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity( this, 0, new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("http://www.amazon.com")), 0); lm.addProximityAlert(37.422006, -122.084095, 5, -1, pendIntent); 

addProximityAlert, in which we can set the area (radius for tracking users) here is more detailed information about the addProximityAlert method.
