In light of the [task prioritizatiion squad](https://forum.communityhealthtoolkit.org/t/collaboration-to-improve-task-prioritization-in-cht/4906), this is really a great conversation. Location based allocation of tasks would really be a good one, it’s been requested for in several [other conversations](https://forum.communityhealthtoolkit.org/t/product-design-exploration-task-sorting-and-grouping/1190) as well. I was also thinking of other approaches to this:

**On Location-Based Prioritization and the battery issue, how about:**

- **Cache last known locations** (not perfect, but good enough for recommendations).
- **Only turn on GPS when it’s actually needed** , like:
  - After finishing a visit, prompt: _“Want to check for nearby households?”_ → Quick location ping, then off.
  - Auto-grab location when adding/visiting a patient, then shut it off—or let them enter manually if offline.

**Other Prioritization Ideas (Some You’ve Probably Heard):**

1. **Smarter Sorting:**

2. **Nudges & Alerts:**

3. **Delegation:**
