1. A method comprising:
- determining, by a first wireless device, a first estimated distance between the first wireless device and a second wireless device, the second wireless device in wireless communication with the first wireless device;
determining, by the first wireless device, a first level of urgency from a plurality of urgency levels based on the first estimated distance;
determining, by the first wireless device, a first alarm to be presented by the second wireless device based on the first level of urgency;
causing, by the first wireless device, the selected first alarm to be presented on the second wireless device;
determining, by the first wireless device, a second estimated distance between the first wireless device and the second wireless device, wherein the second estimated distance is greater than the first estimated distance;
determining, by the first wireless device, a second level of urgency based on the second estimated distance;
determining, by the first wireless device, a second alarm to be presented by the second wireless device based on the second level of urgency, the second alarm configured to be more urgent than the first alarm; and
causing, by the first wireless device, the selected second alarm to be presented on the second wireless device.
