    Hi All, thanks Paul (and rprade!) for yet more great work, in PHL1 i had three locations set as the same Lat,Long values but each one had larger radius eg:

    1) 39.469000, -76.960000 - 2 miles radius
    2) 39.469000, -76.960000 - 6 miles radius
    3) 39.469000, -76.960000 - 15 miles radius

    I would use location 3 the 'outer ring' entry event to turn the heat/AC on and location 1 inner ring to turn on driveway lights.

    My question is, is it still possible to have locations that overlap, i have a few events that failed to trigger, but run fine when manually run:

    PS. my office is 32 miles away so i wasn't already within the 'Outer ring - further' location when i left work.

    I am using Tasker to send data to the HS3 web service over a VPN connection which looks to be updating each child device as it should.


    Thank you,
    Mike
    I was just investigating this same issue. Is Mike PHL2 an iCloud based service? It's working for me, but not my wife and kids. They are iCloud only at this point, where I use iCloud, Geofency and IFTTT locations to trigger events. I had created some events for me that are iCloud only to see if I could duplicate the issue. I still need to get out of the house to test it, but that likely won't be till tomorrow.

    This one was the only event that fired. (2.5 miles from home)

    Got it. It might have been the "Record to Database". If I have an issue you'll be the second one to know.

    This is where I used to do it in PHL1 and when I try in PHL2 I only get the current spot as opposed to history.
    I am confused.

    I will try creating an event and see what happens.
    It is still a history map in PHL2. On the Map Viewer You can choose a user, an End Date and duration

    Do all that and select History

    In order to have history tracked, the positions must be logged to database

    PHL1 does not automatically create a history map.

    On the map viewer you can generate a history map or All Users map.
