I am sorry - had to complain today.
I noticed that I got a new update to HSBuddy (either last night or this AM), and still I am having issues with HSBuddy and the geoFencing aspects.
About my setup:
- Samsung Galaxy S10+ with Location settings enabled to HSBuddy
- HS4 Pro installed and running fine - not seeing any errors in the logs
When i get in the car - the screen lock feature is disabled once the BlueTooth in the phone connects to the car. So I can simply touch the screen and open the phone. Sometimes I connect a USB cable so that I can use Android Auto (which does not properly function over BT).
I have my geoFencing set to one level below HIGH on the HSBuddy App. I have the 'fence' set to 0.10 miles.
Here is the issue I am seeing. I leave the house, and just about the same place (either direction I go) - I get the notification sound I have set for HSBuddy that I am "AWAY" - AWESOME. It is a little more than 0.10 miles from my home - but still this is working. What is NOT WORKING is the "HOME" (Arrive) setting. 95% of the time, I am coming home from the same direction as I left. Should be getting the "ARRIVED" message about the same place. It is not. I am usually at home and have already let myself in with my Schalge Z-Wave Connect lock with a PIN, and inside sometimes up to 10 minutes before I get the SOUND and message that I am HOME.
I have cleared the cache, made sure that the APP ACCESS to the LOCATION is set, everything I can think of. Makes no sense that the AWAY feature is working, just not the HOME. Right now until I can get this all working - I have only HSBuddy sending an SMS to my phone as to the STATUS (HOME or AWAY). Once I get this working as desired I will set it to unlock doors and turn on lights.
I can see in the logs the GPS data in the logs - so i know it is seeing that I am moving.
Looking for some help.
