    Find my iPhone plugin for HS3

    Plugin is now in the updater. I will be adding a configuration interface but for now please follow the following instructions.

    Run it once to create the HSPI_RSFindMyDevice.xml config file.

    Edit the file and set the following values: This is your itunes account
    <Username></Username>
    <Password></Password>

    Set the API key if you want maps and reverse geolocation - you can get to the API from this link: https://console.developers.google.com
    <GoogleApiKey></GoogleApiKey>

    The API must be enabled for the following services:
    Geocoding API
    Static Maps API

    Restart the plugin. More updates to following including GeoFencing events and actions


    New Version Release Notes:

    V1.0.1.1 - 11/30/2014
    --------------
    Updated to work with new Apple authentication scheme

    V1.0.0.8
    --------------
    Added a refresh button for each account. It can also be used in events.


    1.0.0.6-
    Added
    <DownloadGoogleMaps>true</DownloadGoogleMaps>

    1.0.0.5-
    Support for multiple accounts - you will need to add your username / password again to the xml file as the format has changed to support multiple accounts
    Support for update rate per account

    Added support for RadiusGeoFences. You can add as many as you need - do not remove the Value 0 RadiusGeoFence- you can edit the name though if you want.
    The Geofence device can be used in events.

    All geo coordinates are logged to the HSPI_RSFindMyDevice.csv file in the Log directory. This file is updated every minute.

    Code:
    <RadiusGeoFences>
        <RadiusGeoFence>
          <Name>None</Name>
          <Value>0</Value>
          <Latitude>0</Latitude>
          <Longitude>0</Longitude>
          <RadiusInMiles>0</RadiusInMiles>
        </RadiusGeoFence>
    </RadiusGeoFences>
    Plugin must be stopped when editing the xml file.

      It creates devices for all of your phones for geolocation. I will post a screenshot.

          Lots of potential. I want to give it a try when I start over with HS3 next week.

            How often does it poll the location? Just wondering about how to the minute geofencing would be. Thanks.

                I got it installed and working. As it stands now though I can't really do anything with it. Looking forward to updates. Lots of potential I think

                    Not sure of the possible capabilities but some ideas i was thinking about which may already be possible......

                    If your kids iphone does not arrive at school or home by x time send a text/email

                    If its between midnight and 6 am and battery level drops below 20% run an event to alert you to charge.

                    If you arrive at home and battery is below x percent run an event to remind you to charge.

                    If you arrive at home and your alarm system had tripped set off phone alarm as a warning

                    I would like if i am arriving at home start a timer fir blue iris plug in not to record and email for 10 minutes. Hate tons of emails as i unload the car etc.

                    I think others will have much better ideas.

                      Where can I get an API key? when looking here: https://developers.google.com/maps/signup?hl=nl they say a key is not available/necessarily.

                      the status of my root device keeps saying : Initializing

                      This looks like a really nice plugin with a lot of potential!

                        I found it. Only reverse geocoding doesn't work. Which service should I enable to get this to work?

                          See my updated first post for the required services. I also will be releasing a new version today that has Radius based Geofences that can be triggered on.

                            It updates every minute. I used it today to record a 20 mile bike ride and then plot it out. It was pretty accurate.
