    Default Refresh Rate

    Working on getting this setup and I was wondering what everyone is using for the Default Refresh Rate for iCloud accounts.

    Thank you

    I started at 10minutes but it hammered the phone batteries. I have settled at 30minutes for the time being which seems mostly adequate and has only a slight effect on battery useage.

    I have been thinking about creating events for adjusting the polling interval based on location. That way after any static location changes, it starts polling more frequently to get better journey resolution. Worst case that only works if you travel for more than 40minutes of course...

    For me the primary purpose is to work the plugin alarm alongside the PIR occupancy in the house to stop the house becoming ‘unoccupied’ when you are sat still for a while, it works great for that. As I get instant response on arriving home and reliable sensing whilst at home.
