Hi, presence only triggers when I open the app.
So if I arrive at home nothing is happening until i open the app on the phone, then I get the message “usewr arrived at home” same when I leave home. Is this something that will be fixed in the feature?
Yes settings privacy enable home/away is on.
That depends on the OS, on iOS that is not an issue.
I can force close all apps and presence detection keeps working for them, except for the Homey V2 app. To stay close to home, even the Homey V1 app does that without a problem.
Well, using the latest version of iOS and Homey I need to state that the issue occurs here as well. All the time.
Perhaps it’s really something in the (missing?) background communication between iOS and the App…
I’m using presence detection from the Home App of IOS now with a virtual device in Homey and let this virtual device switch between my presence with Homekit.
Works flawless for months now.
Will test the update to see if if this work around can be deactivated
As its been a while here:
Did you guys test it w/ the latest versions now? 3.0 and the according App (beta)?
I was nagging as well and using workarounds w/ tado and NUKI and AppleHomeKit (perhaps these are feeding Homey in the bg) but as of now - knock knock knock - it improved and works well.
