Scene and Geofencing.

[Squill]

I have a scene that is set for geofencing for when I arrive home at night to have some of the lights come on. It is set for only to activate after sunset. Well tonight I have been home for most of the afternoon but tonight the lights went on but I was in the house with my phone. How come the scene activated when it is set in the geofencing to only come on when I arrive home after sunset?

Are you the only person in the house that is using geofencing on the system, or is there a second (or more) person that also uses geofencing?
Is this on an iPhone or Android device?

[Squill]

Yes as of now i am the only person in the house. it is an iPhone.

It depends on the GPS accuracy of your iPhone.

Here's Apple's suggestions to improve GPS accuracy: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203033

To use multiple people on the system, do you have them log in under the same Id or can they log in as a different user? If they log in as a separate user, does the system know when everyone is gone or does it just fire a scene every time someon returns?

Thanks. I am the only one on the system. They just went on now. I just happen to be home. Strange. None of the scenes are checked so I have no idea why they went on.

To have multiple people log into the same bridge, they all have to use the same email address and password.

Squill,

If the lights are turning on, and there are no scenes set to geofencing, and no scheduled scenes at the time, then could you please send us a Feedback file (Settings > Help > Send Feedback) while you are on the local Wifi, the time the lights came on when they weren't supposed to come on, and the name of the lights that came on?

So if my fiancé and I both have the app set up with the same email an password, will the bridge know when only one of us leaves or will it run the goodbye scene even though my fiancé is still home?
