Geofencing away/home mode is switching back and forth constantly. Even though I am home, my iPhone is on and working just fine, I get a notification that Geofencing is Away Mode followed by Geofencing is Home mode a few seconds later. Sometimes if I reset the base station and the app on my phone, it stops. Sometimes for a few minutes, sometimes for a few days. I do have a VPN on my phone and have tried disabling it but that doesn't work. It only happens when I am at home and it doesn't matter if the Schedule is in home Armed mode or not. This is driving me crazy and can't figure out what the problem is. Any thoughts on how to resolve this issue?

Geofencing is based on the phone's location so there's something going on with the phone's determination of where it is. Have you tried increasing the radius for GF? You may want to slog through the phone location settings to see if something works better than others.

Thank you so much for the right solution! I adjusted the GF radius from small to large and it resolved the issue completely.
