Hi @Zolden,

 

What device is your wife using? Try the following listed below:

  • Make sure that her device is showing on the enabled devices on Geofencing. If it does show, try to disable her device by going to "Mode" > Choose your Base Station > Tap/Click on the Pencil Icon on Geofencing > "Enabled Devices". After you save, try to go back and re-enable and see if that helps.
  • Try to check her device to make sure the app is running in the background and her location permission is on through her phone settings.

Were you able to check on her iPhone settings to see if her location services is on? Try to make sure she doesn't have "Low Power Mode" running. Make sure she also has Background App Refresh and Cellular Data turned on.

Every thing is set correctly and works perfect for Tado and Verisure.

I did the reconfiguration as suggested, nok status is the other Way  around. Now geofence only trigger on my wife’s phone.
