Geofencing routine that sends notification only

[alex_loo]

Context: "Feed" version of ARLO app.  Geofencing routine WITHOUT any change of mode.

Question:

For geofencing routine, if I have the following:

It does NOT send out any notification even when the select "specific people" leaves the zone.

Is this normal?

Hi @alex_loo 

Can you try creating a change mode rule to trigger a notification?

if it is a change mode rule, yes it triggers a notification.

But this is NOT what I am asking.  I want to know if a rule without mode change can still trigger notification.  Since it is possible from UI perspecitve.

This is not possible at the moment without a change mode rule. I let the team know, and if any enhancements are made I will let you know.

thanks.  it would be a good-to-have.  Since then I can use this feature to know when ARLO considers a particular device leaving/entering a geofencing zone.  Very useful for geofencing TROUBLESHOOTING.

I agree it would be useful for troubleshooting.

Also, it should not be possible to put actions in the action list that are ignored when it triggers.  Users shouldn't have to figure out what combinations of actions actually work.
