Presence has been a bit wonky recently.

I'm wondering if given the following information, someone can provide steps to sort this out.

This evening I returned home at 6:15, presence detected, all good. At 6:30 Hubitat thinks I departed. (I didn't - Still here!!)

Where could the disconnect be?

EDIT: 7:51 Present AGAIN! -- Been in the same spot...

I know it's not much help to you, but the same thing started to happen to me recently.

C8 / 2.4.2.131 - Samsung S22+

I tried changing the size of the geofence, didn't help.

:man_shrugging:

It's kind of an important part of "automation".... It doesn't just happen with my S22+. Others as well.... I've created a virtual switch for times like this, but would prefer it to be automatic.....

What i did and it kind of seems to be working is adding checking for Wi-Fi connection using Iphone Wifi extension (ignore the iphone name, works with android phones as well), and adding Combined Presence App to create a Virtual Presence device that combines difference presence sources.
It's a bit overwhelming at start when looking at it, but is actually much simpler once you start follor the instructions.

Thanks... I'll take a look!
