Automation for entering and leaving Zones

Configuration
4

Try this:

- alias: notify on zone enter/leave
  trigger:
    - platform: zone
      entity_id:
         - person.brayden
         - person.jordyn
      zone: zone.centennial
      event: enter
    - platform: zone
      entity_id:
         - person.brayden
         - person.jordyn
      zone: zone.centennial
      event: leave
  action:
    - variables:
        event: "{{ 'left' if trigger.event == 'leave' else 'arrived at' }}"
        person: "{{ trigger.to_state.attributes.friendly_name }}"
        zone: "{{ trigger.zone.attributes.friendly_name }}"
    - service: notify.mobile_app_craigs_s20_mobile_app
      data:
        message: >
          {{ person + ' ' + event ' ' + zone }}
    - service: notify.mobile_app_richelles_s10_mobile_app
      data:
        message: >
          {{ person + ' ' + event ' ' + zone }}

You just need to add an enter and leave trigger for each zone. Unfortunately you can’t have one trigger for multiple zones or for leave and enter event.
Edit:
And please format your code correctly. Read the community guidelines here, point 11.
