Ever since I started using HA, about a month ago, I haven’t managed to make presence at home fully opeartional. The biggest problem is that my phone’s device tracker, using GPS, just not working. No matter where I am my person is always “At Home” state. Looking back at the history chart, I see it never changed. I tried removing the HA app from my phone and then reinstall it, and doing the same with the mobile app inegration on HA itself. Non of that made any change.
I also noticed recently that when I’m progarming new automations on the UI, using zone as trigger or condition, I don’t get my person entity as part of the entities option list, as used to before. But my person entity still available.
Forget about person for the moment, what about the actual device_tracker entity created by the companion app? Go to dev tools, find the entity, then see if that state changes.
I‘ve made the experience that only using Nabu Casa and the HA-app on all devices really works reliable. Apps like OwnTrack have been extremely unreliable for me.
Life360 earned a shitstorm for selling your location data (including children data) to third parties a few weeks ago.
I would stay away from using it!!
