i was reading the release notes for 2022.4, and they mentioned that zones will now have a state showing the number of people in the zone. All my zones allways show a state of 0. is there something i need to do to get them to update?
You have to enter the zone. It should just work as long as your device trackers are gps
Thanks Petro. not sure what happened… they were all showing zero, then all of the sudden the home started showing me home. i’ve been home all day, so not sure why it had not updated. the wife’s location although she is at work, never updates with her being there. this is her tracker right now:
and this is the info for that zone:
even the history shows 0 all time:
But i get messages when she enters and leaves the zone through an automation i have.
I have the same problem. The automations respond to zone entering and exiting, persons state displays the correct zone, but zone state is always 0 and zone persons attribute is always void (except for home)
Judging from the _3 in the entity id for the zone, I’d guess you have multiple zones with the same name, and you are only counted against one of them.
