Hi Juriaan, All conditions and actions will wake up the car if necessary. ---

Thanks Bjørnar for your quick response. I just thought it would check every 240 minutes (my interval) and only once, not twice. Perhaps something else is waking the car and your app just receives the status change? I am guessing here. For now, I will stop checking the status, hoping to prevent battery drain and allow the car to enter sleep mode. ---

Hi guys! I am having trouble with using the geofence in this app. The only one working is home. Anyone who have a tip? Is does not seem that the app recognizes that the car is in a geofence… Best regards Arnfinn ---

If you check the condition: “Is at location”, you will see a drop down list with geofence locations that you have added, with name and longitude + latitude. ---

I notice that there is a lot of delay in this before the app notices that the car is moving. can I adjust this somewhere? ---

Check the “Data fetch interval” in settings. The minimum for this value is 1 minute. For streaming (when driving), the default value is 10 seconds between each update, but you can set a lower value. For streaming these values are updated: - Speed - Odometer - Longitude - Latitude - Shift state - Measure battery - Battery range - Distance from home - Location ---

So I made a flow that added my wife’s parking lot at work to a location. This went ok. But now I made a debug flow to send a notification to mo mobile when her Tesla is in geofence, and I am getting red fault, as if the car is not in the geofence… ---

You can find the current location of the car if you open this link [Homey Developer](https://developer.athom.com/tools/devices) and search for the car. The longitude and latitude capabilities. And you can open that location in google maps to see that it is correct. ---

So the official app from homey is gone? But this app is better and has more options? Maybe a little too nerdy, but I will choose my next car based on the integration options with domotics. Leaving my house in winter to get in a pre heated car… I love the idea 🙂 ---

You can change the “Data fetch interval” in settings or with a flow. The default is 60 minutes, and the minimum is 1 minute. You can read more about how the app works on the top of this page. ---

> [@balmli](#): > > When the vehicle is charging or driving, the state of the vehicle is checked every minute. Following that top of the page it should : When the vehicle is charging or driving, the state of the vehicle is checked every minute. I was driving and charging before. The only way to get live data and trigger actions while leaving or getting home is set the Data fetch interval to 1 minute, let detect, and then back to 60 minutes. Seems weird?
