Presence

Ideas & Suggestions

Could you please add funcitions to the presence functionality that allows the user to define home/ away by the connection to the LAN/ Wifi network.
This is possible via other tools like in the past “Smart Presence” https://apps.athom.com/app/nl.terryhendrix.smartpresence
but this app is not longer available for HOMEY 2.0

The PROs of this way are:

  • Defining home not only via the application on your phone, but over the ip of e.g. a visitor. Now your devisces wont turn off, or even will turn on if a visitor will enter the network ( if s.o. is actually at home, but does not have access to homey or the app)
  • GPS and geo-tracking is sometimes not accurate ESPECIALLY with the new battery saving functions on most phones, which can’t even be turned off completely in some cases (HUAWEI)

wow smarter presence isnt ported to 2.0? that blows my
setup to hell. is it a technical issue that makes it not
possible to be updated?

Somewhere i read that it can be installed by cli. I tried but can’t get it to work. (Maybe it’s me being stupid or because i don’t have a pc but a mac, i just couldn’t)

Maybe some developer can update it so we can install it from the athom app store…

Did u change line 28 in app.json?
The compatibility needs to be adjusted:

“compatibility”: “>=1.5.7”,

Yeah @Rocodamelshekima that part was easy :wink:
I can’t get the cli method to work with the commands in terminal and such.

Requesting for this too! An IP base presence detection would be excellent

Same. I don’t have the knowledge and that (plus ble) blocks me from going to 2.0

I checked it was updated to support 2.0.

I happily upgraded Homey. Plus the native Google
assistant support was too hard to resist

I don’t find to see it working, even updated the app…
Jumped to ebacons but still like wifi as backup
