AutoLocation Fence Verification Method / Option to Help Prevent False Positives

[bzo...@gmail.com]

Good Morning -

I've been using AutoLocation with Tasker on my devices for a while now as well as other joao apps and really like it. Keep the great apps coming! My Tasks aren't complex, but not simple, either. There's one thing I do have a question about and need help with, though, please.

For my "Home" location (Geofence), I have the location and radius set up as it should be. The problem is that about 5 times a day when at home, it re-triggers the Profile/Task which is supposed to run when I enter the GeoFence. I know this for certain since I added a voice command to speak "At Home" at the beginning of the Task for testing. I realize that expanding the radius would eventually resolve this issue, however have another geofence close by.

When the GeoFence Monitor determines that I'm entering one of my fences, it is possible to have it wait until it's next location "check" or "poll" to verify that the results are the same until it tells Tasker that I've entered the Geofence?

For example, i don't know how often it checks my location (which is set to High), but let's say once a minute. Usually I assume the monitor determines that I have entered my "Home" GeoFence which instantly triggers the Tasker profile I have tied to it. Instead, I'd like for when it first detects I've entered the GeoFence, to wait 1 minute until it's next check, see if I'm still in the GeoFence, THEN trigger the Tasker task.

If this isn't possible - or - there's another / better method to help prevent false-positives besides expanding the Geofence's radius?

Thanks!

Hi there.

Have you tried the Wait Time option when long clicking a Geofence in AutoLocation?

thanks for your support and the detailed post :)
