Question 4

iOS: Geo-availability

Accepted Answer

iOS: Geo-availability

Requirements

To use Geo-availability on your iPhone, the following requirements must be met:

Permission for incoming messages
Permission for exact location access, even if the app is running in the background (background access).

You can find set-up instructions for this here.

Important notes

The correct functioning of the geofences always depends on your smartphone, the system running there and the system settings made. This includes the current internet connection, the GPS signal, the charging status and battery-saving measures of the device, as well as the optimizations, made by iOS.

Your device decides when to check your position and thus whether you are in a geofence. We cannot force an automatic update of the geofence status. Delays of several minutes are normal here. In many cases, it is helpful to open a map application such as Apple Maps to trigger an immediate update.

Maximum number of active geofences

Due to a system default, a maximum of 20 geofences per app can be active at the same time. Therefore, within GroupAlarm, we are limited to a maximum of 20 geofences per iPhone. If you or your organizations use more than 20 geofences, you will receive a corresponding message and can deactivate individual organizations in the settings. If these geofences belong to the same organization, ask your organization administrator to remove unused geofences.

Question 5

Apple Watch issues

Accepted Answer

Apple Watch issues

If an Apple Watch is connected to your iPhone, you will receive notifications on the watch by default and no longer on your smartphone. However, you have the option to disable alert mirroring for GroupAlarm in the watch's notification settings. This will allow you to receive the alerts on your smartphone instead.

To test if the notification settings work after that, please follow this article.
