Description
GEOFENCY enables fully automatic location-based time recording on iPhone, iPad, Mac & Apple Watch, where manual clock-in and clock-out becomes an absurdity of the past. Arrival and departure times are automatically recorded as soon as you enter or leave an interesting place – it works like magic! Of course all very energy efficient, thanks to the latest Geofencing technologies! With the integrated webhook feature you can even trigger your home automation system as you arrive or leave (e.g. switch on the lights when coming home)!
Ideal for automatic monitoring of working hours, client visits, lunch breaks or the stays on your favorite places! GEOFENCY offers the easiest and most effective way to MONITOR your DURATION OF STAYS on interesting places. Unpleasant manual time recording was yesterday!

REQUIREMENTS
For the best and most accurate monitoring results, Wi-Fi and location services should always be enabled for Geofency.
BATTERY USE
Continued use of GPS in the background can significantly reduce battery life. Geofency was designed to use GPS very sparingly and never in the background. The app relies mostly on cell tower + Wi-Fi locations. This has been carefully chosen to get the best battery life.

Ratings and Reviews
Extremely accurate, works great with Hubitat
After trying multiple options for geopresence with minimal success in Hubitat, I installed Geofency. It works great! I am now able to increase the functionality of my smart home to include activities like locking the door when I leave, unlocking the door when I arrive, turning on house lights (only when dark) upon arrival, adjusting the thermostats when leaving and arriving (saves on utility bills), and setting my home’s security status based on my presence just to name a few. Automatically logging time spent at designated locations (which is a core function of Geofency) saves me from needing to manually log time spent at each individual location. What is also great is that the software does not use your personal data for their own personal gain unlike some others. If you’re looking for an excellent geopresence tool you absolutely must check out Geofency!! Don
Amazing Application
Update: I’ve been using this app for a few years now and it is only gotten better. The developer is currently making an effort to improve the application. It works flawlessly and as advertised and I am very happy with my purchase. It runs in the background using little power, keeping track of your whereabouts in throughout the day You don't even realize it is running becasue you don't have to launch it. I've had it running for over a year and it has kept details about most every place I visit. I use it mostly to track doctors appt.'s. I have GeoFency remind me that I have arrived and not to forget to take notes and record a voice memo. It is a 10 star app in my book. Heck it could prove you were somewhere else when your Mother-in-law was egged and keep you out of jail. ;)
Significant locations requires work-around
Monitored locations still works, but after upgrading to a new iPhone the app refuses to update the significant locations. Re-installing didn't help either. May be an IOS 13 thing? And yes, the setting 'significant places' is on.
Update: did receive 2 responses from the developer - 2nd response fixed the issue:
1) Go to iOS Settings > Geofency > Location and change the setting from "Always" to "Never". In the view, go back one level for the setting to take effect, and then switch back to "Always“.
2) Go to iOS Settings > Privacy > Location Services > System Services > Significant Locations. Deactivate and activate the switch there and then restart the device once.
Started working after that for me!
