Compatibility - Support for iOS 27 New Features - Precise exit with vehicle (Premium): When a selected vehicle connects via CarPlay or hands-free while you are inside an area, GeoHook starts precise location tracking for up to five minutes. The exit is detected right at the area boundary; the exit action runs only once the exit is detected. Several vehicles can be selected per location - New Shortcuts action “Vehicle connected”: a Shortcuts automation on a Bluetooth or CarPlay connection gives GeoHook background running time, so precise exit also starts when GeoHook is not currently running - Setup help in the vehicle selection: step-by-step instructions, a button that opens the Shortcuts app, and when the automation last woke GeoHook - New “Precise exit with vehicle” guide in English and German, available directly from the app - Separate notifications when a precision session starts for entry or exit; the event history shows whether a precision session was active for an entry or exit - The help assistant can check your setup (with a subscription): with “Diagnostics” turned on, it sees permissions, configuration and recent triggers and finds the cause of problems. Settings → Support & Diagnostics shows exactly which data is sent; coordinates, full webhook URLs and credentials never leave the device - Help assistant answers can be copied and shared. The assistant is now available on every screen by default through a floating button. Press and hold it to drag it anywhere on the screen; hide it in Settings → Support & Diagnostics Improvements - Deleting a vehicle now asks for confirmation and shows which actions will be disabled or changed and for which locations precise exit will be turned off. Actions whose only condition was the deleted vehicle are disabled so they do not fire without a vehicle - Tesla vehicles are recognized as “Tesla” during iBeacon setup - The chat in Settings and the floating chat button now show the same conversation - The help assistant now runs on Anthropic's Claude Haiku 5.5 AI model Bug Fixes - Vehicle setup now lists only CarPlay and hands-free connections. Bluetooth music-only ports are hidden and matching ports are grouped together - When approaching through a lead-in area, precise tracking switched off and back on with every location update and sent the precision session start notification several times in a row. Precise tracking now stays on until you arrive, and the notification is sent only once

New Features - New “Contact Support” entry point: contact our support team with questions, problems and ideas directly from the app Bug Fixes - Actions in lead-in areas can now be tested manually after saving - Changes to existing actions in lead-in areas are reliably persisted when you save the action. Unsaved changes remain unavailable for testing - Vehicle detection via Tesla Phone Key and iBeacon after an app restart: When GeoHook had been terminated and iOS relaunched it in the background while approaching an area, the vehicle counted as not nearby until you manually tapped “Test iBeacon”, and webhooks with a vehicle condition were skipped. GeoHook now remembers the subscription status across restarts and no longer temporarily tears down beacon monitoring at launch - Vehicle detection via Tesla Phone Key and iBeacon in the background: If iOS delivers no signal-strength readings during the approach, GeoHook trusts the last detected beacon status again instead of wrongly treating the vehicle as absent - “Help & Support Chat” now works reliably - Webhook tests are only available after the area, action and changes have been saved. Clear guidance explains unsaved settings, an empty webhook URL or an action already in progress and tells you what to do next; the guidance is also accessible with VoiceOver - For areas that have not been saved yet, the action path now shows save instructions instead of incorrectly reporting “disabled” or “Unknown”. Guidance in the English interface is fully translated - Manual tests of exit actions now send the correct “exit” trigger type Improvements - The help chat uses the latest guides and FAQ from the GeoHook website and directs you to email support when a problem remains unresolved - New step-by-step ntfy guide in English and German: set up push notifications when entering or leaving an area

Bug Fixes - Webhooks with username and password (Basic Auth) now work behind cloud services that redirect to a different address — for example Loxone Remote Connect. Previously the credentials were lost during the redirect and the target device responded with “401 Unauthorized”. GeoHook now answers the target server's authentication challenge directly and securely forwards credentials on redirects within the same domain

New Features - GeoHook Premium (new subscription): Movement conditions for webhooks — only trigger when you're on foot, cycling, non-motorized, or motorized. GeoHook evaluates your iPhone's motion detection from the minutes before entry - Any car as a vehicle condition (Premium): Vehicles with CarPlay or a Bluetooth hands-free system are now detected directly via the audio connection — no iBeacon or Tesla Phone Key required - CarPlay condition (Premium): Only trigger webhooks when your iPhone is connected to CarPlay (or was moments before) — works on entry and exit - Driving mode condition (Premium): Tie webhooks to driving mode — via a Shortcuts automation on the system Driving Focus, or the GeoHook Focus filter on a custom Focus - Premium includes all iBeacon and Tesla Phone Key features; available as single and Family plans - Map home screen (iPhone): All areas on a full-screen map with zone circles and a draggable map sheet. Tapping focuses the zone and shows radius, distance, and your recent real trigger points (entry/exit) right on the map - Live motion status: The Status screen shows the currently detected motion state, CarPlay connection status, and connected badges for CarPlay/hands-free vehicles — with a discreet indicator on the home screen when you use movement conditions Improvements - Refreshed app design with a new color language, map cards, and reworked lists - Flowchart and event history show movement conditions with a clear per-condition reason

Bug Fixes - More reliable Tesla Phone Key and iBeacon exit detection: iOS sometimes fails to report when a beacon-equipped device leaves an area, which could cause GeoHook to incorrectly assume the device was still nearby and fire (or skip) a webhook based on that stale state. GeoHook now continuously checks the beacon signal strength during an active precision session — from the moment precision monitoring starts until the trigger point is reached — and can detect a missing device even when iOS doesn't report the exit - Additional safety nets for region entry/exit detection (significant location changes, visit events, motion-gated location refresh) - Suppress false re-entries when iOS wake events contradict the cached region state - Recover automatically when iOS suspends background location activity Improvements - Status screen now shows your subscription activation date and last renewal date

New Features - iBeacon Support (subscription required): Use iBeacons for precise area detection (10–30m range) or as vehicle presence triggers — with automatic nearby beacon discovery and a catalog of 25+ known manufacturers - Tesla Phone Key (subscription required): Use your Tesla's Bluetooth Phone Key as a webhook trigger condition — no server queries, direct Bluetooth detection - Precision Monitoring (iOS 17+): High-accuracy background location session for more reliable triggers near area boundaries — with optional duration limit if you frequently linger near an area without entering it - Advanced Arrival: Define up to 4 lead-in zones with directional approach detection for earlier, more reliable triggering - Subscription Plans: Tesla & iBeacon single and Family plans via the App Store - Debug Support: Request remote diagnostics directly from the app — our team can review your logs and help troubleshoot issues - Flowchart View: A visual flowchart shows exactly how GeoHook decides whether to fire a webhook - Event Timeline: Detailed timeline showing the complete webhook execution flow with request metrics Improvements - Smart Battery Saving: Location tracking automatically suspends when you're confirmed inside a region - Simplified Vehicle Conditions: Conditions are now configured per webhook instead of per location - Improved webhook delivery via direct HTTP transport - Massively improved stability of all background network connections - Removed raw BLE support — not reliably usable in the background on iOS. Vehicle detection now uses iBeacon and Tesla Phone Key Bug Fixes - Fixed entry detection when briefly leaving and re-entering a region - Fixed exit events not triggering under certain conditions - Various fixes for subscription handling and location monitoring

New Features - Vehicle Detection: Conditionally trigger webhooks only when your vehicle is nearby (or is not nearby) via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) - AI Assistant: A built-in AI chat assistant helps you with any questions or issues about the app - The AI assistant can tell you whether your specific vehicle supports Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) — and suggest alternatives like standalone BLE beacons if it doesn't - Any BLE-capable device can be used as a trigger — not just vehicles. Use a BLE beacon, tag, or any other Bluetooth device as a geofence condition - Configure vehicle conditions per location (entry/exit separately) or per individual webhook - Visual car icon indicator shows which locations and webhooks have vehicle conditions configured Improvements - Streamlined Vehicle Conditions UI in location settings

New Features: - Exit Actions: Configure separate actions for when you leave a location, in addition to entry actions - Webhook payloads now include a `triggerType` field (`entry` or `exit`) to distinguish between entry and exit events - Independent cooldown tracking for entry and exit actions Improvements - Simulate Region Entry and Exit now bypass cooldown for easier testing - Webhook debugging timestamps now display in your local timezone - Various bug fixes and UI improvements

- Set up more than one webhook per location, and enable or disable to your liking - Granular notification settings per location - Enhanced "Debug Tools" view with details about the last request and response (status, header, body) per location and webhook - Added in-app release notes that display automatically after app updates - View full release notes history from the Status screen - Various bug fixes and performance improvements
