Geofence does not interact properly with Modes

I have set up Geofence and notifications, which would be a great reminder to arm my devices when I leave home, if I only used them all disarmed or all armed [my system has 6 cameras and a doorbell]. It works perfectly if all devices are disarmed and I leave. But I use the Modes feature as well - Disarmed, Home and Away. 'Disarmed' I have set, obviously, as everything completely off. 'Home' I have set with just the doorbell camera on. 'Away' is, again obviously, everything completely on. So Geofence and Geofence notifications are absolutely completely useless as there is no way to tell Geofence that it needs to consider Home mode as DISARMED, and remind me to arm my system. Because of the one device that remains armed when I'm home, when I leave home / the Geofence area, the ridiculous system thinks that the system IS ALREADY ARMED and fails to remind me to actually arm the other 6 devices, ie, the cameras around the rest of my property. What exactly is the point of 'Home' mode then, if Geofence only works with all armed or all disarmed, and doesn't interact with Home and Away modes? This drives me insane and needs to be fixed!!!
