Geofence automatically set Home/Away mode
Currently the Geofence feature only snooze and alerts me to set a mode. It doesn't set the mode for me automatically. I would like it to automatically detects that I'm leaving my house and sets the Away mode and automatically sets the Home mode when I arrive home.

Exactly. This automation should have been introduced long time ago. I have the Honeywell smart thermostat the change operation mode according to the Geofence location. Ring also should do the same for the Home/Away automatic switching based on the Geofence input

HiIs there a way to automate arm/disarm Ring alarm based on geofencing like Abode system? Automation would be like: 1. when first phone enters geofence disarm ring system.2. when last phone leaves geofence arm the ring system.Can we use Alexa or another service to have this automation?

I would also like this feature, rather than the Geofence sending us reminders to turn cameras on and off it would be nice if we have the option to turn cameras on and off automatically with the Geofence. I had this option on an older camera system and it was very useful.

FTThis would be a very useful feature. It is hard to remember to Arm Ring alarm when you leave home. Ooma security has this feature. When both (spouse and I) are outside the perimeter the security system would arm and when we enter the perimeter it would disarm automatically.

SCYes this worked on my Smartthings system which I switched to Ring From due to issues with sensors and cameras. It also worked in the basis of multiple people living in the same houseEg if one person left the geo it wouldn’t auto arm, until the second (or last person) left the geo. Pretty standard stuff if you are going to implement a geofence in the first place! So I thought.

This would be a good fix for the goefence only snoozing the cameras for 3 hours. It would be much simpler to select away, then home again to snooze the selected cameras for another 3 hours.
