GeoFencing is on most rival alarm systems even cheap ones so why has it not been implemented for the Ring Alarm system yet? Its relatively simple to implement but Ring don't seem to want to do it and just say 'We don't have an ETA' or 'We will pass the information on'

    We appreciate this feedback, neighbors! While our teams work to add and improve on our features and devices we would like to share out recently announced Geofence feature with you. This feature offers notification auto-snoozing for your Doorbells and Cameras. Plus it has Alarm mode reminders too! It is currently only available for US based neighbors. Check out Riley’s Community article [here](https://community.ring.com/t/ring-app-update-geofence-with-auto-snooze-and-arm-disarm-reminders/38495), for more information on this new Geofence feature, and feel free to let us know what you think! :)

      While the reminders are a step forward, that is a tiny step. Enable full automation of mode switching. When no account holders are home, switch to arm. When an account holder is home, switch to home. Just complete the gap from reminders to automation.

      More notifications and no new automations or integrations. Great! That only took…. 2+++ years…

    How can I disable notifications when I am home? I have geofencing setup but that only snoozes notifications, there are no set times that I want this to happen so scheduling notifications is not an option. Modes doesn’t do it either as I still want motion to be detected and recorded but not to notify me when I am at home. Not that modes can be changed automatically either!

          So I noticed that the Geofence reminder 'Feature' was available in the UK. I set it up as per the instructions and tested it by leaving the alarm disarmed while I popped out to get food. It did NOTHING! No reminders when I left home or when I came home! So this pointless feature doesn't even work and possibly even worse it gives people a false sense of security. I and all your other thousands of customers are paying money each month and we should get better than this! If you aren't going to provide a proper geofencing feature that automatically arms and disarms then I am going to make a point of sharing my disappointment over social media, then you might take notice

        Hi team Having waited over two years for Geofencing, what a disappointment !.. Was hoping you would give us the option of arm and disarm of the alarm given proximity .. What did you give us a reminder to arm wow, how useless, do you have any plans to provide an option to arm (with option to disarm) ?
