Geofencing is not working for me since 2 years and scheduling this feature as wanted in this thread will not be implemented since 2 years? What a useless camera system!! I bought a lot of eufy stuff and now it’s time to go for a competitor and throw away all this buggy eufy equipment…

HomeKit cannot do it because the eufy app cannot switch geofencing home/away. My whole system is rubbish because of this missing features, that are absolutely basics in the year 2023!

Homekit alone actually can’t do that. I use a combination of HomeKit, Homebridge and ioBroker with the Eufy security adapter. This works wonderfully, although it is of course not the most elegant solution. However, the EuSec adapter in ioBroker offers significantly more possibilities.

I know this aventurely setups but it’s not supposed to be so. Even with my eufy security app geofencing is not working and this is a known issue since years.

That is EXACTLY what is needed! - Plus getting Geofence to actually work reliably (almost every time it triggers when leave the zone but does not trigger on return! - meaning lots of alarms etc when we arrive home!!

I’ve been waiting for Geofencing with Schedule for over a year now, is there a better way to make our voices heard by the Eufy devs?

It’s been about 3 years of asking for this feature. Any updates?

I think they’re employed by Pfizer. Don’t want to answer the hard questions.

Is this seriously not implemented yet!? How difficult can it be!
Your AI chatbot isn’t winning any awards as it seems to think you can with steps that get you nowhere. Very disappointing Eufy.

More than 3 years people are waiting for a solution by eufy for an essential functionality that all competition has. Why is eufy not doing the least effort to add this functionality? Are they technically uncapable? Is there software team so weak that they cannot acchieve to program this? They should be ashamed. In 2020 eufy still did the effort to promise, not they do not even react.

I’ve had the system for less than one day and already now I find out that a crucial feature is missing, really???

I too am extremely disappointed to find that Eufy doesn’t support this or explain why they don’t. It would take min to enable the ability for schedule to be selected. Really a shame they havn’t listened to their customers in this one.

31 March 2024, and still waiting for this easy fix which was supposed to be implemented Q4 2020. Pretty worrying that this cant be implemented and peoples concerns ignored. Wish i purchased an Arlo instead Lol
I made a formal enquiry about it and got this response:
“Thank you for contacting Eufy.
Sorry to tell you that currently, it doesn’t support the schedule the Geofencing.
Hope you can kindly understand.
Have a good day”
Because I didn’t accept this response it was escalated to management.
I then got this reply:
“Thank you for the reply.
This is Shane from Eufy.
I am the supervisor here.
I understand your feeling.
We received some suggestions for adding the Geofencing to the schedule.
I have reported your suggestion to our engineer again and they will consider it.
But currently, we can not promise you anything.
Hope you can kindly understand.
Have a good day”
I somehow think that this will go absolutely nowhere and that there is no intention to address the issue.
Don’t hold your breath guys.
2024 - still a feature needed!!!
Finally I realized the mode Change by time with Iobroker… It really cant be a Problem to solve it nativley by Eufy
This feature is an absolute must! Where is it? The absence of this feature has been going on for years… It would make this system much, much more user friendly. I don’t use Geofencing now because Scheduling is not a choice. To add it in they could simply tie Geofencing to the I’m Staying/I’m Leaving camera groupings and it would work…because Scheduling already is a control choice when adding each camera to these two groups. So Scheduling would then become a second instruction set to the I’M Staying group which is triggered by the geofencing circle perimeter.
Seems strange to me that this is not an option and has been asked for since 2020. Why not just have the schedule mode one of the modes selectable when you setup geofencing? Simply let me select Schedule mode in place of At Home or Home mode when I return home. So when I’m away I want the Away mode settings in place and when I’m home I want the Schedule mode settings in place. Seems to me it should be simple to implement.
