The "Coming home" scenario sends a message to your smartphone as soon as you enter a geofence you have saved. If you tap on the message and unlock your smartphone, your gate will open automatically.
This is simplified in the following graphic: you can save a geofence in the maveo app, which is shown as a blue circle above a map. As soon as you enter this geofence and move towards the center, you will receive a notification. If you unlock it, your door will open so that you no longer have to wait to drive into the garage when you arrive home.
To be able to set up the "Coming home" scenario, you must allow the maveo app to receive notifications and also record the location of the smartphone in the background.
When setting up, we recommend that you enter the address of your garage in the maveo app so that the center of the geofence is exactly over your garage. This address is only saved locally on your smartphone and is not sent to other servers or devices.
As soon as you save your geofence for the first time, the color of the circle on the map changes from blue to yellow. Yellow circles are your saved geofences in the maveo app.
You can reset the geofence at any time. Another blue circle shows you a new suggestion for a geofence. As soon as you save this, your old geofence will be deleted.
You can use the slider below the map to determine the size of the circle.
A blue circle with a blue pin - above the map in the maveo app - stands for the editable "suggestion" for a geofence of the Coming home scenario. You can move the map below the circle to change the location of the geofence. By "zooming" or moving the slider, you can enlarge the circle and define exactly where you want to receive a notification. (The actual accuracy may vary, e.g. due to loading times, internet reception at the location/scope of the geofence or the GPS performance of your smartphone)
A yellow circle with a yellow pin and "Current" lettering - above the map in the maveo app - shows you the geofence that the maveo app has currently saved on your smartphone. This is of course static and moves with the map.
The geofence and your current smartphone location (background location of the smartphone) are only ever processed locally on your smartphone and are not shared, collected or sent.
This pin shows you the current smartphone location on the map. This is for orientation purposes only and has no other functions. The location of your garage or the selected location of your geofence may be in a different place.
Support & Troubleshooting
In rare cases, the maveo app may not be able to assign an address to your smartphone location. Therefore, move the map slightly back and forth until an address is found.
