Hi all,
I have a script that every time I enter or exit from a certain area, it should send a text message. Unfortunately this doesn't work and I can't understand why. Can someone help me?

Re: Location trigger
Ciao Francesco, I haven't seen anything strange (besides that radius setting is "128.0", instead of just "128"), OTH I think the Tip/Note given at the Trigger:Location reference points to another flaw: An (h)azienda's environment sounds like being located in a rural part of your/that country. So to trigger the exact location in real-time might become a tricky beast - from a technical point of view. But that's just plain guessing

Hi Bobo,
I'll try to change the coordinates, but I don't think that's the problem is it.
Anyway, thanks for your help.

Re: Location trigger
Hello
It's worth noting that -
"Note: The location is usually checked every 4 minutes when the device is not actively used and the classic method is used. This can result in the GPS icon on the statusbar being visible every 4 minutes. Entering/exiting a location can be missed when you are moving fast through a location with a small radius and the 4 minute check misses the location. Locations can be reported more often when the device is active or another application also uses the location features (for example when using Google Maps)."
Try using the "Modern (Google Play Services)" method instead of "Classic". I found this gave a faster, more consistent response.
Also, check that your Location is provided by GPS, WiFi and Bluetooth in your phones settings.
Hope this is of some help to you.

Crude but it works.
Re: Location trigger
Great, I changed the setting as you suggested. I'll try and check it tomorrow.
Thank you
Thank you
