Your Energenie MiHome product can be triggered to perform an action using the location of your mobile phone by using a feature called Geofencing. This feature allows you to set distances from your home (centre point) at which you wish your device to perform an action. E.g. switch off your MiHome product when you leave or return home.
The Geofencing feature works in conjunction with the Location Service of your mobile device and will require that the service is active on your phone or tablet.
