HomeKit Turn Off Automation with Geofencing

The turn off automation is a great feature. However, it doesn’t appear to be working for geofencing triggered automations. Not sure if this is a bug because it did work when I used turn off on a motion sensor triggered automation.

For the automation that didn’t work, I set my entrance lights to turn on whenever someone arrives home, and the lights are supposed to turn off after 1 minute, but they never turn off.

Does anyone else have this issue?

Homekit automation work when tested but then wont work I have an Eve motion sensor setup to then turn on a Lightwave Light switch. This automation worked fine until a week ago then stopped working. I have removed both accessories, deleted then re-added them, then rebuilt the automations but they still wont work. Doing a test works perfectly turns the lights on, but as soon i try to use it by walking by the sensor nothing happens. The LED on the sensor comes on and the icon in homekit lights to say motion detected but it doesn't trigger the light. Similarly I can manually turn the light on and off. Im baffled but maybe doing something simple wrong. Any idea?

Personal Automation on waking up I am slowly getting my head around automations, but cannot figure this one out, or even if it is possible. This is what I want it to do. When I turn off my morning alarm. Turn on bathroom light Turn on downstairs light in kitchen. I have both of the above set up as a scene in Homekit. I have set up this to work, but I have identified some extra things that I would like to happen. This only needs to happen if I am 'at home' The lights only need to come on if it is before sunrise. This is what I have set up for the first part, but its the extra bits I cannot figure. Personal Automation Alarm When - is stopped - alarms - any Add action Search - Home Control Our Home Set scenes and accessories Run 'good morning scene' All help is appreciated. Trevor
