We have been hard at work re-working the mobile presence backend for iOS users. Behind the scenes, we have made a lot of improvements to the mobile presence feature and are ready to ask some of you to test! We are opening up the beta for 150 people to start and will stop accepting applications once the 150 user limit has been reached.
What will I have to do?
Sign up and then keep using mobile presence.
One of the lucky ones? Haha no, it’s not broken per say, but with the latest version of iOS, our old solution was giving us some problems… So we changed the way we do it and the provider we use.
Have her sign up for Cetnercode. She won’t need to do anything but be on the latest App Store version. We will enable the new features with a feature flag.
A request with presence: is there a way to strip out all the program except that function?
My wife does not want ST on her phone, but would like to utilize her phone as a presence/geofence device. Specifically she does not want the various alerts…, or the configuration stuff… or the smartapps… lol
On top of the ST-app presence-related flakiness lately, this is the main reason I’ve switched over to Life360 for presence sensing… My girlfriend has ZERO interest in dealing with any ST stuff at all, so Life360 provides me with an easy “fire-&-forget” presence solution for her phone.
Life360 has been working well for us (we’re both on iOS)
