Geofencing is a location-based service that triggers a pre-defined action when you enter or exit a specific place. Your exact location is needed to improve Geofencing performance. If the location cannot be determined or is not accurate, you can turn on precise location to ensure accuracy. The Kasa app is used in the example below.

For iOS (iOS 14 and iPadOS 14 or later)

Turn on Precise Location and you can apply your exact location to the Geofencing feature.

1. Go to “Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services”.

 

2. Select Kasa, then turn Precise Location on.

 

If Location Services is grayed out and cannot be turned on, please verify whether have disallowed changes to location services.

1. Go to “Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > Location Services”. Please select Allow Changes. Then tap back to save your settings.

    

2. Tap Location Services again. Select Kasa, and allow Always location permission, then turn Precise Location on to get accurate location information.

 

For Android (Android 12 or later):

Enable Use Precise Location and you can apply your exact location to the Geofencing feature.

1. Go to “Settings > Apps” and select Kasa.

 

2. Go to “Permissions > Location”, then choose Allow all the time and turn Use precise location on.
