How do I set up SmartThings Geofencing to make the door open or close automatically when I arrive or leave?

Before setting up Geofencing, you need to connect your iSmartgate to SmartThings. Follow our guide here: How to connect iSmartgate to SmartThings

Once your iSmartgate is connected to SmartThings, follow these steps to set up Geofencing:

1) Set up your home location: In the SmartThings app, go to Settings → Location Settings. Make sure your address is correct, and define a Geofence radius (150–300 m recommended).

2) Enable location access: Make sure your phone’s location services are on and SmartThings has “Always” access to your location.

3) Create the Geofencing automation:

Go to Devices → Select the iSmartgate door → Routines → Add Routine

Configure the Routine (IF):

Select Add Condition → Member Location

Choose Every time anyone arrives (to OPEN the door), or Every time anyone leaves (to CLOSE the door) → Location: My home

Set the action (THEN): select your iSmartgate device, then choose OPEN or CLOSE.

Once you have selected the preferred option (OPEN or CLOSE), your routine should look similar to the example below:

Select Save to confirm the settings. Geofencing should now be active.
