Can the zipabox have support for GPS tracking with the iphone app. i can tell the box im coming home then it can monitor my position when im say 25 minutes from the house the heating will start up. when im 5 minutes from the house the coffee machine can start brewing and when i enter my street the outside lights can fade on, welcoming my arrival.


regards

Currently not now but its comming! Meanwhile I use the following setup to accomplish the same thing. Not the most lean solution but working.

iPhone app Geolocation send mail upon arrival/leaving GPS zone

This mail I send to mailgun.com that upon incoming mail can trigger a http request.

This request I use to trigger a http sensor in my Zipabox.

Didn't try it myself, but i saw this iPhone app, what can sent a http request based on your GPS location. So you don't have to go through mailgun i guess.
