Description

**Home Assistant Core Version**

**Describe the bug**

I have an automation setup that arms Blink when the last person leaves home, and disarms it when the first person arrives home.

I have found that around 40% of the time the disarm trigger fails because entering the home geofence is not picked up.

I've just been out and the iPhone sensor picked up that I was away. It still hasn't detected I'm at home now, though.

This has occurred in the last few versions - as far back as I can remember.

Full location permissions have been granted in iOS.
