Trigger: Cell Tower Change

This trigger will fire when you enter or exit an area based on the cell towers that can be detected by your device.

This works like a low accuracy location trigger, so it's useful to determine if you are in or out of a certain town/city. Cell tower coverage typically extends over many Kilometers so this trigger is not suitable for high precision location tracking.

Cell Tower Group

You can scan for cell towers that are visible in your current location to create a cell tower group. This cell tower group is later used to compare against the currently visible cell towers to determine if you are within range or outside range of the cell tower group. For more information see Cell_Towers

Configuration Options

  • Enter Cell Area

The trigger will fire when one or more cell towers within the selected group is detected, indicating that you are within the coverage area of the cell tower group.

  • Leave Cell Area

The trigger will fire when no cell towers with the selected group are detected, indicating that you are outside the coverage area of the cell tower group.
