Geofence functionality

Can VRM be updated to allow multiple geofences? The alarm should be set to trigger EITHER upon entry OR exit.

I have had a look at the Geofence setup having one set myself.

From testing, you can only have one geofence, either circular, rectangular or irregular in shape and once you choose one shape, the options for selecting a shape disappear so you can not choose a second. However, a workaround is to choose the irregular shape and have very narrow corridors between larger areas and you can use zoom to try and make the corridors very thin. See the screen shots below.geo1.jpg

The Geofence alarm send you a notification when you leave the monitored area AND when you re-enter the area.
