windows phone and Android apps?

[scottbakertemp 0]

Guys,

Does the windows phone insteon app allow you to use the phone's presence or location as an input (or trigger or whatever insteon calls it)?

 

Does the Android insteon app allow you to use the phone's presence or location as an input (or trigger or whatever insteon calls it)?

I have a very limited INSTEON setup but I don't see how to add this functionality inside the WP app.  In SmartThings your phone is a "device" in the overall system.  That allows you to use location sensing with it.  In the WP INSTEON app i do not see how to add a phone or a way to enable a scene to trigger via phone.

I have not worked with it, but my understanding is you need a app like Mobilinc to get GeoFencing with Insteon.
