Good idea, I created v2.45 with that feature.
it is not yet in MCV app store but you can get it directly from GitHub - amg0/IPhoneLocator: IPhone Locator plugin for Micasaverde VERA and openLuup

Thanks a lot Amg0!
Works good!

Just updated the plugin. I’ll see how VeraMate displays the battery.

Edit: I guess this version is 2.45. I’ll have to wait a little longer.

That’s easy to do… with a scene triggered by the battery level.

this should install it : open this url in your browser and ignore error message, let time to download & reload luup

2-Distance goes below
3-Distance goes above

Otherwise if you use ALTUI, you can trigger through a variable watch on the battery level. On UI7, you can also set the variable watch in the startup LUA but it takes a bit more coding.

the 0% is an indication that icloud lost track of your phone. This has nothing to do with the plugin but rather the connection between your phone and either GPS satellites or internet as it needs both to update icloud. I have observed this too and I found that checking the extra polling helps decrease the frequency. It does not appear that icloud polls the phone that often either so the API sometimes gives an empty response and needs a second poll after it found the phone.
