Version 2.0.4:
- EgiGeoZone is now plugin capable. Developers can now create plugins for EgiGeoZone. Once an event occurs, certain parameters of the event are forwarded to the plugins.

- Vibration CheckBox introduced in sound for "More Actions".

16.08.2015 - Version 2.0.3

12.07.2015 - Version 2.0.1

- Bugfixing in exporting and importing configuration

11.07.2015 - Version 2.0.0

- Data management (configurations) has been converted to database. When you install (migrate) this version, the configurations are transferred to the database.
Similarly, the old actions are taken in profiles and assigned to zones automatically. The profiles are automatically assigned names. These names can be adjusted afterwards.
- So there is no conflict with old export files, a database export will be created in the file named egigeozone_db_export.xml.
- Profiles (configurations) have been introduced. This means that for server settings, SMS settings, e-mail settings, "more actions" and conditions
custom profiles have to be created. These can then be assigned to the different zones.
- The switch to activate / deactivate a configuration was removed by popular demand.
- SMS and emails can now be send separately when entering and / or leaving a zone. To display the zone name, the entering and the leaving of the zone and other parameters, you have to use the variable parameters (see manual).
    Example of SMS:
    Egmont has just ${transition} ${zone}.
    results
    Egmont has just entered work.
- Design changed.
- Test results are now displayed in a dialog window.
- Procedure so Geofences survive a reboot of the device, has been optimized.
- Updated icons / symbols.
- Log file can now be deleted within app.
- Error notification made legible.
- Improved error message for server connections.

- Bugfixing in import of the GCM settings.

04.01.2015 - Version 1.4.5

- You can now log the GCM notifications to the file gcmnotifications.txt in the egigeozone directory. Also you can show the GCM log from the app. You can find this all under the Administrations menu.

  You have to download the new 98_gcmsend.pm modul from http://svn.code.sf.net/p/fhem/code/trunk/fhem/contrib/98_gcmsend.pm

27.10.2014 - Version 1.4.1

Changes:

- bug fix: Problem when searching on map.
- bug fix: Problem setting WIFI off.

18.09.2014 - Version 1.4.0

New:
- Receiving notifications over GCM, also called push messages. These were implemented as gcmsend interface known from the FHEM server , which was originally developed for the andFHEM App. After consultation with the developers of gcmsend, EgiGeoZone can also use this module. So you can get push notification in nearly live time for example from your server.
- Means:
* Users of FHEM server can configure the module gcmsend and can send push messages to the smartphone/tablet. Gcmsend knows the message types and message and notify. Both message types are displayed in EgiGeoZone as a notification with the appropriate content.
* Other servers have to implement the gcmsend interface.
- It is also conceivable a push message to execute commands on the phone.
- Possible scenarios in which FHEM sends gcmsend a push message to the mobile device:
* Alarm is triggered in FHEM.
* Temperature drops below a specified value.
* Water alarm
* Someone rings the door
* Etc.

- Send log file to the developer if needed.

08.09.2014 - Version 1.3.5

New:
- In the map you can now search for addresses. In case of multiple matches, the first three hits are marked on the map. Similarly, you can now switch the map to satellite view and back to normal view.
- You can now define in the App conditions when entering / exiting. These conditions are strictly defined in the app and can be configured. To execute the selected actions, these requirements must be met. Regardless of notifications are still displayed if they are enabled. Such is the first "condition" means that the actions should only be performed when a given Bluetooth device with the smartphone / tablet is connected. Therefore one must choose under conditions a Bluetooth device. To view the list of BT devices, BT must be enabled. If this is not the case, the activate app BT briefly and then turn it off again. For this condition is met later at execution time, the appropriate unit must be connected via BT.
- Other requirements, if necessary follow.

09.08.2014 - Version 1.3.4

Changes:

- When you click Apply, the settings under Server, SMS, Email and actions are now saved immediately and it does not have to be clicked on Change.
- Fix initializing the Bluetooth settings.

05.07.2014 - Version 1.3.3

New:
   Bluetooth ein- oder ausschalten
Changes:
- Since I've noticed that some units were excluded from the new updates from Google Play, I will make the app compatible with these devices.
Specifically devices were excluded, which have no integrated telephone module (tablets) or no Wifi.
Telephone module (sending SMS) was introduced with 1.2.1. Meant no update for devices that have version 1.1.4 installed.
Wifi / WLAN with version 1.3.0 (WLan switch on or off respectively. Meant no update for devices that have version 1.2.4 installed.
These devices will get the update from 1.3.3 again from the Google Play Store an update. Even new devices without these modules can install the new app.
For the curious: power status today 549 more devices!
- Side Menu: optimized behavior

No translation from here :-)
