Edit a Geo-Device

A Geo-Device is a geographically aware mobile device that can be configured to automate home settings and initiate additional notifications based on the location of the Geo-Device relative to your home, office, or other locations.

Device names are shared across push and geo-devices, and can be updated simultaneously.

Note: On mobile, this feature requires iOS version 5.12.1+ or Android version 5.9.2+.
