#<big>The name of the phone will appear in the [[Devices]] list on the hub you connected to with the Hubitat Elevation mobile app. It will also now appear in the app as an existing mobile device each time you login to the mobile app and connect it to the same hub.</big>
 
#<big>Arrival or departure of the mobile phone creates an event. To use these events for presence detection, add the phone name from the Devices list to [[Basic Rules]] or a [[Rule-4.0|Rule Machine]] rule to trigger an action.</big>
