Geofencing - if I'm not back within certain time, send email

I’m sure this must be possible, but I can’t figure out how.

Using a geofence feature (e.g. Watch entrances to/exits from a geofence area module):
If I leave my office and don’t return within 2 hours → Send email to my colleague to say I’m out of office.

How would you achieve this?

If you have an Android device, the Android app has this Trigger module

That’s right, that’s the module I mentioned.

So I’m trying to figure out how to use that module in a workflow to send an email if my Android device does not return to the geofence area within a certain period.

Wow, thank you! I was imagining something far simpler but if this is the workaround, so be it.

Second scenario


I also just realised you could “log” all your entry/exits in a single spreadsheet and then compare the logs in the second scenario. But I like this solution better since you don’t have to deal with an external spreadsheet service.
