Up to 100 GeoFences can be stored. Due to device limitations, Android devices can actively monitor up to 100 GeoFences at once, while iOS devices can monitor 20. If the new GeoFence is specified to be active, an error will be given if the device has already reached its monitoring capacity.
If active, GeoFence must have at least one of the following transitions specified in options: notifOnEntry, notifOnExit, or notifOnDwell. (If using iOS devices, notifOnDwell is not supported.) These specify when a notification will trigger for a GeoFence. At least one of the transitions must be used, or else an error will be given. If the GeoFence is specified as not active, no transition should be given.
