Outdoor Camera Recording Outside of Set Activity Zones
Has anyone had issues with their outdoor camera recording outside of set activity zones? I'm having trouble getting the camera to consistently record package drop offs/mail delivery, even though I have those areas marked to record in my activity zone. Delivery/mail notifications is a majority of the reason I got the camera in the first place, so trying to figure this out.
To help increase the sensitivity of the monitoring inside the market activity zones (where packages are dropped/the mailbox), I tried changing the settings from "people only" to "all motion", but when I do this, it starts recording literally every movement outside of the set activity zones. I like that it definitely increases the sensitivity when set to "all motion", but I don't like that it makes it record outside of the set activity zones. Is this supposed to happen with the "all motion" setting? I would think it should record "all motion" inside your activity zone parameters, but no idea why it would start recording outside of my marked zones?
Has anyone else experienced this issue and found a good fix? Thanks so much!

Hi @llamartina518 ,
It might help to perform a reset, just to clear out the software and start fresh. You can do that by pressing the button in the back of the Outdoor Camera for 30 seconds. When you release, it should reboot, and you can install it again from the app like a new camera.
But it could also be a problem with the firmware itself. What version of the firmware do you have? You can check in the Camera Settings page. Version 1.9, with stability and performance improvements, is rolling out now.
