Bulk Delete Videos

Add the ability to select multiply videos and delete the selected videos. I had a outdoor camera start recording at 3:00am every three minutes. This created 60 videos to delete. Deleting them one at a time takes forever.

Hello everyone in the SimpliSafe community. I just did a 12-15 minute system update, and suprise, surprise no update for bulk video delete. Come on software engineers, your customers pay monthly subscriptions for monitoring service, well how about some real customer support by giving us what many are asking for, BULK VIDEO DELETE function Ring doorbell does it, Blink cameras does it why not SimpliSafe?

Have a question for community, but more for for Simplisafe support.

Just had a situation. A delivery from amazon was brought to my back porch as requested.

The system was armed in Home mode.

I have an outdoor camera watching back door.

The camera recorded the delivery person moving in my backyard in the dark about 7:00am, but did not set off an alarm.

Is this how it should work or (more to my thinking something did not work)?

Hi @jrbarcs​, 

When the Outdoor Camera detects motion it will not sound an alarm, but it will send you a notification via the app.

Is that how it works in both home and away modes when alarm is set to on?

Yes, when your system is armed in Home or Away mode and the Outdoor Camera detects motion, or an alarm is triggered, it will begin recording and send a notification through the SimpliSafe app.

Is there a feature to select all videos and delete ?

@vj_reshma  at this time, there is none but I am sure SS will pass it on to their development team to let them know.  (Standard reply in the past).

SimpliSafe needs to add a Bulk Delete for videos from the doorbell and cameras.  And now even the individual delete isn't working right on my SimpliSafe App.  Before if I went into my Timeline, I could click on a video and delete it manually.  But now, the app lets me go through all the steps but the video doesn't delete. It's thoroughly frustrating that something which should be so simple, is a nightmare and your programmers aren't even trying to give users the ability to bulk delete.  Please get this weak link in your system fixed.

I agree bulk deletion is a must.

Please create a bulk ‘delete video’ function. Many of the users here have asked for it. We have other things to do than watch doorbell videos of leaves blowing all day and individually delete each video.
