The Smart Alarm Indoor Camera has two motion detection options: All Motion and People Only.

When set to All Motion, the camera will record any motion it senses - which may cause excess motion events. However, if the camera is set to People Only it will only respond to people-shaped objects (which is especially helpful if you have pets at home!).

To minimise the amount of motion your Smart Alarm Indoor Camera detects, you can change its motion setting to People Only by following these steps:

SimpliSafe® Mobile App
