Motion sensitivity slider settings graphic is confusing. Do I slide left or right to see better?

I've searched the related posts and have found a solved answer.

However, I'm confused that although there are some users asking the question, why the graphics on the sensitivity setting page haven't been changed or a note explaining how they work.

The graphic is so ambiguous that I didn't know what was moving the slider would work.

My toddler got out of bed last night and terrorised the room without a notification. Do I slide it to the left or the right for the zone to see him better? Do I wait another night to see the mess and know I went the wrong way?

It seems like this could be addressed easily enough in an app update.

On Baby and others , to the RIGHT is more sensitive.... ( bigger number or higher % )

( mind that you need to adjust this in the MODE that arms the camera )

I agree. The icons are counter intuitive:
- A person walking, when you want more motion to be detected.
- A person running, when you want little motion to be detected.
Drives me nuts.
