Privacy masking

killson210197 — Mon, 17 Jun 2024 15:37:32 GMT

So I have an alarm system with verisure with 2 outdoor cameras and 1 doorbell. I'm wanting to black out parts of my drive and its not possible with how the camera is positioned. You can only zoom in and out in a square. The app really could do with being flexible. Like drawing the area not a zoom. My drive is on an angle and if I zoom in to remove next doors drive I lose 90% of my cameras.

Any suggestions cheers.

If you have a subscription you can set up activity zones where it will only pick up movement and record in the area that you set up the activity zone in:

There is also Arlo privacy zones and that information is here:
