not able to arm/disarm individual cameras

gflynt — Wed, 25 Sep 2024 15:28:20 GMT

The new app is not very user friendly but the Main problem I have is not being able to arm/disarm individual cameras! I have multiple cameras with some being close to high traffic areas that I only monitor at night. Others I monitor all the time. Not being able to turn them on and off separately doesn't work for me. Need to change that.

While you cannot arm/disarm individual cameras, you can just turn them off in the device settings of the camera.

That has basically the same effect as disarm. The main difference is that you need to turn them back on before you can livestream them.

I have 7 cameras at different locations. I used to could have some armed and some not. It appears that now they are either all armed or all not. Doesn't work for me and seems a bad idea. Maybe I'm not finding the setting.

Don't you see an on/off control in the camera settings????
