topic Re: Is Smart Notifications working for anyone in Arlo Smart

Smart notification to notify person only but getting every motion detection notification.

Smart Notifications have never worked for me. I have my activity zone set up, and smart notifications set up to notify me only if a PERSON enters my zone. Everything else is disabled. However, I am notified with every motion detected. Never bothered me before, because I live in a cul-de-sac with not much activity. But lots of infrastructure work being done, with traffic re-directed this way, and I am getting notified every minute of vehicles. Driving me to the brink of insanity. I have re-scheduled my system to be enabled during the late night hours which defeats the purpose of having it.
What am I doing wrong? Help!

Hey mshumph,

Have you tried toggling the smart notifications off and on through the Arlo mobile app and/or the web client on your computer to see if that helps?

Found the manual and solved the problem. Sensitivity level was turned up to 86. Ew!
Thanks.
