Timed deactivation

Jasoncie — Thu, 06 Jul 2023 21:12:53 GMT

Not sure if this is the place to post this or not, but I would like to see an option in the app to deactivate my cameras for a set amount of time. Such as when I'm outside with the kids or cooking out or mowing, it would be nice if we could turn the camera off for an hour or 2 hours so it's not blowing up my phone and wasting camera battery. Just a thought thanks!

Jasoncie,

While you can adjust the active mode or use the mute notifications feature (linked in the article below), many users have requested an option to suppress not only notifications but recordings for a fixed period of time. I will pass your feedback along to the development team for consideration.
