Setting Filters

[gsinkinson]

I am confused about the check marks on the Filter screen.

Under the Arlo Smart Notifications section,
does a check mark indicate that you will receive a notification for that item?
Or does that mean you will NOT receive a notification?

For example, if there is a check mark after People but not after Animals, does that mean you will get a notification if a person is detected but not if it's an animal?
Or are you filtering OUT a notification?

Is it the same for Motion?

In all cases, removing the check mark filters out the notification.  Motion is a catch-all for unclassified events.
