Hi. My cameras have stopped recording. It must be to do with my subscription. I thought that i could still have recordings with a free subscription. I can only watch live. Is this right? Thanks for any help

However, if I pick an old mode I created months ago, all seams to work OK except sending mails to an old email address

Hi @Lisab75
What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far? I do not want to suggest anything you may have previously performed.

My barely detect motion, and they've progressively gotten worse over the last few months.

I Called 1800-549-680 and I followed the below steps:
- Go to Settings -> My Devices and Remove the base station (automatically all cameras were removed)
- Unplug all cables from base station
- After one minute, plug back in all cables
- Press the Reset button for 30 seconds
- Wait until all lights are green
- Bring back in all cameras one-by-one (press 2 secs base station sync button than go and press 2 secs camera sync button)
- Re-create all custom modes one-by-one
- When edit each rule, only one check box can be selected in How would you like to be notified? either Push Notification OR Send email alert
After all these steps the whole system including 4 cameras were back to normal 🙂

I tried this and it didn't do anything. Fedex just dropped off a package and they were 3 feet away before it sensed anyone.
