How can I turn down the motion sensors?  Right now my phone beeps about 500 times a day with alerts and it records.  I get cars on the off streets or when the wind blows!  Help!!  It is draining my batteries.

Read the FAQs here on changing sensitivity as well as creating custom modes so you have full control.

Also look for opportunites to alter what the camera "sees".  I have a few cameras near streets and I have rotated them such that the streets are just out of the field of view of the camera to minimize false alarms from traffic.  I also have had cameras that pick up a lot of tree limb activity.  In some cases, I adjust the camera position and in some cases, I trim the tree limb.  Bright sun and fast moving clouds are another problem entirely!
