I have a camera in my living room. It was dark and I noticed the infrared lights when on for a moment, off and then on again for some seconds. No one in my house was using it and it was disarmed.
Is there someone spying on me?? O_o

Prob not... maybe a sw update or a reset if power flickered.... have seen it a few times over the years.

( if it had stayed on then maybe 🙂  )

But always a smart move to change PW to a strong one if in doubt.

Similar problem. I have my cameras turned completely off and I will hear them triggering the night vision and can see the red lights turn on.  Camera is off, night vision is also off. This started happening right after the last app update. Any help or direction would be great.
