Almost every day, the applet is falsely triggered and it appears only in IFTTT,

but do not exist in the Arlo app or Arlo event history.

When I check the Arlo interface, there is no corresponding motion recording, notification, or event.

 

These triggers therefore appear to be false or phantom events generated somewhere between Arlo and IFTTT, rather than real detections from the camera.

 

Because these false triggers happen frequently, the entire automation chain becomes unreliable. Downstream actions are executed based on events that never actually occurred, which defeats the purpose of using a motion-based trigger.

 

- The applet is tied to a specific camera.

- The false triggers appear in IFTTT activity logs only.

- There is no matching motion event in the Arlo app or web interface.

- This happens repeatedly (almost daily), not as a one-time issue.

Can you please provide the following information:

 

The recipe he created for the IFTTT applet? And the false motion triggers, notifications and time stamps?
