Sensitivity too high Arlo Pro 4 Version 3.6.10_2

[jwm53]

  Model Arlo Pro 4.  Version 3.6.10_2.   I had to replace an Arlo camera that's on my driveway.  The new camera issues alerts way too frequently--like when leaves on a tree 150 feet away rustle.  I'm looking to get notified by big objects like people and cars.  Not the wind moving tree leaves.  I have the sensitivity down to 1%.  Any more suggestions?

Wind in the branches is difficult.  If you have a subscription, you can just turn off "all other motion" in the smart notifications.  Activity zones can also help.  Neither improve battery life, but they will reduce notifications and recordings.

1% is likely too low to pick up people in the area of interest.  I suggest using the motion detection test to determine the threshold you need.  Note the sensitivity used by the test is just for the test.  If you want to change the actual threshold, you need to do that in the mode.
