Motion detection and false alarms

[dannydan]

Hi,

I'm planning on purchasing the Arlo Pro for placement around my house, including my front door.

Only concern is, we live in a shared driveway with some traffic from our neighbours either driving or walking in front of our house.

Though these would be considered as "motion" events, I don't want to be alerted about them. I know setting up motion activity zones is currently not possible, and was wondering if the system would still be suitable for my needs. Also concerned about the battery life with too many motion events.

Sorry if I'm answering my own question here, just wanting to get some other opinions.

I guess you could either position the cameras so they don't capture these communal areas or set them up so they're not recording at certain times of the day or while you're at home. Alternatively, you could have them record but not notify you about the motion events
