I want to have better notifications on my iPhone if a camera detects a person (specifically a person).   Right now, I can only figure out how to have it give the general iPhone notification, which is easy to miss.  I don't want to change all my iOS notifications to something more, just Arlo only.  If someone knows how to do this, please let me know. 

 

Otherwise, I'm hoping I can use the Home app (HomeKit) in iOS to give me better notifications.  The issue is that I can only choose to have the camera trigger an automation for general motion detection, not anything specific like a person detection.   Arlo does a great job of identifying a person from a bird, so hopefully this is possible to set up?

 

I am still on the trial subscription of Arlo Smart, so I think it might be a configuration thing between Arlo and HomeKit?

 

Appreciate the help in advance!

I have a similar query. I would like to set up HomeKit automation specific to a person being detected rather than general motion. i.e. if a perdón is detected rather a cat play audio on my bedroom speaker at night!
