I’ve had an ultra camera for a little over a year now positioned in the upper corner of my porch facing my front door. Just today I noticed I had got some deliveries and no notifications. It is no longer picking up cats that walk past either. I removed the camera from the hub, pulled the battery and repaired the device to my smart hub with no luck. When doing a motion test I can swing my front door fully open in the field of view and it does not detect a thing, if I step outside and get right up on the camera it will detect motion then. The camera has worked perfectly up until this point. I am no longer subscribed to the smart plan so it has nothing to do with zones. What could explain this random collapse of motion detection?? I have 2 other cameras and they are all working like normal.

What is your motion sensitivity setting in your modes and rules? Have you tried increasing it? While I don't think it will prove anything, swap cameras around to see what happens.
