Wired Doorbell camera - constant notifications

[OysterCop]

Wired doorbell camera worked great for months. Now it keeps sending notifications constantly when nothing is in front of it. I removed it and reinstalled. Same results.

This rather sounds like the sun's angle has changed and its IR is either directly or indirectly being detected as "motion". Try setting a zone that's as small as practical as well as reducing the motion sensitivity in your modes and rules. I happen to use a setting of 45 which works well in my case.

It does it all night long as well as daytime.

STart by removing the doorbell from your account and maybe resetting it.

The activity zone and detection settings are still recommended.

I did that twice. I think the camera has gone bad.

Use Settings, Support, choose the doorbell and start the process of a possible RMA if still within the warranty period.

I've been having the same issue for the last 2 days. Every few minutes another notification. One more day and I might just rip it off the wall.

The sun's angle changes over time so could be causing IR reflections. Have you done all the suggestions in this thread?

[Bigbowtrout]

It has been happening all day and all night. I've tried everything mentioned on this forum.  I've settled on turning off notifications from the app. I'll reach out to Arlo once I find some time.

Cheers
