It would be nice if we had a simple on/off toggle button in the app to mute notifications instead of muting for 30 minutes, 1 hour or 3 hours each time.

    Hi @MikeSask 

     

    Thank you for your feedback, we greatly appreciate the community’s contribution. I will provide this information to the appropriate team for future consideration.

     

    There is also a 24-hour option, as this feature was designed for temporary use. For a more permanent solution, you can remove notifications from the routine, which only takes two additional steps.

Better yet, if i could schedule when i want notifications, that would be even more ideal. Like Monday to Friday 10 pm to 8 am. Etc.

You can potentially do that.

 

Do you have any schedule in place now?

Do you see "Feed" and "Dashboard"  in your app menu?  Or do you instead see "Library"?

Then modify Arm Home to remove the notifications (but keep the cameras armed).

 

Then you can schedule switching between Arm Away and Arm Home to schedule the notifications.

 

Let us know if you need more details on how to set this up.

I have muted for 24 hours every single day since I got these cameras about two years ago. I don’t want to set up a routine. I just want an option to mute more than 24 hours. A week? A month? Permanently?

You can just change the camera rules in the mode(s) you are using so they won't notify you when they detect motion.

 

Apple also lets you disable all notifications for an app.  Not sure about Android, but I'm pretty sure it also allows that.
