Getting notifications

[Snm616]

I cannot get notification to show up on my phone or to get my camera to go off for movement. I can view my live cam. Help!

Hi Snm616,

What phone device are you using? Are you using a custom mode? If so, try using the default "Armed" mode and see if you receive any push notification when motion is detected.

I just set up my Arlo system. I am not getting notifications every time either and my 2 cameras I have up so far aren't sensing motion unless I am right next to them.

Hi KDS8,

Have you tried using the motion detection test to see if your camera detects motion? You can read here to learn how to use the motion detection test: How do I use the motion detection test for my Arlo device?

Yes, I made the adjustment to the sensitivity and that helped.
