How do I turn off notifications for camera motion sensing?
I want the camera to record when it senses motion, and record in the timeline.
I also want notifications if the alarm actually goes off (entry sensors, etc).
But this new outdoor camera just triggers from absolutely nothing all the time, and my phone becomes unusable.
I have reduced the motion sensing squares to only cover the very still concrete floor, and set sensitivity to Low, but it's still triggering too much to be useful.

I will be doing a full review early next week after the holiday.

Our battery life estimate of 3-6 months is based on typical use, so night vision is included.
It might be useful to know what exactly is triggering the motion detection. We're still in the process of tweaking the intelligent motion detection, so it's possible that your camera could trigger from things that aren't people, but it thinks are people-shaped. A common example that we've seen is flags that are hanging down when there's not enough wind - since it's a tall object that's moving around.
But yep, sounds like having Motion turned off entirely could work for your needs anyway.

If I were to turn off motion events, that would just mean the camera is available on-demand to live view, right?

That's right. Assuming that you have a recording subscription, you'll still get the recordings. You just won't be notified immediately about them.

Is there anyway to stop the notifications when you’re at home so alarm is ‘off’ or ‘home’, I have an outdoor camera in the garden and get a notification whenever we move past it (which in the summer is frequent, so notifications are way too often).
