Hi, 

 

I want my doorbell to record all of the detections I set but only notify my phone when the doorbell is pressed. I can't find this setting?

 

Currently I get lots of unnecessary notifications when people walk by etc or I have to turn off notifications and I get none even when doorbell is pressed. 

 

Am I missing something? 

 

TIA

Yes, that is the setting I currently use but the camera only records when doorbell is pressed.

In this case, change the wakeup settings to "Event Detected", and then untick all the activity types in the notification settings.

There are two wake-up methods for the D230 doorbell, detection or doorbell pressed. You can change the wake-up type to Doorbell Pressed (Camera Settings -> Detection -> Wake-up Settings.) in the app, and the doorbell will only send a notification when the doorbell is pressed.
