I do not have a floodlight cam, but people mode works well on my stick-up cams. I was also having trouble with squirels and this solved it. Once you turn on people mode you cannot adjust the sensitivity, the camera optimizes itself at that point. But you can still set zones.

Go to the Device and Select Motion Settings. Should see a People Only Mode. I turned it on and it solved my squirrel problem. Though it did record a cat and possum so not perfect but much, much better.

I do not have that option. I checked both my Android phone app (which updated today) and Ipad app. The only options under motion settings are: Settings: Motion Detection Motion Verification Advanced settings: Motion Schedule Motion Frequency Even under those there is no People Mode. I do not have any Modes settings. All firmware for both cameras and apps are updated.

Which camera do you have? My floodlight camera has very different Motion Settings: - Motion Zones - People Only Mode - Motion Sensitivity - Adv Setting: Motion Schedule I'm also using Android.

I recently installed the ring3 plus 2 locations. The front door is set for people only. I have discovered that if one approaches the door in full winter garb (including beanie/hat, it will not record or take notices. If hat removed, it will. This is a problem for those of us in most of USA during winter months or in any area since a thief wearing a beanie would go undetected.

Same issue with my new Floodlight Cam. Sensitivity turn all the way down. People mode on. BUT it still picks up squirrels, sunlight/shadows, falling leaves. Jeez, guys! Can't you do better than this?

I can’t find it but mine doesn’t record if our car turns up and drives straight into the garage or if someone drives onto the drive then off again without getting out.  I’d like to turn it off if possible but can’t find it.

Hi @IssyUK. I would recommend looking into checking if you have Smart Alerts on. If you do, toggle on Other Motion. If it is enabled and if it's not detecting vehicles, try toggling off Smart Alerts to see if that makes a difference. I would also suggest increasing your Motion Sensitivity. Let me know if this helps.
