Why does the app turn off certain things on my camera and why is my camera only working when I only show up or any of my kids show up

    Hi @user_3276b1. Can you clarify what you mean when you say things are being turned off? Without a compatible camera and plan for 24/7 Recording, your Ring camera will only record when motion is detected, or you activate the Live View. We have tips on how to optimize motion detection here.
