Hi, I am using Arlo 2 but my motion detection is “to slow”. To many clips showing People leaving the zone. Any ideas ? My motionsetting is 100%

What’s your internet upload speed? It takes 10-15 seconds to see the video in the app. But you do get an immediate picture of the trigger motion on the device portion of the app.

Sorry. Reread your question. Try to position the cameras so the motion crosses in front of the camera. If motion come straight on the detection can be delayed.

Just as an FYI. I use the Arlo light to activate my cameras quicker to record motion. It picks up the triggering motion quicker in other words to start the camera recording sooner.

I have mine hardwired. It backs it up 3 sec. I get a video before movement starts.
