Confirm that events are being recorded
Open the event history. If clips exist but no alert appeared, focus on app and phone notification settings. If no events exist, check power, connectivity, detection zones, sensitivity, schedules, and physical framing.
Check both app and phone controls
An enabled switch inside the feeder app can still be blocked by the operating system, battery optimization, Focus mode, notification summaries, or revoked background permissions. Review official app guidance for the current phone version.
Rule out connection problems
Weak outdoor Wi‑Fi or an offline camera can prevent timely delivery. Test live view, check battery, then move the camera near the router. Change one variable at a time.
Reduce noise without hiding visits
Use quiet hours, cooldowns, zones, or classifications where documented. Extreme sensitivity reductions can stop useful alerts along with false ones, so compare event history after each change.
