Google Nest Camera Notifying of Vehicles Outside of Zone

sTeaLthPoett — Wed, 14 Dec 2022 23:26:58 GMT

I have had this working flawlessly for months. I recently added a few more cameras to my system and suddenly my Driveway camera has started notifying my phone when it sees Vehicles outside of the zone I have created. I have it set to ignore anything outside of the zone and yet it continues to tell me when a car goes by on the street well outside of the zone. I have removed the zone and readded it, power cycled the camera, and so on to no avail. It is driving me nuts. I want to be able to know when a vehicle pulls into my driveway but I am being told about EVERY car that goes by. Any ideas on what I can try to get it to work properly? Thanks.

Hey sTeaLthPoett,

Oh no! I'm sorry to hear that. A few questions: has the camera been moved recently? Are there other family members who can access the camera? Do they receive any notifications? How many Activity zones are set up on your camera? Also, have you tried resetting the camera to its default settings? Learn more here.

Thanks,

Archie

Hi there. Thank you for responding. I reset the zone a few different times and removed it from the camera entirely and read it and it finally stopped doing it. I think I’m good now. Thank you for your help.
