Time based notifications for cameras

[shazadam]

Hey team,

I've got an outdoor cam and doorbell that are set to away only notifications which is great during the day and recording events 24/7 as needed. At night we definitely want to know if anyone is in our front yard as there have been a few incidents in the neighbourhood lately. Can we have the away only notifications linked to a time so it can flick to all notifications between 11pm and 6am? 

Adam.

Hi @shazadam,

Thanks for posting here in the community. I understand your concern about having the away-only notifications linked to a time between 11 pm and 6 am. I'm happy to help!

Currently, there isn't an option to automatically switch notification settings based on time. However, you can try this tip:

• Create a Routine: Set up a routine that triggers at 11 PM and another at 6 AM. Refer to this article: Create a Nest camera schedule with the app.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Regards,

Melany

Hey Melany,

That will stop all recording outside of 11pm and 6am, which doesn't work for us. 

Can we have a view if this feature is on a roadmap for Google home?
