Gen5: Motion Zones

Tired of that tree branch or flag in your yard triggering false positive motion alerts?

With the introduction of the SkyBell Gen5 App we provide a way to tune your motion detection! 

How To Use

• Go to MY DEVICES
  • Select the Gear Icon at the Top Right of the SkyBell you want to adjust.  
• If you have not done so, enable Motion Detection (click here to learn how).
• Tap on Motion Zones
  • This will load a grid, you can tap on any of the spaces to darken, or black out.
• After you chose the spaces you don't want the camera to trigger motion, tap SAVE CHANGES. 
• To return to the previous screen select, BACK.

Helpful Tips:

Since we are trying to stop false motion triggers, you may want to select a couple of blocks around the space you believe is triggering motion. You would be surprised how much an object moves.

If you want the SkyBell to only "see" a small amount of space, use the SELECT ALL option to block out everything, and then unselect what you DO want to see.
