I have two properties. What I'd like to do is leave property no 1 and turn on all notifications for that property and then go to property no2 and turn off all notifications there.

 

I can't work out how to set this up in the app. I have set up two groups but can't work out how to turn off notifications only for each group.

 

The "Home" and "Away" buttons appear to control ALL cameras, not those in the groups.

 

I thought of creating two accounts, one for each property, but have found if I am logged out of an account, I don't get any notifications at all.

 

Is there a way of turning off all notifications at once from one "room" only?

You could use Automations - Let me know if you want specific detail but here they are:

 

      1. Turn on notifications for cameras x y z (where you are not) and turn off notifications for cameras a b c (where you are now) - IMPORTANT - you must set multiple actions controlling each individual camera for the notification option to come up

      2. Vice Versa.

 

You could set the trigger to the Automations a shortcut which you add to your home screen.

 

Hope this works!

@ igoboom,

 

Thanks very much for that tip. I'll investigate Automation.

 

Cheers, Toomanyrooms

So far, the home/away mode is the only method to control the camera notification on multiple devices at the same time. *Camera notification can't be controlled through notification.

 

To meet your needs, you will need two phones. If you use an Android phone, consider utilizing the dual-apps function if supported.

@ Wayne,

 

Thanks for that. Having a good explore of the app, if I go Me>Notifications>Management>Notifications, my camera (and movement sensor, whch I'm also wanting to control) is listed there, so it looks like I can manually switch off the notifications there, admittedly each one at a time. That will suffice for the time being.
