ARLO Pro 4: How to Adjust Motion Detection Sensitivity

Accessing Motion Detection Settings

• 💡 To begin, open the settings for your Arlo Pro 4 camera by tapping the icon in the top right corner of the preview screen.
• 📌 Navigate to the default mode settings where you will find the motion detection options.

Adjusting Sensitivity Levels

• ⚙️ Within the motion detection settings, you can adjust the level of sensitivity to your preference.
• 🎯 This allows you to fine-tune how the camera detects movement, reducing false alerts or ensuring all activity is captured.

Testing Motion Detection

• 🔬 To test the effectiveness of your settings, select a motion detection value and initiate a test.
• ⚡ The camera's indicator light will blink amber when it detects motion, allowing you to see if your adjustments are working.
• ⚠️ If the camera does not detect motion when set to 'low' sensitivity, even with a hand directly in front of it, the sensitivity is likely too low.

Confirming and Finalizing Settings

• ✅ Based on the test results, you can return to the settings and adjust the motion detection sensitivity to a level that works best for your needs.
• 🚀 The goal is to find a balance that ensures the camera records what matters without excessive false notifications.
