How do I turn on/off notifications?

Alfred Support
  • Updated

There are two kinds of notifications in AlfredCamera: Motion Detection notifications and battery notifications. Here's how to: 

Motion Detection Notifications

Alfred’s Motion Detection algorithm decides if there has been a “movement” by comparing one frame with the next. Once a movement is detected, you will receive a notification. If you click on the first notification you receive, you will be taken to the live session. If you click on the second notification you receive, you will be taken to the Event Book.

If you upgrade to Alfred Premium and turn on "Person only," you will only receive Motion Detection notifications when a person is detected.

To turn on/off the Motion Detection notifications:

  1. Tap on the Camera settings wheel

  2. Switch the Notifications toggle on/off

Battery Notifications

Alfred alerts you when your phone is not charging, has low battery, or is charging too slowly. These notifications prevent your Camera device from disconnecting or shutting off. Currently you can only turn on/off batter notifications on Android devices.

To turn on/off the battery notifications:

  1. Tap on the Camera settings wheel
