Motion is triggering way to much for me - If you're getting an
abundance of motion events then this might have to do with your smart alert setting
within the Ring App. If you check the smart alert section located in the motion
settings you should be able to see whether or not it is set to light, standard, or frequent.
These settings control the frequency at which you will receive motion events.
**Light** would be ideal if you are getting too much motion captured on Standard or
Frequent. This setting can also help to preserve the longevity of a battery charge far
better than the other settings as this slightly decreases the frequency at which you
receive motion alerts.
**Standard** is ideal for normal performance of the Ring Doorbell as a standard
default.
**Frequent** tends to work well on a hardwired charge since it will most likely take up
a fair amount of the charge on the Ring Doorbell. The benefit is that you end up getting
as many motion alerts as possible assuming that this is the goal.
