people only mode

I have no "people only mode" on my ring video doorbell 2. I have it hard wired. I am still in the initial 30 day trial period. Anyone know why?

    Doorbell doesn't have the people only option. Only the spotlight and flood cameras have it.

      My Ring Doorbell pro does have people only option.

      I installed (hardwired) and activated a Video Doorbell 2 after Christmas 2019 and signed up for the Protect Basic plan to start at the end of my 30 day free trial. The Ring app on my iPhone does not offer the 'People Only' tile on the device settings screen. How do I get that tile activated? I have tried logging out and then back in to the app but that doesn't do it. Isn't 'People Only' available during the free trial? Or does it only start once the plan officially starts?

      You won't see" people only tile". Instead, you should see a tile called "smart alerts". If you click that tile the people only option is in there. At least that is how it is on mine.

      Well that tile isn't there either, Smart Alerts is missing.

      I have a Ring Pro and Android app so the "People Only Mode" is under-Devices, Video Doorbells (click on whatever you name your ring doorbell...), Motion Settings and viola! hope that helps.

    i have people only mode on my doorbell 2, under Smart alerts, but i cant find it on the settings for my spotlight cam or my stick up cams. i am to understand that one of the new features is 'people only mode' for battery operated devices, and when you click on the details all it says is People only mode for battery operated devices- feature enabled. so does that mean it is just a new embedded features and not something that you can turn on or off yourself?
