Are Scheduling Recordings Possible?
Is there a way to schedule recordings? I know I can schedule motion alerts, but that doesn’t stop the camera from recording motion— it only stops the alert on your phone. Is there a way to actually stop the camera from recording during certain hours? To save battery, I only want the camera to record motion at night, but I don’t want to have to manually turn the motion capture on/off in the app every day. Is this possible?

You'd be better off just setting your router to prioritize your son's device in it's settings. This way whenever he's on his game won't be affected by anything else. I'm sure he'd be very happy for it. Your internet provider should be able to help you set it up or you could just Google your router make and model.

GIn response to: Eagle 328 I have done that.... prioritising his xbox over everything else on the mesh network that i have.. Makes no difference.. As soon as the camera activates.. 'Dad lag' kicks in... (Even though the cameras are not prioritised devices on the network but they still seem to be sapping a lot of the available bandwidth)

We have poor WiFi and with my son playing Fortnite in our office unit outside, whenever someone goes outside he experiences what he calls 'Dad Lag' as the camera kicks in and hogs bandwidth meaning he gets kicked out during gameplay. It would be great to be able to schedule recording as you can with motion detection. Come on Ring, these are expensive pieces of kit surely you can add this feature to make the system even more flexible. ..?
