Hi, how do I change the sensitivity of the spot light as it comes on from 18:00 hours when it detects motion even in sun light. I only want it to come on when it’s dark? I can’t find a setting in the app. Help!

    Hi @Fieldcottage7. The Spotlight Cam should only turn the light on when motion is detected if the ambient lighting is dark enough. If it's the middle of the day with direct sunlight on the Spotlight Cam, the light shouldn't come on with motion. If it is later in the day towards the evening and the sun is setting, the light may come on with motion as the ambient lighting gets darker around the Camera. You can also use [Light Schedules](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-gb/articles/360058421812-How-to-Use-Security-Camera-Light-Schedules-) to designate times when you want the light on your Spotlight Cam to remain on or off.
