Linked devices based on Modes

The linked devices and the modes are great features. I suggest you link those two features. Provide the capability of linking devices based on mode settings. For example, if modes are set to "away" and motion is triggered, provide the capability to automatically trigger recording in linked devices in adjoining locations. This would remove any detection delay on devices as they would already be active. Subsequently, if the mode is set to "home," we may choose to disable triggering the linked device recording at specific locations.

    I would like to see the modes change the linked behaviors AND be automated as well … I.e. I’d like to have all my front yard cameras (doorbell, 2 stick ups) to be linked at night — so any motion would prompt all 3 to record (covers my cars, front doors, windows etc) … but I have kids, so there is no reason for this level of security for the 1,500 times they or their friends go in and out of the front door during the day … so if we could have one mode “default” for 7a-10p; and another the rest of the time — but be able to manually change it — would be great.

      I have my Ring Doorbells and my indoor cams linked and I run all my cams on detection while we are locked in "just incase" someone happens to get in on the other side of the house undetected while we are home. But it would be nice to have the option to have linking optional in the different modes. I do want them to record, but going through all of the notifications when the dog sets off motion on one camera and it produces a linked event on every other camera is a lot. I obviously have alerts off but still. In Home, it isn't needed so much but Away, obviously more, as you want every chance you can get to capture evidence of a security breach when Away which linking of cameras would provide.
