Can I combine motion schedules with modes?
I am thinking about setting up some motion schedules so that (for example) I don't get motion alarms on my driveway during the day, but do get them at night. This would be ideal for when I am home, or in Home mode.

Hi @sharper3. You cannot combine these two features. We do have a Modes Schedule that might be a good solution for you. You can find out more about this feature [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360060532451-How-to-Arm-and-Disarm-Ring-Alarm-with-Mode-Schedules).

THi @sharper3. I can certainly pass along this feedback! I also suggest making a more formal request in our Feature Request Board. Additionally, our [Geofence](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360052805372-Geofence-in-the-Ring-App) feature might be useful as well!

Hi @sharper3. Do you have Modes For Cameras enabled? This feature allows you to select how your Cameras behave when you are in a specific Mode. This Help Center article [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360036107792-Control-All-your-Ring-Cameras-with-Modes) has more information on Modes for Cameras. Let me know how you like this feature!
