Hi @ag1234! Optimal motion detection is best obtained through adjusting the motion related settings in your Ring app and testing through trial and error. Depending on your Doorbell model, [motion frequency](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003477106-Understanding-and-Optimizing-Motion-Detection-with-Motion-Frequency) is a great setting to check. In addition to zones and sensitivity, [Motion Verification](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038727232-Understanding-and-Using-Motion-Verification-on-Ring-Devices) and [People Only mode](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360032947972-Refining-Your-Alert-Notifications-with-People-Only-Mode) are some other options worth checking. Other than the various motion settings available in the Ring app, there are also environmental factors to consider. If your entryway is at the top of stairs, a porch, or an inclined yard/ path leading up to it, a [Wedge Kit](https://shop.ring.com/products/wedge-kit-for-video-doorbell?filters=type%3Ainstallation-mounts) may be a solid solution for improving detection. I hope this helps! :)
