My ring doorbell is not notifying me of any motion and is only occasionally recording. I am able to get live view. I’ve checked settings and all seems to be set correctly. (Zones, record length) Also have a ring motion light and it is working just fine

If your Doorbell is missing motions, you will also want to look into the following settings: * [Motion Sensitivity](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/115005561866-Setting-Up-Motion-Zones-with-your-Video-Doorbell-Pro): Increase it to max since yours is missing motions. * [Smart Alerts](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360032947972-Refining-Your-Motion-Alert-Notifications-for-People-and-Other-Motions-): Enable this feature and turn on "Person" for both recordings and notifications. * If your Doorbell has a battery but is hardwired, you will have the option of selecting a [Motion Frequency](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003477106-Understanding-and-Optimizing-Motion-Detection-with-Motion-Frequency).
