Ring Video Doorbell
Sunlight Triggers Motion Sensor
I live where it's gray much of the year. My ring doorbell motion sensor works great in the winter, only triggering when someone actually approaches the door. In the summer, all bets are off. This is one of our first warm, sunny days and the sensor has been triggering every 4-6 minutes. What can I do to fix this issue? I already have motion zones set up, and like I said, it works great on a cooler, cloudy day.

I mean, there's a tree that's far away from the camera. The shadow does approach the door in the afternoon, but it's the shadow of the WHOLE tree, not a few branches. Also, every car going by sets it off even though it's set to exclude the street and set to the lowest motion sensitivity. I guess the answer is just that this doorbell is not going to work properly no matter what I do.

I have this same issue. I’m constantly getting motion detection on sunny days when a car drives past. I’ve removed the street from the motion zone but still the issue persists. It only occurs on sunny days. Drives me crazy! Please help! These are people driving shiny cars down a neighborhood street, I can’t just “remove them”.
