Plan detail
On-device recording and the listed detections do not require CloudPlay. Optional cloud storage is separate.
Continuous recording
Always-On Video (AOV) saves interval snapshots between events and switches to normal-speed video when activity is detected. The idle timeline is time-lapse, so this mode does not meet an uninterrupted 24/7 video requirement.
Internet outage
Local recording can continue while the device and local storage retain power; remote alerts and viewing need internet.
