  1. Thanks, but to note I'm looking for alerts when motion is NOT detected according to configurable rules - can the Ring Door Bell (or Ring Camera) do that?
  2. Hello, I am hoping for recommendations for the lowest cost and most reliable camera I can get that has the following features: 1. Transmits via wifi - does not need hard wiring to the internet 2. Has iPhone app for managing/configuring alerts, checking camera status etc 3. Sends email alerts or at least some kind of notification (app alert, SMS etc) 4. The notification rules can be configured so that I get an email alert (or some other kind of notification) when motion is NOT detected once (or twice) a day at the zone where the camera is pointed ... preferably with rules about time periods, eg "If no motion between 0700 and 1000, or no motion between 1400 and 2200, then ..." 5. Does not involve a subscription I live about 200 miles from my elderly mother and feature 4 is the driving force for my asking the question. If (with her permission of course) I set up the camera in her kitchen, and she does not use the kitchen at least once during a day, I'll know there's a problem and can take action. I have tried to persuade her to wear a security alarm button, which of course would be much better, but so far without success. An inexpensive camera seems like a good route to pursue. Of course, there are plenty of expensive systems, hence feature 5 and the request for something that is low cost - say, less than $200? Picture quality is ironically unimportant; I doubt I'll be looking at the footage very much at all.
