How do I switch privacy mode on/off for Hive View and Hive View Outdoor?
You can choose when to check in and when to get some privacy by remotely switching camera monitoring on or off . When monitoring is on livestreaming will be available and event detection will be active. When monitoring is off this will be unavailable.
To switch between monitoring on and monitoring off simply:
1. Head to your Hive app and log-in if needed using your username and password
2. Select the camera you wish to view from the dashboard
3. Select the “Shield” icon underneath the viewing pane to toggle between on and off
You can also set a schedule to manage the camera on and off:
1. Head to your Hive app and log-in if needed using your username and password
2. Select the camera you wish to view from the dashboard
3. Select the “Schedule” icon from the tab bar
4. Set up the schedule as your would any other device
To fully turn off your Hive View, use the power button on the device. As your camera will no longer be online you'll need to turn it back on at the power button before accessing remotely through the Hive app.
