No motion deteted #1232

Hello everyone,

I recently bought the Eufy Cam Indoor Pan and Tilt 2K camera. I set it up using the Eufy Security app, enabled HomeKit, and let it run for a while.

Now, I’d like to integrate this camera into my Home Assistant for automations. I have Home Assistant installed via Docker Compose and the same I did for this eufy_security_ws and added the Eufy integration through HACS. The camera is now linked to Home Assistant, and I can control features like motion detection, turning it on and off.

However, I'm running into an issue: although I can control the camera, it doesn’t seem to be detecting any motion—it always shows as "clear."

Any idea where the issue can be?

+1 Here happy to provide debug/logging etc as required, let me know what's needed

I have T8210 Battery Doorbell and 2 x eufyCam 2C cameras - behaving exactly the same.

Motion detection behaving as expected in eufy App, but nothing getting through to home assistant (clear rather than unavailable)

Running home assistant OS on rasberry pi

Not sure if this is useful to @Martin-Lucan or the developers, but I tweaked a couple of settings in my app and this has now come back. I don't really see why the API would be affected by the notification sound set on the phone, so seems more likely that causes subscription to an endpoint to renew or similar, but possibly worthy of investigation.

this solution is relying on push notifications, which are delivered to add-on and your mobile phone at the same time. if you disable them, add-on will not receive any instant events like motion, vehicle, person, face etc
