If your Floodlight Camera turns on during the day and you only want the light to turn on during the night, please follow these steps:

  1. Open the smart life app
  2. Select the Floodlight under 'All Devices'
  3. Select the pencil (settings) at the top right corner
  4. Under Basic Setting tab, select 'IR Night Vision'
  5. If this is set to 'ON' and motion is detected, the light will turn on whether it is daylight, overcast or night time. 
  6. If this is set to 'Auto' and motion is detected, the light will turn on during the night, unless it is a heavily overcast day.

When you change the settings, wait for a minute or two for the setting to take effect.
