Are you color blind? My motion tagging boxes are green. If you want to turn it off open the cam on the app, to live view, on the bottom right of the page you will see three lines that says more, open that. Then you can go to motion tagging and tap that to turn it off. If you have the new correct firmware that was updated yesterday you can now schedule motion event recordings to the outdoor cam local SD card. If you do not make a schedule the cam sends the videos to the SD card in the base if you have one installed .
