Multiple Sentry alerts

[MacGreiner]

Anyone have multiple (false) sentry alerts come up today?
Both of our 3 today alerted us of possible incidences. They seemed to be either shadows, cars moving in the background or people walking past.

It's the first time i've seen the actual prompt come up today, but haven't checked the footage yet.

Did you get an alert on your phone?? I came out of wrk to find this on my screen--- but no alert ever came over the phone. And same, I haven't had time to look at files yet, but no noticeable flaws on car. They were mowing the lawn and blowing/weeding the building where I work... hmmmmm..

Alerts from the Tesla mobile app only occur when the alarm is triggered. The Sentry mode event report on-screen just notifies the owner how many times the "Sentry Mode is recording" screen has been triggered by motion.

ROGER! Thanks! Today was the first time I had any such alert!

Only on the screen as you experienced.

While I see the on-screen Sentry event occur, it shows a 1. Yet there are a lot of recent recorded videos.
Not sure what those videos are categorized as for being recorded.

Recent firmware update (12.1.x?) added the on-screen notification of alerts. Previously, it still saved alert event videos, but you just didn't know about them until you pulled the USB drive and reviewed its contents.

I got so spooked I can't find it. It's somewhere.

This was me parked right next to the exit lane at Universal Studios

I can confirm that when an alarm is triggered, your app will alert. This motion events recordings are that; motion activated recordings.

Me too. Happened while we were out at dinner and car parked in a public garage. Traced it back to a vehicle driving by. When my husband left to check it out he could hear a car horn beeping on and off and heard some car revving it's engine and maybe also same vehicle playing really loud music. Car was fine. Here was my post about it. You will get a phone notification in addition to the SavedClip if it triggers an Alarm state.


Alert: How do you know if Sentry Mode activated?

I got three alerts today while at Costco. Did not get an alert on my phone. Checked the footage (boring) and check my car did not see anything alarming.

If you think about it someone near your car could scratch it as we've seen in some video but without shaking the car like an impact to set off an Alarm. So while people complain about alerts on their phone and nothing there, at some point there could be and you'd be glad you had the video saved off.

I got a bunch of new Sentry mode alerts whiled parked at the airport the other day. Spent quite a bit of time reviewing them. All were benign, just people getting in and of their cars parked nested to mine. The footage is dumped into a separate “saved” folder but still takes a lot of time to review.
