Hi be7 

Thanks for the inquiry.

Please be aware that the Wireless Doorbell and the 360 Camera have different functionality due to the battery/power usage and capability.

The only option for your Roku Smart Home Wireless Doorbell to receive notifications for Person events would be to set your Smart Detection on your wireless doorbell to only Person events and then your notifications set to only Smart Detection, while leaving your recording for all events. Please be aware that leaving recording for all events may use more battery power on your Roku Smart Home Wireless Doorbell depending on how much activity may be detected with your doorbell.


Thanks,
Danny
