You have to pay monthly for PIR detection

So far everything about these cameras is great except they detect flying bugs, waving leaves and any slight movement. Today I received over 200 notifications and entries about nonsense. I had to spend hours searching for something tangible in them with little sensitivity. What they don't tell you in the descriptions is that you have to purchase a basic plan for at least $3/month to use PIR (passive infrared) detection and cloud storage. I bought separate 128GB memory cards for the cameras so I don't have to use the plan, but I don't have time to check 200+ entries a day to find video from someone close to me. I'll try the 7 day free trial and see if it works but I feel misled and don't think I should pay for the monthly plan having already paid for the cameras and memory cards.
