This feature allows you to set content access rights for each profile or at the device level. You can also block or approve websites. Known in Plume Home App as a Focus, this can be used for anyone who needs time away from electronic devices.

1. A Focus can be created from the home dashboard if there are none active, or from within the Profiles page.
2. To create a new Focus, start by pressing the “+” button on the Profiles page.
3. Start by naming your Focus and select the devices or profiles that will be included, then tap the “Next” button.
4. On the following screen, select either “All” or custom tile options. “All” will disable internet access entirely, while custom options allow specific app categories (e.g., social networking) or individual applications (e.g., Facebook) to be paused.
5. If proceeding with a custom Focus, select the desired categories or individual apps, then press “Next” to proceed.
6. You must now schedule your Focus to be one-time, recurring, or indefinite. Select a start and end date for one-time or recurring Focuses. An indefinite Focus will remain active until you deactivate it.
7. Select the applicable days of the week for a one-time or recurring Focus. Once completed, tap “Create” and the Focus will be activated based on these settings.

Features Include

• Live View – Take a look inside your network to see where the motion is currently happening.
• Motion Alerts – Receive push notifications when motion takes place, based on when people are at home.
• Motion History  – View 24h or 7 days of the history of motion in your home.
• Personalization – Settings can be customized to fit you, your family, and your home, including motion sensitivity, pet mode, motion alert frequency, and where motion detection is tracked in your home.

How to Enable

• Open the Settings page and tap on the “Notifications” tile.
• Turn the “Motion” toggle on. The toggle will only appear if motion detection is enabled.
• Choose the Time between alerts. This sets the minimum interval option (5 minutes, 10 minutes, 30 minutes, or 1 hour) between notifications when motion is detected.

Assigning a Primary Device

Each member of the household can have a primary device assigned to their profile. This device will be used to determine when you are at home or away based on when the device connects or disconnects from the network.

Understanding Motion Data

Different colors will appear in your Motion Data based on your settings and activity. The degree of transparency represents the intensity of motion at the time.

• Blue – Motion was detected, but people are home
• Red – Motion was detected and everyone is away. Motion alerts would have been sent during this time.
• Gray – Motion detection was disabled.

Advanced security allows real-time protection against cyberthreats. Plus, you can control which security features are enabled.

• • Online Defense – activates a real-time protection against ransomware, malware, and more
  • Advanced IoT Protection – protects your network and connected devices against hackers and cyber criminals
  • Ad Blocking– blocks loading of web and video ads
  • Content Filtering – allows you to restrict the type of internet content accessible while connected to Plume Home

2. Tap on Remote access.
3. In the pop-up menu, choose your level of protection:

• • Block all – All incoming connections are automatically blocked until you manually approve them
  • Block only high risk – Only incoming connections considered as high risk will be automatically blocked
  • Disable – This disables Remote access protection allowing incoming connection
