Check-ins that start with what you asked us to watch
Your daily check-in used to open with a general recap of everything the cameras saw. It now starts with the moments you chose on your observation checklist. When something stands out, such as a stumble, or something you usually see that did not happen today, it comes first, with the time it happened and how that compares with the last two weeks. On a calm day the summary is short: your checklist looked like a usual day, plus one specific moment from it.
Where to find it: at the top of every daily check-in email, under How things looked. The same summary appears on each check-in in the portal.
How to read it: when something is worth your attention, the Suggested next step box in the email names the time and the camera and includes a Watch the clip link, so you can see the moment for yourself and decide what it means. When nothing stands out, that box is left off. The summary describes what the cameras recorded; it does not diagnose or interpret it. If you have not picked the moments you want watched yet, you can choose them in Settings.
Also in this update, two smaller fixes. Night wandering on your checklist is more accurate: it now counts only movement recorded between 10 PM and 6 AM in your time zone, so ordinary evening and early morning activity no longer shows up as night wandering. And deleting your account is more dependable: a long activity history is now cleared in steps, and if a deletion is interrupted, you can simply try again.
