March 14, 2025

To remove the face detection circles in Mevo camera recordings, you need to turn off the "Find Faces" feature. Follow these steps:

1. Open the more options menu.
2. Tap the camera assistant icon on the far left.
3. Disable Find Faces by tapping it. The icon should change from white to gray.

This will stop the blue boxes from appearing around detected faces.
