Feature Request: Automatic File Removal Per Device

I've got a simple feature request to have automatic file deletion at the camera level and not just app-wide. Example: Driveway camera deletes files older than 7 days and Side Yard deletes after 3 days.

  • It's a nice idea, but we don't get a lot of requests for this, and it would require significant work to implement so I think we have to focus our development efforts on more important features and improvements.

    There is a relatively easy workaround, which would be to create a disk image (using Disk Utility) for each camera, with approximately the right amount of space needed to record the required amount of days for each camera, and set each camera to its respective disk image. SecuritySpy will then auto-delete old files when these become full (assuming this option is turned on in the Preferences).
