I think I understood how it works:

• schedule has to be activated for 24h all days
• one button to enable all notifications
• one button to disable all notifications

The problem is that I have to press every day in the morning and in the evening shortcuts, plus each time there are exceptions.
Whereas of course I would like to manage only exceptions, and when back home, to switch back to standard schedules...

I have just ordered the Home Hub. But I think it won't help : same problem.
I will see...

Hello,
I have wifi cameras with their own SD card to watch my house and now I have the Home Hub.

I do not understand why a local LAN Network is better for the points you mentionned in my case.
Or I do not understand what you mean exactly by "local LAN network". Or you are speaking about the private wifi ? (that I do not use)

Internet independence : I say to myself that it would be poor chance if I have an internet lost connection and at same time someone visiting my house... In this case however, the HH could not alert me too if I am away.
Network efficiency : as some cameras are far from the room where I have my devices, cameras are connected to wifi extenders. So I disabled HH wifi. In case I had not, it is another wifi at home. I do not see why it would be more efficient except if home wifi is crowded... Maybe for some people, right.
Privacy Benefits : I have no video on the cloud but as there is a feature to crypt data, it would be interesting for some people. But not related to "local LAN network', only a HH feature.

Currently, Home Hub allow me to have a centralized storage. I hope it would be a relief as several times I had a camera that the SD card get out. So I have to take my ladder, insert again the card, then format...

One day I hope the application will use the Hub to manage efficiently one schedule for all and one notifications configuration for all. One day...

@joseph_1979 I just received the Home Hub and it is confirmed it is useless as scenes are using the configured schedules.
Very disappointed.

2 cases that arrived past days with shortcuts :
1) Once I used the shortcut to disable all alarms with success. But one camera had its Push notification still enabled while its Email notification was disabled appropriatly. Not reliable. Of course it fired when one came at home. Harmless as we where here. But what if one camera is not enabled whereas asked to ?...
2) During night I enabled all alarms with one shortcuts but one morning my daughter had to go for job early. This waked me up. Without shortcuts, no problem as it was following the schedule properly configured...

Using shortcuts : to enable/disable manually twice a day at least. And not reliable. ==> to forget
Without shortcuts : no alarm if I leave the house during a disabled period in the schedule ==> what a pity !

I always wonder if engineers are using what they have built...

I never saw this feature ! Never saw the button !
It seems exactly what I need.
  
So I tested it.
I followed "What is Shortcut..." : created 2 shortcuts, one for when I leave home and one when I am back.
I pressed it and enabled notifications with success.
 
Well. I went outside to get alerts. Nothing happened. Hum. I do not understand.

If it works one day, I wonder what do exactly the shortcut "back home" : disable all alerts or go back to standard schedule ?...

For the Home Hub, from what I understood it creates its own wifi network. Currently I have several wifi extenders to reach all cameras (and else). Not sure one wifi access point will work for all cameras...

Hello,

I have 5 Argus 3 pro cameras around the house and car park.
I configured for each cameras, 2 notification schedules : Push + email.

When I need to leave my house for 1 day or more, I need to update 10 schedules. When I am back, to do the same again.
Of course I never do not do that.
It is a non sense as those cameras are supposed to improve security.

Same problem when I leave house for a couple of hours.

To be effectively useful, the application need to manage one schedule for all cameras.
And 1 button to enable notifications quickly, whatever the schedule.

Currently, cameras are used only during the night. It is a pity...

Regards.
