Eufy neefs to have cam notifications enabled in the Eufy phone app.  
Most apps have manuals / howto’s in their dedicated app topics:

### A note about the use of this card:

Homey isn’t very good in processing conditions covering two days.  
To workaround that, it’s best to invert that card twice:

This has exactly the same result.

### Trigger tip:

There’s no need to use the card with the “On during 1 second” option.  
You can just use “Motion detected” (_beweging gedetecteerd_) trigger cards
