From the release notes
  • You may now override the profile on a per-camera basis using the camera settings page in the mobile app. The necessary version 1.63 has been submitted to Apple for approval, and the Android app will be updated soon thereafter. This provides a way to temporary change the behavior of a specific camera--for example if the kids are playing in the driveway or a camera is continuously triggering due to rain etc.
That particular camera is inactive as per the icon.

But inactive doesn't mean it stops recording correct? Because I am still seeing clips being saved in the app.

try pressing profile 1 then going back to the camera view and see if its gone.
Also in the camera properties on the server>schedule uncheck override global.
