Essential Spotlight Camera

I bought the 3 pack of Arlo Essential Wire-Free Cameras back in November. Now I noticed that they haven't recorded anything since yesterday. Do I have to have the Arlo subscription to use these cameras? Any help would be greatly appreciated

You do need a subscription to get cloud storage. Details on what you can use w/o a subscription is here: https://kb.arlo.com/41/How-do-I-change-the-motion-sensitivity-on-my-Arlo-camera

Basically just live streaming (with optional 2-way audio), and notifications. Auto track/zoom doesn't apply to your cameras, and local storage requires that they be connected to a base/smarthub.
