When motion is detected, can the Arlo system also trigger sirens?

My niece lives in the country and was recently burglarized. She now wants to get a security system and was considering getting a monitored system (monthly fee).

Her father and I told her that, by the time the monitoring service contacts the county sheriff and a deputy can get out there, her next burglar will have gathered up everything he wanted and be long gone. We told her she would be bettter off with a local wireless system wireless cameras that will show her who is trying to break in when motion is sensed, as well as set off a loud outdoor siren and an ear-piercing indoor siren at the same time.

This Arlo system looks like it has everything she would need, except I cannot see that it has the ability to also trigger the sirens. Does it have that capability? If not, why not? It seems like it would be very easy to incude an accessory port of some sort to allow sirens to be attached and receive a signal at the same time the system is sending the owner an alert to check the video feed.

Obviously, the purpose of the sirens would be to scare away the burglar, which would seen to be a consistent task with obtaining video of the event.

At this time Arlo does NOT have the ability to trigger alarms.... but with the recent linking to smart devices , this may change soon
