GPS Location and Arlo Commands

Bearscreek — Thu, 29 Sep 2016 22:56:21 GMT

I have an IFTTT recipe I use in order to disarm my wireless cameras when I'm approaching my house, as I really don't want to video myself getting out of the car, etc. It works perfectly. I set up what I think is an identical recipe to disarm my Arlo Q, but it has never run. Has anyone experienced anything like this? I haven't used geofencing from the app because of other people in the house, etc.

Bearscreek,

I have not attempted specifically the recipe you mention but it does sound like Geofencing would work well for what you're trying to do.

For the Arlo Q, select Geofencing and set Home to disarmed and Away to the mode you use for motion detection.

I guess my main problem with geofencing is that I use different configurations for when I'm away, depending on if someone is left at home or if no one is home at the time.
