How to add another device as trusted devices?

Bluesky-BC — Mon, 25 Jul 2022 15:28:30 GMT

I am using Windos 10 PC and already mobile ( Android ) phone as trusted device. But I often use pc as well to lon-in to Arlo. But it is very annoying to get code ( by mail or SMS or whatever ) to log-in. When I log in in PC, i already clicked " TRUST THIS DEVICE" so many times but it is not registered as trusted device. I deleted mobile from rusted device then tried to add PC as rusted device but failed. Neue Nachricht Please let me know how can I add one more device as rusted device. Thanks ! ( Chrome, Egde... nothing works )

I don’t believe you are able to have a browser as a trusted 2fa device.

Generally the pc browser arlo trust cookie is set to expire 14 days after it has been initially set. Not sure if it gets refreshed but unlikely.

If you’re using incognito mode in the browser it will always require a 2fa request when you open start the browser and login.

When you reboot the pc the arlo trust cookie is invalidated and requires to be refreshed. Some suggest hibernating the pc to get around this.
