Arlo Phone nag

Hi,

When I open the Arlo app on my Samsung Android 13 phone I keep getting a nag to allow Arlo to make and manage phone calls. This nag showed up a few days ago.

Here's a screen shot of the nag.

I don't want or need Arlo Secure to make and manage my phone calls.

Question: How to I permanently disable this nag?

Thanks for any assistance you can offer.

Joe

I believe that's required for E911/emergency calls. Did you set that up? Even if you didn't, it's not like Arlo is tracking you.

Reply to jguerdat - There is no definitive reason given by Arlo as to what the app actually does if you allow it to "make and manage" your phone calls.

It appears you are not sure either when you posted, "I believe that's required for E911/emergency calls".

No I did not set it up and will not set it up. That said, I appreciate the time you took to respond to my question.
