Idea - Timed Disable

Felix-DC — Sat, 31 Jul 2021 16:52:11 GMT

When I go onto the front or back porch or have guests over, I don’t want my cameras to be recording or notifying me of activity and draining batteries. So, I just manually disarm, but then I have to remember to arm cameras once guests leave. I wish there was a timed disarm all devices option (I.e. disarm for X hours). That would give me so much peace of mind. Thoughts?

You posted this in the wrong section. There's a separate section for ideas, and if you'd searched, you'd have realised that this idea had been posted before. So, why don't you search for that post and add your support there.

@Felix-DC You can submit this idea in the "Arlo Idea Exchange" forum here. It is a good idea and other have also suggested it. I would like to see it also.

Yes, it looks like it was suggested five years ago and has a good deal of support. Surprised nothing has been done.
