Arlo Pro 3 iPhone 12, Notifications

Retired_Member — Wed, 08 Sep 2021 23:17:33 GMT

I have an iPhone 12 and I d get notifications of motion on the phone.

Is there any way to get a LOUDER sound notification when a camera is triggered.

Most of the time I see there was a notification after the fact, especially if I am in my truck, music playing, etc.

Would like to know if there is any way to get a louder sound like I use for getting a text, and not just when in the truck, anytime at all.

Have not found anything in phone settings. I do have sound notification turned on.

I have the same issue.. I use my system to alert me of any issues- if I have somebody breaking in, I can get to my store in under 5 minutes... but if my alerts/notifications aren't loud enough to wake me up, then it's pretty much failing me. Super frustrating.

I fixed it for me. My carrier, ATT does an email to text thing. Go to Mode, click on Base Station. Click pencil icon next to armed. Under rules, click on the pencil icon next to the Motion on Camera. Click box for Email alerts. Then enter the email address for your carrier for email to text. For ATT it is <PhoneNumber>@txt.att.net. Tested and I get a text alert I can hear!
