It’s a goal of Arlo’s to make as many devices compatible with these integrations as we can but we don’t have an announcement to make for this compatibility at this time. Keep an eye here on the community and arlo.com for announcements and updates.

I would certainly hope this is coming very soon. This device is quite expensive and having homekit support seems like a natural stop. I also hope this is done without the need to purchase a separate hub

I made the mistake of buying 3 of these doorbells (AVD2001) because I read this post from you (AVD2001 HomeKit Support).

If ARLO don't have plans to support HomeKit, they should've stated clearly. In my personal case, if this thing will not have HomeKit support, I don't want them, and I wouldn't buy them. Who's going to reimburse me? I feel like I literally threw away $600 in these 3 doorbells.

agreed. Arlo have shown their intention to add HomeKit support. It would be good to have a clearer timeline given that many of us have purchased them based oaths promise.

Agree, the lack of a chime is also annoying.
