Can someone please help me get Geofencing to work?

alreadyinuse — Mon, 07 Apr 2025 19:51:43 GMT

I thought that I had it working but then it started either not engaging when I left or most often not disengaging when I came home again. I have tried and tried and tried everything I can think of but this stupid app is so counterintuitive that nothing makes sense to me. Of course it would help if it was consistently working or not working but this back and forth is ridiculous and now I am back to having made so many changes I don't know where I am.

Anyone have any advice?

Thanks

"Arrive" stopped working reliably for me. Enabling it in both Arm Home and Arm Away resolved it in my case - clearly a bug, since it only needs to run when the system is in Arm Away mode. Arlo is aware.

(If "Arrive" changes the mode to Standby, then instead try enabling it in both Arm Away and Standby).

I've been trying, to get it to work, for two years. I gave up and just do the away and home manually. I'm giving up on Arlo and switching yo Simplisafe.
