I am considering buying either an 'Arlo Pro system with 4 cameras' or an 'Arlo Pro system with 2 cameras plus 2 Arlo Baby Units'. I plan to use two cameras for security and 2 cameras as baby/child monitors.

Once set up, I want to be able to see a continuous live stream from all 4 cameras (or at least live stream and audio from the 2 child monitors) on the screen of my iPad at one time, without having to press something in the middle of the night to make this occur. Is this possible? (Obviously I would change the settings on my iPad to make sure it doesn't go to sleep and I would leave it plugged in) I cant seem to confirm this by looking at all the info on the webiste or in this forum.

 

Thanks for any help you can provide.

No, it will not work the way you want. While the Baby will......the Pro won't.

 

The Arlo baby will continue to stream if the ipad is on, but the Pro cameras will time out at (IIRC) a max of 30 mins.

This is from battery concerns when designed for the Pro ( if acc left on ).

 

Also the Pro cams will not stream 24/7...they are "motion triggered then record" type of cameras
