Have 5 camera system with VMB4000 base station.  Would like to add 6th camera to home exterior. Thinking of adding Essentials Wireless - WIFI camera. Would like to know how I view activity from the 6th (WIFI) camera on my android phone compared to the 5 existing cameras.  Currently,  I see activity from all 5 existing cameras on one screen on my phone.

You'd just add the Essentials to your existing Arlo Account.  You'd then see it on the same screen(s) as your existing cameras.

 

It willl require a subscription for cloud storage, so you'd need to pay for that after the 3-month trial expires.  The Pro/Pro 2 cameras came with 7-day cloud storage, but none of the newer cameras have that.
