Arlo Essential XL Spotlight Camera (VMC2032) - Videos Being Saved

[AviSch]

I have a hub with multiple cameras connected to it, and videos are saved for 7 days.  One of my cameras died and I've replaced it with the Arlo Essential XL Spotlight Camera.  Do you know if the new Arlo Essential XL Spotlight Camera I've added to the hub will also have its videos saved for 7 days?  Many thanks.

Arlo stopped providing 7-day free cloud storage on new camera models back in 2018 when they introduced the Ultra.

The Essential will require a subscription to get cloud storage.  You'll get 30 days of retention, not just 7.
