Hi
Can I use the arlo essential as the video source for the audio doorbell? So when I get a call from audio doorbell, I see also the video from the essential camera. I know it works with pro and ultra.
Maybe when I add the essential to the smart hub?
Thanks!

I don't have an audio doorbell installed to check for sure but I believe you can use a setting in the doorbell settings to pair a camera with the doorbell. You can also just use the camera separately - there were problems earlier with using the doorbell to trigger a camera which may well be fixed now.

 

If you're referring to using it like the video doorbells where a call on your phone includes a video, that's not possible since it's a funnction of the camera built into the video doorbells.
