Request for Annual Schedule with Holiday

[arloサポート]

I always change the schedule manually for holiday every time (for Battery).
But I have to undo all schedule after holiday.

It's helpful if user will be able to register annual holiday in advance.

Here is an example for the procedure.
1. Register holiday for Year 2020
2. Add schedule for holiday (Fixed schedule for all holiday)
3. Priority for holiday schedule is higher than normal schedule

   Holiday is depend on country, company and family.
   It's ideal if user will be able to register multiple years.

Thank you so much for your great products.
Sincerely,

Not sure what is meant by "priority", though perhaps something is lost in translation.  The holiday schedule would of course need to be used instead of the regular schedule on holidays.

FWIW, while I do see some value in more flexible scheduling, I think this particular would add quite a bit of complexity, especially when you factor in geofencing.

I'm very sorry for my translation.
You are correct. The holiday schedule needs to be used instead of the regular schedule on holidays.

The user will not use Geofencing Mode in holiday.
Please remove the factor in geofencing for this request.

The user works at general store with 11 cameras with 3 stations.
He always undo the schedules for each base stations after a long / short holidays.
We wish cameras also would have a holiday.

Thank you so much for looking into this idea.
Have a great weekend. God bless you.

I was just offering my own comments - I haven't changed your request (and I don't work for Arlo).  

Although you might assume that holiday should override geofencing, I'm sure that other people won't expect that.  While that might be often the case for a business, I think many home users would have a different expectation.  So I think Arlo would need to work out how everything fits together.

Dear StephenB,

We wish Arlo will consider the ideal schedule for home users.

Hi the Arlo community,

I am new here, but have both a business AND home account and was wondering if there was way to set "public holiday dates" into the scheduled calendar function so the systems can either remain on or off depending on the type of holiday (i.e if public holiday - say christmas day, if at home, the schedule would deactivate (rather than you having to receive a notification and then having to manually activate /deactivate the system depending on the situation)

This would be a great idea not only for businesses but also home users and given the monthly pricing for various subscriptions I would expect this to be able to be achieved..

Please advise if anyone has any suggestions etc on how to acheive this.  (Arlo and or the Community)

Thanks in advance
