Rotate image 90 degrees

I've got my Arlo focused on the walkway leading up to my house which is longer than it is wide. Arlo currently allowd me to rotate the image 180 degrees so I can mount it upside down, A 90 degree rotation would let me turn the camera on its side and have more vertical resolution where I need it.

I think the reason is that so they can continue to sell ceiling and wall mounting and so on, these would become pretty useless with 90 degree feature...

I totally agree with the above user comments.  How is this feature not available and not adressed since reporting it in 2015!!!?  We as customers/users like bells and whistles, but this should have been a basic/fundamental requirement for monitoring in both portrait and landscape modes.  I purchased this system not even questioning landscape mode capability. For the amount of money spent ($600+), I'm extremely disappointed, and feel somewhat slighted...because I cannot find this shortcoming advertised anywhere.  This also renders the system useless to me.

ImBenDood,

 

This idea is currently being considered for future implementation.

 

When the status progresses, an update to this thread will be made.

 

Thank you for your contribution,

Yes, 

Arlo team at the moment is too much involved in Arlo Baby development: any latest Arlo Release Note since months is ArloBaby related...

No time for poor Arlo Pro customers that spent a lot of money to have less features that 15$ cheap chinese cameras

 

Anyway... I'm still happy with my Arlo Pro. The product itself it's great, but support and improvements are stuck at early stages and this it's a pity...

 

But whatever...

amar0k,

 

The Arlo team is still working hard to deliver new features to all existing Arlo product lines. I encourage you to continue offering your support for new ideas by adding Kudos.

Sometimes you need tall, other times you need wide. Offering the choice with a 90-degree view would be a great improvement. Considering my layout, I'd probably buy a new camera for a taller view if that was offered.

I understand that Arlo team is working hard, but since 2015 no real answer to the 90° rotation. Where is the difficult? You know how to rotate 180°, so what is the problem with 90°?

Can you please tell us when can we finaly use this possibility?

Hi Arlo Community, just installed a 2 camera system and happy so far apart from monitoring a narrow side access passage. I agree that 90 degree roration would help enormously. Please add this request to those already mounting up at Arlo HQ. Best regards, MaxVW
