Syncing with GoGoGate

I have a device called GoGoGate it allows me to open & close my garage door through any of my devices. There is an option to sync a camera with the GoGoGate so whenever you open the GoGoGate app the camera will start up and the live video will be on in the background. To sync a camera it asks you to select your IP-CAM, there are netgear cameras there to choose from but not netgear arlo. I have been led to believe that this is not possible to do with arlo.

 

One of the deciding factors that swayed me to buy the arlo model was the option to sync with third party products like this. I believe that I was led to believe that this was going to be possible. I remember reading that arlo was going to have a similar option with the LIFX smart bulbs ie the bulbs could be synced to turn on when ever the cameras detect motion but if you actually speak to arlo tech support they say that this is only a possible future plan. 

 

I believe that I have been misled & on the LIFX option they recently did an update that did not include the arlo option. 

 

Netgear when are these selling points actually going to come online ?

Can Arlo and Gogogate be connected? Gogogate connects to all IP cameras.....why not with Arlo cameras?

 

Not really rocket science? 🙂

 

The idea is to use the camera image on Gogogate app so we can see gate opening and closing remotelly.
