You already have an option to create trigger zones, why not add one to create 'ignore zones'. I have one tree outside our house that triggers the camera constantly in the wind. the only way to stop it making 30+ recordings in a day is to turn the sensitivity down but then I miss actual events. It would be good to just highlight the tree and say ignore this thing... ... View more

There needs to be a simple wireless bridge for the Arlo camera system short of having to upgrade to the premium plan and adding more base stations. I have a modest system with 5 camera, but a two story house, that no amount of relocating of the base station resolves the poor signal to one or more cameras. A simple bridge like Sonos makes for their wireless home music system would be a perfect fit. I see that a bridge is made for the Arlo Security light system, so not sure why one is not available for the camera system.  ... View more

Hi,   Id like to suggest the posibility of setting alert zones which match the shape of the area you are trying to cover. For example, a trapezoid shaped alert zone would better match a path or driveway as it tapers off into the distance without having to make-do using rectangles and squares which overlap into other areas. Also, it may be useful to have alerts based on which alert zones are triggered. So in this case, you may have footage recorded of a postman entering your back garden to drop off a parcel but be alerted if he enters an alert zone covering your back door etc.   Cheers! ...

Add a feature that allows us to see what sensitivity levels are being hit when recordings take place. I am forever struggling to adjust the sinsitivity of the camers on the outside of my house. When a recording is made it wouldbe good to know what sinsitivty % was hit so I can tell what level a tree moving in the wind vs a car driving down the street vs a person walking along th epath is and fine tune it. I know I can sort of do this in the motion detection test but I then have to be outside where I can see the blue led and wait for these actions to occur, very hard to reproduce! Would be good to see the actual % number stored alongside the recording that was made, and even better the realtime percentage during the whole recording length. I regularly get a recording of someone pulling up in a car but once they stop and the person gets out the recording stops. So obviously I need to up the setting to get that person walking but by how much? Trial and error is infuriating.. ... View more

Because of Arlo's excellent video quality and excellent field of view I am able to see most of a large room/outdoor area with one camera. Unfortunately this tends to minimize the effectiveness of the motion detection as the camera tends to be more centrally located and so it does not detect something/someone until it is halfway or more across the room/area if it detects it at all.  This leaves users with the undesirable options of either compromising their camera placement to accomodate motion detection or using an entire camera exclusively as a motion detector with little to no useful function as a camera. This latter scenario is a situation for which the camera is over-qualified and overpriced.  A separate motion sensor that would trigger the camera to start recording when someone enters the room/access point would alleviate this issue. It could also help with the issue that myself and others  are having with lag in recording start time. The sensor could be placed further out from the camera when necessary so that it could trigger the camera to start recording earlier, accounting for the lag time and recording what users actually wanted recorded.   An additional sensor would not be something that would be required of all cameras and placements, but it would be useful for specific scenarios and even having two sensors at opposite inds of a room/area triggering one camera could be a useful setup. As it is though, it is relatively cost prohibitive to expand your system to do this as the cameras are the only sensor option and cost too much to be wasted on being merely a sensor. Additinally these "wasted" cameras eat into your allotment under the current subscription you have and could create additional cost to the user for an upgraded subscription. As it is, I am hesitant to expand my system (currently at 4 cameras), even though I would like to have greater coverage, because of the up front cost of the cameras not being used to their full potential combined with the monthly cost of the upgraded subscription. I would be far more willing to expand my system and upgrade my subscription if there were external sensors that would allow me to use my system effeciently and effectively like I want to without the inflated up front cost.     I could see how this could be achieved either through hardware development of sensors exclusively for Arlo or through software development of integration with already established systems which perform comlementary functions. With either one, if the price is right I'm in, if it stays as it is my expansion is stuck. ... View more

If there were a way for Arl to engineer the cameras to act as repeaters for one anothers signals to the base station the "range" away from the base station could be extended.  That is, by using camera 1 (closest to the base station) to work in concert with camera 2 (next one out from camera 1 in terms of distance) and then to camera 3 (furthest out) could be working in concert with camera 2 and then camera 1, the total distance from the base station could be much further.  So let's say you needed to cover a long driveway distance from your home out to the driveway entrance you could accomplish this by the closer cameras relaying the signal from the cameras further out.   Thanks for listening....users of a product give input to make the future products even better.     ...

I appreciate that internally there has been a lot of work on the Arlo app redesign, unfortunately none of your developers appear to actually use Arlo themselves, not listen the the feedback from the community forums when everything breaks I would suggest a you all install a minimum of 5 camera wireless system at your homes and then see how you like using your app to secure your home - see how unfriendly and anti consumer you guys have made it The battery warnings don’t work, and now I have to spend about 10 minutes every day managing my cameras compared to a previous 30 second check every couple of days - this is NOT smart technology anymore this is manual old fashioned technology that none of us bought The product has been seriously degraded by these design decisions Please come back to us after you have used the systems in your own homes for a week or more and advise exactly why these decisions are better Further development of your apps should not be undertaken by employees who do not currently have the systems installed at their own homes so that decisions like the recent redesign do not happen again Regards A VERY UNHAPPY ARLO CONSUMER ...

It would be ideal to have a hidden button to turn all cameras live. Especially when different notifications come at once. Different nofications came on my phone from all my cameras, a group of deer were around my home. I had to hit cameras one by one. It takes time do it, when you’re done; if it’s a real emergency, then too late. The all cameras button can be optional, settings should have an option to add the button on the main page. Also the button should be hidden where the alarm is hidden.. ... View more

Would it be possible possible in the future to have a community feature on app so near by neighbors can post stuff to keep everyone informed or be aware of things happening in the neighborhood. The company Ring (door bell) has this feature and find a lot of people love it.

Lets get the app updated so the Alexa can speak the Alro's motion detection alerts. I appreciate the phone notifications, BUT if I'm in my home walking around I normally don't have my phone on me and would like to be vocally notified if there's motion detected around the outside of my home without having to go through lengthy IT "hacks" to get Alexa to vocalize the detection. I believe it would be a beneficial and a great way to upsell your system. Hoping this gets added soon  ... View more

I want to be able to have a relatively high threshold before a motion triggers a recording, to reduce false positives. But once a recording starts, I want the sensitivity to be high so it continues to record when the subject is only moving a little bit.   For example, someone walking into view of the camera registers as a high motion event and triggers a recording. But then they stop somewhere (perhaps to look into my window?) and are not moving enough for the motion sensitivity to count it as motion. The recording stops while they're still in view of the camera, which is bad. I don't want the clip to stop just because they stopped walking. If they're still moving at all (head, arms, etc) then I want the clip to continue. The motion sensitivity needs to be higher during the recording - separate from the initial trigger sensitivity. ...

It would be nice to have an optional warning time before sounding the alarm, similar to the operation of a regular house alarm. That way if you walk inside your house with groceries, or downstairs in the morning with arlo's siren armed you won't instantly be blasted with your alarm sound. This can be taken one step further by allowing the user to select whether the alarm will sound regardless unless it's disabled by the user, or whether it will act as a warning and if motion stops the alarm won't trigger. ...
