I haven't bought my Arlo Pro 2 system yet. I want to be able to quickly access the camera viewing my front door so I can choose to answer the doorbell or not. I use a pc desktop running Windows 10 but I also have access to an Android phone or an Android tablet. 

 

With the desktop pc, it seems that I would have to use a browser to access a Netgear website, log into my account and get to the camera view through that. I believe this process will take too long. Using an app on my phone or tablet, should I be able to access the view from the front door camera quickly or is it going to be basically the same steps as required for the desktop pc?

Hey @NASA_Dude,

 

You will need to download the Arlo app and login to the account to view the camera. You can also set notifications if the camera detects motion so you can view the video on your phone or web. You can read more about motion detection here: How does the motion detection feature work on my Arlo cameras?
