About a week ago, Arlo app started asking for my password EVERY-TIME I looked at it. Is this a feature or bug?
If it’s a feature and you need feedback.
I HATE this feature. <———- feedback.

Where do you see this? A browser? An app?
About a week ago Arlo forced "2FA" on us. Maybe this is what you are seeing.
What is two-step verification and how do I set it up?
Sadly, the latest implementation of 2FA is far from perfect. It does not play nicely with browsers on a PC. It is supposed to remember the device for a week or so. In reality it sometimes forgets after a day or two. And you have to do it on every browser you run, rather than the PC itself.

Thanks for the reply
This happens with both browser and app. I use phone and iPad only.
I figured it was a 2 step verification annoyance.
Constantly asking for Touch ID, and/or password
Am I tortured by this security “feature” forever? Can I turn it off?

Probably.
You are not alone in wanting to turn it off.

I’ve been asked to make trusted several times and I’ve said yes. It’s like everything related to logging in is wiped out when I close the app.

Is it the phone or the Arlo app that demands attention?
Mine demands a fingerprint whenever pick it up. Likewise the app.
