First there is no drop down for Arlo Secure on the list so I grabbed Arlo pro 2. If you currently use 2 locationson with the the old app. Do not update to new app.   It will not allow for 2 different locations.  You will have to subscribe to another account for second location.  Needless to say I'm not happy since I cannot undo the update.

This forum is aware of that.

 

However, there's no option not to update to the new app once you've been 'targeted'.

The new user interface (UI) does indeed support multiple locations without a second account. However, unlike the old UI, you're forced to buy a subscription if your account has more than 5 total legacy cameras. The old UI also supported this but the subscription wasn't enforced.

 

You can still set up a second account for the remote location using the new UI and share those cameras to your main account using Settings, People. As long as both accounts have 5 legacy cameras or fewer you still get the free 7 day plan for both.

Thank you for that response. I currently have one Arlo Secure account.  If I have 4 cameras at one location (one hub) and 8 cameras at another location 6 on one hub and 2 on another hub (same location). Will I need another Secure subscription?  All of this ran off one subscription prior to the update and I had no problem with geofencing.

Thank you

Unfortunately, yes.
