Hi, would it be possible to get a software update where the Arlo Pro 3 cameras can use the Activity Zone Functionality without a paid subscription nor having to connect to AC power? 

This could attract more clients to Arlo, and improve existing customers' satisfaction.

    Activity zone processing does take additional power, so battery life would drop.

     

    I agree it would be nice to have this.

You are right, but i guess the battery life drops the same with the paid subscription, which allows the use of the activity zone with battery , isn't it? 👍

No.  With a subscription, the activity zones are processed in the Arlo Cloud, not the camera.
