You create a second Arlo account for that phone.  Then you share access to the cameras from the main account, using the "friend" access feature.  You don't attempt to onboard the cameras again.

The process works better when you click on the "Create Account" link in the invite email on a PC.  The PC will open the browser to my.arlo.com.  If the account already exists, you just log into it.  If it doesn't exist, then you create it.
