There appears to be a problem...or some problems...with geofencing post Arlo app V2.6.0 and through at least V2.6.3.  I have not yet tried this on iOS version 12.1.1. Which I installed today, to see if there is any change in behavior.

 

Personally, geofencing worked half-right for me on V2.6.3 and iOS 12.1 (12.1.1 is TBD).  If my wife and I are both away or both home, it works as expected.  If one of us is at home and one of us is away or at another location which also has Arlo’s owned by us and using geofencing, the cameras are armed at both locations.  They should be disarmed with either of us on site, but they only disarm when both of us are on site.  I also had difficulty at one point, getting Arlo to detect the location status  of my wife’s device.
