Smart Hub subscription

[nhudon]

Hi,

I have 3 Essential Spotlight cameras and my cloud subscription is ending soon.

If I buy a Smart Hub 4540 to record videos on a USB stick, do I need a subscription plan or anything else like that ?

Thanks.

Without a subscription, all you can do is record locally. I would verify that this works properly before your trial ends to see if that works for you.

And without a subscription, does the Arlo Secure app will still working and able to see cameras live stream and view what was recorded locally ?

Yes, The lack of subscription basically just means no cloud recordings (not exactly true but close).
