Arlo Essential Door bell wire-free support base station

[PaulsAcct]

When will this doorbell camera support the base station? It says coming soon on the site but when?

Where are you looking?  It is already compatible with the VMB4000 base. https://kb.arlo.com/000062284/Arlo-SmartHub-and-Base-Station-Compatibility

Arlo added this support in December 2021.  https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo-Video-Doorbell-Wire-Free/AVD2001-Won-t-discover-in-App/m-p/184308...

I'm looking here: https://www.arlo.com/en-us/compare?cgid=doorbell

So then if it's compatible with the base station I can get 7 days of recordings by default without the Arlo subscription?

@JamesC: - looks like this needs to be fixed.

No.  Old cameras included 7 days of free cloud recording as part of the sale - not the base stations.

Arlo stopped offering this on the newer cameras (and video doorbells) starting with the Ultra in 2018.

StephenB,

I've requested an update for the arlo.com comparison tool.

Thanks,

JamesC
