Disable Mode Change Notification 2026

[jm28]

I set a custom schedule for 10pm to 6am arm devices. I would expect to only receive notifications of movements on those devices during those times. Instead, at 10pm I receive YOUR CAMERAS ARE ON and then at 6am YOUR CAMERAS ARE OFF. Then at 10pm YOUR CAMERAS ARE ON. Then at 6am YOUR CAMERAS ARE OFF. (You know, just like you wanted). Please disable this unnecessary alert that keeps us from focusing on actual important alerts.

@Sithgear posted a workaround on a different thread.

On iPhones, you can set up Focus to silence the Arlo App.  Then schedule Focus to start one minute before the mode change, and end one minute after the mode change.  You can something similar with "Do Not Disturb" on Android.

Obviously just a workaround, but it does silence the unwanted notifications with minimal security impact.

The complaint is understood and the solution is part of a larger grouping of changes that will be coming in a future update. I don't have an estimation at this time for when those changes will be available, but more control over push notifications in general will be part of that update.

We do  have this in as a feature request. And the team is currently looking into it. Once there is an update I will let the community know.

I don't understand why there always needs to be a workaround with Arlo, and nothing straightforward. There is a workaround for connecting Pro 2 cameras. There is a workaround for getting the time stamp on shared videos. There is a workaround for doing this and doing that.

I agree they are needed way too often, and that Arlo can be very slow to fix things.

But If there is a workaround for a known problem, I will point it out.

It's not a feature request it's a bug fix. It didn't happen before and no one in their right mind would have asked for it.
