How do I adjust Arlo video recording length?

You can personalize your Arlo cameras to record videos from approximately 10 to 120 seconds long. On Arlo Pro Wire-Free, Arlo Q, and Arlo Q Plus cameras, you can also set your camera to record until motion stops, up to 300 seconds (5 minutes). 

To adjust Arlo video recording length:

1. Launch the Arlo app or log in to your Arlo account at arlo.netgear.com.
2. Tap or click Mode.
3. Select the base station or camera that you want to adjust.
4. Tap the pencil icon or click > next to the mode for which you want to edit recording length.
   Note: You cannot adjust recording length for Disarmed or Schedule modes, only for active modes such as Armed.
5. Tap the pencil icon or click > next to the rule that you want to edit.
   If the mode only has one rule, it is preselected.
6. Tap the pencil icon or click > next to Record Video.
   Note: If Record Video is not selected, you cannot edit recording length.
7. Select Record until activity stops (up to 300 sec) or select Record for a fixed length of time and move the slider to your preferred recording length.
8. Tap < Edit Rule or click Back.
9. Tap Done or click Save.
   Your recording length is updated.

Thank you for providing those key details! (Can't change the setting if not in armed mode!) I saw previous solutions that said nothing about that - I was trying to edit while in Schedule mode. Also can't change it if the system detects motion. I know it's a pain for seasoned users, but good tech supports provides those little known details for those of us just getting started. I have to say I'm impressed with the Community support as I've always found the answers I need -- even if I may need to find a couple of solutions in order to find one with all the details!
