I don't have a subscription to Arlo Secure so currently the video recordings from my Arlo Pro-4 cameras are stored locally on the SmartHub. I know there is an option to link my Arlo cameras with the Google Home app (I also have the Arlo app). What would be the advantages of linking the cameras with the Google Home app? Would I be able to review my video recordings that are saved locally on the SmartHub from the Google Home app? And if this is possible, can I omit the need to set up port forwarding on the Arlo app?
