No.  It can be triggered to record by motion, or by sound.  Or you can make a manual recording.

 

Do you have a subscription for the camera?  Cloud recording requires an Arlo Secure Subscription.

Assuming the camera is in either a trial subscription or a paid subscription:

 

Try live-streaming the camera, and see if you can make a manual recording.  There should be a recording icon when you touch the camera in the app (it looks like a target).

 

Also, check that the camera is armed.
