Originally, they were awesome

Now there’s total junk can I get anything to upload and always having trouble?

Why do I pay monthly fee and no services

I noticed in my checking I was paying monthly dues while Arlo was asking me to pay for service services and not receiving anything
Daaa…Daaa…

Used to be good, now terrible

Zero confidence. The previous app was easy and clear, new update has added multiple tabs, functionality hidden within random label. Impossible to get confidence in whether you have it set up right. Help function is terrible. Tag line is “security simplified” but they have created the most overworked, complicated app to manage this. Do not use.

App Features Disappearing

Don’t buy Arlo cameras. The latest is that Arlo blocked the Feed settings on the app. Used to work just fine. Now feed features are behind a paywall. Lousy company. Disabling features one-by-one and hiding them behind an incredibly expensive paywall.
