Comes with free 30 day Arlo Secure Trial. After that the basic Subscription package is $4.99/month (or $4.14/month if you pay annually) for the basic plan. You have access to videos stored on the Arlo cloud for 30 days. This was the best deal I could find of all the other brands (Ring, Blink, Google Nest, etc.) & app / doorbell / videos still work great on my phone. Nearly at the end of my 30 day trial & will definitely subscribe when it ends.
Do wait till the last day of your 30 day trial to sign up for your subscription because they start billing you on the day you sign up & not on the last day of your free trial. I learned that the hard way, had to call Arlo support to get them to cancel my early sign up. Had to wait a bit for customer rep to get a higher up to cancel it but it all worked out & they were nice enough. So now I can wait till the last day of my trial to re-sign up for the subscription.
It works well with the app, easy to change the batteries, great picture quality. It’s a really good doorbell camera.
Very happy with the upgraded video. It does make a positive difference.
Pros:
* Good Price when on sale for $79
* Decent video quality
* Night vision (only in black in white) works well if the IR light does not reflect off an object close to the camera lens.
* Motion alert (only motion) will send to Smartthings to be able to trigger lights (via a web connection)
* Will ring your wired doorbell
* Announces on Google Nests, however there is a delay after the doorbell rings
* Allows pre canned announcements that the user on the app can send while in a call after the doorbell is pressed.
* Allows someone to leave a message after ringing the doorbell
Cons:
* Plan on spending hours to work with customer service. I found the phone number works best during the day. You must look to find the number.
* Very long delay, about 13 seconds to get notification on your phone after the doorbell is pressed, and 8 to 14 seconds when trying to talk to someone at your door when they ring the doorbell. That is a 16 to 28 second round trip wait to ask a question. I have gigabit internet and a dedicated wireless router for just the one camera so it is not a bandwidth issue on my side. Customer service told me that they have a typical delay of 5 seconds.
* Audio is choppy and drops out often, even with the built-in messages.
* Motion sensor only works for the bottom half of the screen. If you aim the camera down to see the step in front of your door, it may not pick up anything from the sidewalk as people enter
* No prerecording of what happened before the motion sensor triggers (when it triggers)
* Masking of the area you want to record does not work properly. Customer service told me to turn it off to ensure I get more motion sensing.
* No way to turn off black and white video at night, even when you have motion lights that turn on.
* Light and the internal IR light will cause bad glares across the video if reflected into the camera lens
* No way to start recording from Smartthings, even though they have a "Record" input.
* No way to turn certain types of alarm notifications on / off for different times of the day to the app while maintain motions sensors and recording.
* Android app has some issues such as no way to turn on / off night vision light. You must log in to a web-based control to turn on / off
* No direct connection to Smartthings, must rely on the internet and link your account.
* Smartthings only gets motion alerts from Arlo, it cannot receive alerts for people, vehicles, packages, animals, etc.
* Can not record locally with an IP based recorder or software like Blue Iris
* Must pay a monthly fee to be able to record.
* Must pay a higher monthly fee if you want to add another camera to use as a motion sensor so the doorbell will record when someone comes down the sidewalk towards the door.
* The Android app needs to be fixed. Originally when I got the camera I could only use iOS (Apple) phone to connect the camera, they have since fixed that, however other features still do not work as of 9 December 2022
Overall, I got this camera to use to integrate with Smarthings, to record on certain events and THIS DOES NOT WORK correctly with Smartthings. You must get other Arlo cameras to trigger the other Arlo cameras to record. You cannot use routines or existing Smartthings sensors to trigger a recording. The motion sensor on the camera is not sensitive enough to cover my sidewalk and driveway, and only the bottom half of the screen is what can be used to sense motion.
