Q: QuestionI have an indoor Arlo Q and one of its great features is "Free Cloud StorageDon't pay for cloud storage you don't need. No subscriptions necessary. Arlo Basic plan comes with rolling 7-day cloud recordings." Does this doorbell have the same 7 day free ?
Asked by LoveMyArloQ.
- A:Answer I was waiting for this new Arlo VIDEO Doorbell to be anounced. The Indoor Arlo Q has Free Cloud Storage! But there is NO Free Cloud Storage with this new VIDEO Doorbell after the 30 day trial!! This is ridiculous. I will NOT be keeping this product, but will purchase the Nest Video Doorbell instead.

Q: QuestionIs the Arlo Video Doorbell compatible with Arlo Pro 2 Base Station?
Asked by GoProGuy.
- A:Answer No, the Video Doorbell does not need a base station as it connects directly to your 2.4Ghz home WiFi network.
Answered by ArloTeam
Q: Questionis this smart doorbell compatible with the Arlo base station to record videos?
Asked by Rar1020.
- A:Answer The video doorbell was added to my Arlo Pro 2 base station as a viewing camera only without problem. This video doorbell is a stand alone system for video recoding and playback. YOU MUST PAY AN ADDITIONAL MONTHLY FEE to record/playback video from the doorbell no matter what Arlo system you have. Arlo designed this doorbell to be a monthly fee cash grab.

Q: QuestionCan the calling feature be used on two different phone numbers? I can access as primary, but my wife (as a shared Arlo device) does not get a phone call when the bell is rung.
Asked by Kudos.
- A:Answer It took a couple hours for the shared devices/cell phones to also be able to take the video phone call when bell is rung. Works like a charm! Awesome Doorbell Camera & Awesome Deal!

Q: QuestionI have my Arlo Videodoorbell scheduled for alerts from 7am - 11pm. I am wondering if it will still detect and record video from 11pm - 7am if there is activity, but not send an alert. I still want to see what goes on at night around my door 24/7
Asked by Hougi.
- A:Answer No. The schedule "arms" and "disarms" the doorbell. When it is disarmed, it is effectively "off" and won't detect and record. However, you could silence your phone and/or your doorbell chime during those hours, leave the doorbell armed at all times, and it will record any activity. Actually, I might have to start silencing my phone at night because a neighbor's cat keeps coming up to our front door at the wee hours of the morning and setting off my phone alert.
