This question was asked about the related product: Arlo - Essential 4-Camera Outdoor Wireless 2K Security Camera (2nd Generation) with Yard Sign - White
- Answer The number of cameras supported on your Arlo account is unlimited with or without an Arlo Secure plan. While you may add an unlimited number of cameras to your Arlo account, you must also meet minimum requirements with bandwidth use measured on a per-camera basis. You can live stream up to fifteen (15) Arlo cameras at the same time on the Arlo Secure App or five (5) on my.arlo.com, depending on your system setup.
