Do I have to pay a monthly fee? null

Only if you want enhanced services and longer storage

No, Arlo cameras do not require a subscription to access basic features such as live streaming and motion or audio notifications. However, subscribing unlocks additional features, including 60-day Video History, Advanced Object Detection, Activity Zones, 24/7 Emergency Response, and more.

No, you don’t have to pay a monthly fee to use your Arlo cameras. You can view the live feed, receive motion alerts, and store recordings locally if you use a base station with local storage or a compatible microSD card. However, if you want access to cloud storage, smart notifications (like detecting people, packages, or animals), and longer video history, Arlo offers optional subscription plans like Arlo Secure starting at a few dollars per month. Totally optional, but really useful if you want extra features.
