Will the system notify the user.......................... ....upon movement? Say I'm traveling on business and I'm using the cameras to watch my home including the front door and UPS/FEDEX leaves me a package. The movement detection should capture the activity, but can the system be set up to notify me automatically that the activity occurred or do I have to manually review the photo captures??????

*Speaking from iPhone* Yes, the Arlo app will automatically notifies you as soon as there is motion detected. The cameras begin recording (if you set them that way). You can set up multiple devices to receive the alerts too. You can get the through notifications and/or emails. Once you open the app, you can go directly to the camera to see realtime while it's still recording and go back once it's done recording and watch what triggered the motion. There is no delay with the notifications and they are also actionable. When you swipe open the notification, it automatically opens the Arlo app. Those notifications are also pushed to my Pebble smart watch.

The answer is yes. You can set the system up to email you that the camera has been triggered. You can either watch that video or hit live feed to watch in real time. I will say, it is a few seconds to minutes behind, but not so much that it would effect much.

You will automatically get a push notification to your android or IOS phone per your settings. The cameras can be named as well, so you'll know which camera captured the movement.

you can set it up so it records when motion is detected. also, you can set up to receive alerts and/or email with link to the video (and download it). you can also define the motion sensor sensitivity.

Yes. It's ideal for that kind of thing, which doesn't eat batteries unless you get a lot of deliveries daily.
