A:Answeryes it records in color, but no sound. Dont waste your money the recordings are sporadic at best, difficult to adjust, and easy for hackers to disable your system. They got about 10k of product from me with not ONE recording durring the robbery, when I needed it.
A:AnswerNot in a "out of the box" way that is sold by Netgear. You could do a DIY type setup using something like IFTTT (If This, Then That). https://ifttt.com/arlo
A:AnswerYes you can. I did this with my front door camera. There is a pan and zoom in the options to help you do this as well as motion detection sensitivity. My issue was the camera was catching my neighbors driveway a bit. Kept getting alerts every time they went up or down the drive with their car. The pan and zoom let me cut off the sliver of the drive in the cameras view without having to adjust the camera physically again.
A:AnswerYes you can extend recording time beyond the 10 second default. I changed to 20 seconds which seems to work well. When watching live you can record or take a picture by pressing the appropriate button. By default it does not record but uses the picture as the last viewed picture on your camera reference screen.
A:AnswerYes for sure. You can set it for both email and a notification on your phone. the app doesn't need to be open. It will send you a tone of your choice or email or both.
A:AnswerThe Arlo doesn't have the ability to record to external storage but they just announced an Arlo Pro that has this feature along with rechargeable battery, siren and ability to communicate through the camera.
A:AnswerYou cannot physically move the camera from the app itself. You can "pan/tilt/zoom" the image as you see it on the app (similar to zooming an image on your camera).
A:AnswerThere is an app for the iPad and iPhone. I do not know if there is an app yet for android or not. It is extremely easy to set up with your router. You should not have any problem whatsoever.
A:AnswerI have had the system for 3 months and am on the same batteries doing optimized video and 20 second recordings when motion is detected. They claim to last 4 months. They hold 4 batteries and are not expensive. I found 12 replacement batteries on Amazon for 25 bucks. No they cannot be hard wired. This is strictly a wireless battery powered system.
A:AnswerI have not tried them in that heat but they have survived very cold conditions completely covered with snow and kept on ticking during and after the snow melted away. I only wished they came with automatic lens wipers to clear the snow away when it sticks and covers the lens.
