    Need the chime unless you are going to be next to your phone at all times. I like it, but I wish the volume can be lowered more since I'm in an apartment.

    Wouldn’t connect through the app. Reached out I Arlo and they tried to troubleshoot and sent me a replacement. The replacement wouldn’t work either. I still like the ARLO camera system but this new chime or the app is broken.

    Horrible product. I bought this item to go with my doorbell camera but couldn’t get it to connect to my internet. We tried for 3 hours on two different days. Your can’t get a phone number to reach a human and emailing take about 2 day for them to respond. I returned it and bought the Amazon Alexa for my chime instead.
