I would recommend this to a friend Arlo spotlight
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this essential spotlight to add to my existing four Arlo pro three cameras . I’m impressed with the camera operations and the smart Arlo function that will tell you whether it’s animal, person or vehicle. I like that it gives you notifications and so many different aspects and bells and whistle’s. I would recommend this to a friend.

Ok, but does not stay connected
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Although the picture is good, I have connectivity problems with is camera. It was okay initially, but after 3 months, it is offline or unable to connect 1/3 of the time. I have removed and added it twice, but that only helps for a few days. My Arlo Pro 2 cameras are much more reliable.

Does not work after subscription period ends
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I received the camera in the summer and it has worked well until the subscription period ended. Now I can no longer access any previous recordings and the camera only gives me notifications for motion. This defeats the purpose of installing security cameras. Beware of purchasing this if you don’t want to pay a monthly fee of 20 dollars.

I would recommend this to a friend Additional subscription payment required.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It only includes a three-month subscription plan, and after three months, you have to pay a subscription of 24.99 per month to view the record video, but these are not found in the description, or it is displayed in some hidden places.
