    Batteries Did Not Last A Year

    I have both Arlo Pro 4 and 5s cameras, and within the last few months, every single one of them started experience extreme battery depletion within a week! I used to get anywhere from 1.5 to 2 months on a single charge. 3 cameras are only 1 year old; 3 are 1.5 years old, 3 are about 2 years old. My theory is a firmware update was pushed and is causing this problem. Its the only reasonable explanation that all 9 cameras of different ages would suddenly not last a week! At $50 each, its asking lot to have to already replace 9 batteries. Even if I did, I suspect it won't fix the problem. Besides this problem, the app is basically basic. With the money I'm paying for the subscription service, the app should have a lot more capabilities, especially more automation than offered currently.

    Added newest model to our Arlo network. With the addition, was an update to the software. So far, so good. New software has new interface, and much less connection issues.

    Don't - unless you want to pay for subscription

    The Arlo system is useless if you don't want to continue paying a subscription year after year. You cannot access any video recordings, which is the whole point of a security system! I also own a previous gen Arlo with a base station and it works well. Arlo completely messed this up in order to get more money through the subscription. If you don't mind paying $150/year, then the camera quality and features are very good.

    When the cameras work, they work great. One of the 3 cameras had a defective Night Mode that kept switching the IR off and on rapidly and continuously. Arlo tech support initially kept throwing FAQ responses to me. When I was finally able to send them a video of what the camera was doing, they escalated my case to the next tier. All that tier did was send me request after request for updates on my email account; they kept telling me it was an incorrect email address. They wouldn't help me until I told them I was returning the cameras for a refund. All of a sudden my email account was now "active" but my cameras were offline. Well yeah, I already boxed them up for the return. They wasted many hours of my time. It felt like they just wanted to get rid of me. Well, they succeeded.

    Forced subscription

    I bought this this camera so I can view it on my phone or tablet. I have two other cameras that I do so. But this camera requires a subscription to do so. They give you a trial of seeing your videos until you can't return the camera. Then you are no longer able to view your videos or return the camera. Trying to force you to buy a subscription. This company was not like that before. I will never buy from this company ever again. One word I would describe them is DECEPTIVE.
