    @BeljicaPeak @ArloSmartHome Even better they still lie to their android users forcing them to turn on insecure permissions. I dropped Arlo completely after they doubled down on the permissions.

    @WSJ @nicnguyen Stupid decisions=bad business. And hello, you expected to get away with this with social media!? Not. Glad I don’t own them. Never will now. @ArloSmartHome

  • TheRealNWV
    Nickalas W. Venables (@TheRealNWV) reported

    In case you're wondering, yes @ArloSmartHome security cameras are currently down. The entire ******* network. So I'm not saying anyone *should* rob anyone, but it certainly would be a good time if you were the kind of person who'd do such a thing.

    @ArloSmartHome @ArloSmartHome why am I not allowed to talk to a live agent even though I bought your equipment and it’s not working??? I have to pay you again for a subscription before someone will talk to me, if anybody is considering Arlo, don’t buy it!

  • mariocirignani
    Mario (@mariocirignani) reported

    @ArloSmartHome I am in the middle of choosing a security camera system for my home and daughters home and I read about ARLO’s deceitful behavior. I don’t care that they changed their minds when confronted by bad press. Not buying ARLO. Can’t be trusted. Shameful. Somebody should be fired.

  • MerenessAlex
    Alex Mereness (@MerenessAlex) reported

    @ArloSmartHome I’ve spent well over $700 into this system, based on promises and claims made by you. It’s disappointing that you now choose to go back on said promises, I understand not supporting old hardware, but effectively bricking/paywalling the system unless more money is spent is trash.

    @ArloSmartHome what is going on with your all devices. They are going offline today for many users

    @ArloSmartHome After >1 year of problem free use, my Arlo Wire-Free Video Doorbell (ADV2001) stopped working & chime box makes loud humming noise. No online support for products w/o subscription (tried the chat function - did not work). HELP @ArloSmartHome

  • DylanStratton
    dylan (@DylanStratton) reported

    I’m ready to switch to a new camera system and get away from @ArloSmartHome. They’re killing old cameras and customer service is the worst. They only let me talk to robots. Any security camera suggestions???

  • ScottyWitte
    Scott 🌻 (@ScottyWitte) reported

    @ArloSmartHome It’s normal to be frequently, randomly logged out of the Arlo app. But now, this time, I’m unable to log back in. No reason or error given. I’m assuming the people that run this company don’t use their own products.

  • wrinkled_lemon
    🏎 (@wrinkled_lemon) reported

    @ArloSmartHome I will never trust your products again. If you can do this to earlier models, what's stopping you from EOL-ing current models a couple of years down the road? Why would I *upgrade* to new models when you can just pull the infrastructural support for it later?

    @ArloSmartHome might be one of the worst products and app I’ve ever used..

  • luisaggie
    Luis Ortiz (@luisaggie) reported

    @ArloSmartHome hi any support on trying to get the redeemable code to work? Currently have an EOL camera system, and we wanted to get our annual subscription, but keep getting error message when trying to suscribe to the annual multi camera plan.

    @ArloSmartHome Arlo we have a problem, I can no longer connect to a 2.4 ghz and now my floodlight camera is useless. Can you help?

  • missy49179801
    missy (@missy49179801) reported

    @ArloSmartHome please DM me about issue w a new phone being distrusted and unable to get help from Support for my Arlo Pro 4 iOS app lock out. You time out the app two step verification while I’m looking at email on the same device& it becomes an endless circle of frustration.

    @ArloSmartHome I have 300 archived videos that takes 3 taps to delete.. at this point it will take close to #onethousand tapes to delete archived videos.. your app interface is ****!!

    @ArloSmartHome I need cables to connect my solar panels to my cameras. Help? Thx

    Just learned that as of Jan 1, 2023 @ArloSmartHome is ******* all their customers and the equipment we have installed in going to end up in the trash.

  • wHENigEToFF
    Colin (@wHENigEToFF) reported

    So sick of @ArloSmartHome cams. Constant issues. I was sold on the features, but 2 out of 4 appear offline constantly; I'm lucky if a battery lasts 2 weeks on the optimized setting NOT the 3 or 6 months Arlo claims; my Apple TV sees them fine, but MY.Arlo sees them rebooting. FML

    @ArloSmartHome @TechHive Customer service is the worst, not worth it. Do not buy from this company.

    @ArloSmartHome would be cool if you fixed your geofencing. When the program says ‘all devices’ but activates when anyone leaves or comes. **** you. I hope you go bankrupt

  • InvizOne
    Geo 🇺🇸 🏳️‍🌈 🇺🇦 🦋 (@InvizOne) reported

    @ArloSmartHome Thanks, but it doesn’t help. It appeared plans, including LTE, were provided by Arlo & outside LTE not recommended. Conflicting cellular info has halted a Go2 purch a live agent could easily clarify. Seems bad social media is only way to get attention/answers to product Q’s.

  • learningxp
    LXP (https://spacekaren.sucks/learningxp) (@learningxp) reported

    @ArloSmartHome Trying to upgrade my EOL cameras. Credit card got charged the full amount twice. The CS chats were filled with canned answers and completely unhelpful. No idea if my order is good or not. It's been a while since I've had customer service this bad.

    @ArloSmartHome The absolute worst doorbell ever made! No support help, can even speak to a live person. Don’t wast your money!

  • AmericanMadeCPM
    AmericanMade (@AmericanMadeCPM) reported

    @ArloSmartHome What a difficult time I have had with any customer support from Arlo. It’s been terrible. 17x trying to update a firmware update with an existing camera. On the phone an hour. Had to buy a new camera. Absolutely terrible experience.

    @ArloSmartHome super disappointed got doorbell in December. Been looking for help back-and-forth. No one will call me.Still not hooked up 30th message back-and-forth. You gonna make me pay for your defective device to send it back. Why can no one help me this is a joke.

  • ChuckGasaway
    chuck gasaway (@ChuckGasaway) reported

    @OffBalanze @ArloSmartHome Agreed. With essential functions shutting down, our VMC4030 cameras will be basically useless. I can live without firmware updates for awhile... but... Arlo won't be a part of any decision matrix when looking for replacements.

  • Gshigs
    LOCK HIM UP 🇺🇸 🇺🇦 (@Gshigs) reported

    @CNETNews Arlo is a scam. Advertise cloud storage and camera notifications for years - the main reason for choosing them - and then just announce they’re EOLing and shutting it down. Why would anyone buy from @ArloSmartHome again?
