    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.

    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???

  • BeljicaPeak

    @ArloSmartHome Betcha the arbitrary EOL feature removal = class action. No plans to ever spend time and money on Arlo in the future. Arlo couldn’t even make its touted geofencing function reliably and regularly service was down. Now we are rewarded with EOL. Not me.

  • 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 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.

    @ArloSmartHome Worst quality control and customer service I’ve seen in a while. I have 6 cameras and 2 of them died misteriously 2 months after the warranty had expired. Their response after hours of “troubleshooting” with them (making me waste hours on stuff that’s on the manua): “Tough luck”

    @ArloSmartHome #junk #disappointed how can such a huge company not get on the phone to help you when you purchase their equipment and now the answer is I should pay to send back the doorbell to get another one because it took them four months and now I can’t return it

  • KNanaG1

    @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?

    @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 ****!!

    @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?

  • taita1965
    Frank (@taita1965) reported

    Tried to swap my broken camera for new one in my Arlo Secure Single Camera subscription. This used to be flawless but @ArloSmartHome removed this from the functionality. Now I have to cancel my subscription with still 8 months to go, lose my money and start a new subscription.

    I should have listened to the reviews @ArloSmartHome had terrible customer service reviews for a reason. Buy something else. Not this.

  • MikeWoslager

    @ArloSmartHome I bet you don’t even have the proper manual for these cameras. Arlo trash!

    @ArloSmartHome EOL policy is trash will not be buying anymore arlo products and giving you poor reviews where I can

  • HoosierFordMan
    Citizen Mane (@HoosierFordMan) reported

    @ArloSmartHome hey Arlo! Maybe you should stop telling people that it’s their internet that causes every single issue that arises with your cameras! I spent two hours chatting with your worthless support team on the app and that’s all they can offer when it’s so clearly hardware

    If you want the absolute worst security camera buy an Arlo @ArloSmartHome

  • YoungloveJulie
    Julie Younglove (@YoungloveJulie) reported

    @ArloSmartHome has the worst customer service in the world. no phone number, and no live agent in chat. a bot that circles you into nowhere. and all i want is to cancel my account so i stop getting "important updates" for products i no longer own. frustrated af.

    Connie Moulaison (@conniemoulaiso) reported

    @ArloSmartHome @Pocketlint I have over 9 cameras. When I purchased them I did not need a monthly subscription to view my recordings. Since the update 4/24/26 my features are gone. Arlo Tech help can not fix it. Why did Arlo remove my features I’ve had for years?

    @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.

  • barczyksm
    Steven Barczyk (@barczyksm) reported

    @ArloSmartHome Based on the bait-and-switch tactics @ArloSmartHome has employed, I can no longer recommend their products. I look forward to joining the class action lawsuit for my 5 cameras if they go through with their plan. $ARLO down almost 64% over the last year.

  • BadRammaJamma
    justin (@BadRammaJamma) reported

    @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!

  • Eddiiee_G10
    Eddie Omar Garcia (@Eddiiee_G10) reported

    @RyanAma9 @ArloSmartHome I dont think my arlos are that old, but mine are definitely not working.. Maybe its just a bug right now? Mine were working fine earlier.. still even get notifications.

  • 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?

  • calebjrobinson3
    Caleb J Robinson (@calebjrobinson3) reported

    @ArloSmartHome One of the links that was sent to help me was about how to manually record videos. It’s like you didn’t even read what I originally said.

    @ArloSmartHome #arlo is not compatible with iPhone 14. No way to get help from support.

    @ArloSmartHome your "customer service" is non-existent. Three cameras functionally inoperable and I can't get any responses worth a **** within a reasonable (it's been a week) amount of time. Really disappointing.

  • safcbee
    Brian (@safcbee) reported

    @ArloSmartHome Hey! Can anyone reach out and help determine why the batteries in my Arlo Ultra 2 cameras are shockingly bad? The last a matter of days rather than months as advertised..

  • fjr2320gmailco1
    FjR (@fjr2320gmailco1) reported

    @ArloSmartHome I used to like Arlo, I've spent a considerable amount on their products. NOW they refuse to answer my emails regarding a fault in my £179. Door Bell. It mysteriously stopped working, they gave me a few things to try and resolve this issue, none of them worked.

    @ArloSmartHome is there an issue with Trusting new devices for 2FA? My new iPhone and iPad both get error messages when I try to add as trusted devices. My old phone and iPad have been deleted.
