    Just how bad is @ArloSmartHome set-up experience? Bad enough to get you to return the entire system and purchase one from Google or China instead. And that's pretty bad...

    In less than three years, my Arlo doorbell @ArloSmartHome broke. That's a short lifespan and I can't get anyone to help me with it on the phone or online. I'm disappointed that Arlo won't stand behind its product and the terrible #CustomerService

    @ArloSmartHome your customer service is absolutely the worse!! You have no phone number to contact for support, nothing but automotive questions. I wish I had never bought your cameras!! Can’t get any help from any. Straight trash!!

    @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?

  • MWillner2
    Matt (@MWillner2) reported

    Rug-pull by @ArloSmartHome. Purchased two Arlo Baby’s when they were advertising free cloud storage and now they took it away. This is poor business practice. Also there’s no way to get any service support online unless you pay money for a plan. Do better!

    @ArloSmartHome bought a Pro 5S 2K to test to replace 9 camera system. I had issue but can't get an support because I don't have account ? this is trial version suppose to be good for 30 days. all I get is spinning when trying to view. your idea of "Trial" sucks no sale

    @mbmcrae Fix your current problems! Where is the complete user manual for the Arlo Ultra 2 XL? Is this customer service? I think I bought an @ArloSmartHome boat anchor!

    @ArloSmartHome Also, a fun bug I found - if I add someone as a friend, it will log them out of _their_ account anytime I change the access settings. Let me help you with the test case: User A should not be able to force User B to log out of their account. #cybersecurity #vulnerability

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

  • Finchwizard
    Finchwizard (@Finchwizard) reported

    @ArloSmartHome Terrible company and products. People who used them from the start were beta testers and have now been thrown aside from End of Life products. Stay away and literally chose any other company. Its a disgrace.

  • uxian

    Apparently @ArloSmartHome are raising their prices so they can replace their buggy app with a new shiny buggy app instead of fixing the bugs.

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

    @ArloSmartHome It was clearly a big mistake advising your products to my friends and family, which I now have to explain this terrible EOL decision. Off course will tell them not to use Arlo products ever again after his little stunt.

    @ArloSmartHome @SusannWalters @Pocketlint I have 9 camera I purchased them when Arlo advertised that I would not need a monthly subscription. On April 24th 2026 I lost the features when they did an update. I’m on a fixed income & this was an investment in my home security. Arlo’s technical advisors are no help!

    @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.

  • amracinggreen

    @ArloSmartHome Customer support? Endless scripted troubleshooting I’ve already done, no evidence they’ve read previous case notes, no continuity, no ownership, and no attempt to actually solve the problem. 2/4

    @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

  • ejtt7ciia

    To add insult to injury, 4 days after a new controversial EoL policy, @ArloSmartHome sends an email about 20% price increases. Congrats Arlo - you lost a lifelong fan after two bad decisions. It's the timing - you have to give users more than a couple months notice...

  • 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 I got a new phone and now my system won’t let me log in even with verification and doesn’t “trust” device even after I select trust. No one is answering phone calls and your online chat doesn’t help

    @ArloSmartHome Where do I start… •Your 6month battery claim appears to be more like 1 week •you have more or less double your CVR prices • Why can CVR not be locally stored • I can’t view my cameras live on a laptop • poor customer service Poor company. Would never choose again

    @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.

  • daniellemrubio
    d@nielle (@daniellemrubio) reported

    @ArloSmartHome I cannot log in on app or browser or reset my password. I get an error each time and it tells me to contact support but then says I don’t have access to support. Can you help me so I can use the system I paid hundreds of dollars to install? This is insane.

    @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.

    @ArloSmartHome Your always happy to help Unless you purchased a Pro 2 series, then 0 help, TRUE? Your always happy to help except you produced a model with a battery that can’t be replaced and it dies in 2-6 years Again, no support, Correct?

    @ArloSmartHome recently purchased Pro4 Spotlight with Hub. Cameras keep randomly dropping while others on the same hub stay connected. Sometimes they reconnect. What is the fix?
