-
Joseph Gruber (@josephgruber@josephgruber.space) (@JosephGruber) reported@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
-
C (@CGurciullo) reported@ArloSmartHome @Arlo - stop advertising new products while you are scamming your existing customer base. Your "end of life" scam is nothing but a money grab. We paid good money for a product that you are artificially shutting down (unless we pay you more money).
-
carly wilson (@carlyally11) reported@ArloSmartHome your animated notifications stopped working yesterday for multiple users as per your forum..please fix it
-
Deryck Evelyn (@deryckev) reported@ArloSmartHome terrible customer service experience. Calls dropped. No call backs for open service requests despite assurances that calls were scheduled.
-
Hugo Cruz (@Hugeduar27) reported@ArloSmartHome My Arlo Essential Wireless Security Camera 3 Pack the battery don't work, i have 6 months with this cameras and the life battery is around 1 hour... i need help with this...
-
Gerard Krupa (@uxian) reportedApparently @ArloSmartHome are raising their prices so they can replace their buggy app with a new shiny buggy app instead of fixing the bugs.
-
Eric W (@ejtt7ciia) reportedTo 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...
-
Stockman Republican (@EBiggunz) reported@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?
-
Caleb J Robinson (@calebjrobinson3) reported@ArloSmartHome Yeah, your DMs are sending me generic links for tech support and subscription services. There was nothing addressing the issue of 7 day cloud storage being deactivated on my account.
-
I am no one. (@mahasitavati) reported@ArloSmartHome @TechHive Customer service is the worst, not worth it. Do not buy from this company.
-
missy (@missy49179801) reported@ArloSmartHome how the hell does someone get to speak w CS person? I’m locked out of my own damn cameras on the app. If I don’t hear from someone soon, I’m gonna trash these things and buy another company’s cameras. There is NOTHING worse than menu aftr menu of support w no help
-
RoughTradeRadio (@RoughTradeRadio) reported@ArloSmartHome @ArloSmartHome system gone bye bye now--in the trash. Here's to hoping losing a customer hurts 🥂Been replaced with @blinkforhome ; hopefully they will continue to support their products 7 years down the road.
-
Dayne Turner (@DayneTurner1) reportedArlo EOLing devices that are 5 years old. Piss poor action by this company. Will be moving to someone else after this move. Tisk tisk. #arlo @ArloSmartHome
-
Jason Abbate (@JasonBrobbate) reported@ArloSmartHome technical support is trying to give me support based off the old Interface choices. Your own tech support line can’t even help me navigate this UI overhaul. What a failure
-
🏎 (@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?
-
Melissa (@llprncs) reported@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
-
Hurleys (@Hurleys96) reported@CreationsRoss @ArloSmartHome Stop at a red light but be 10 cars back. Be the passenger to get out walk down to the red because it’s faster than waiting
-
Tim Kivi (@timkiviprime) reported@ArloSmartHome Do not under any circumstances by Arlo products. Their suport is terrible and the products do not connect to HomeKit
-
716 Fan From 908 (@716_Fan_Frm_908) reported@ArloSmartHome fix your servers. What good is a “security” system that is down for hours.
-
Jason Abbate (@JasonBrobbate) reported@ArloSmartHome I don’t need a link to help me. Your tech support couldn’t even add a device to my account. Your own team can’t even work your stupid interface. Go play in traffic
-
F3L!C!A (@FreakyFelicia) reported from New Westminster, British Columbia@ArloSmartHome customer service is trash
-
avfc (@krispycremekef) reported@ArloSmartHome One of the worst purchases I’ve ever made,end of
-
Kristina (@KNanaG1) reported@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?
-
Hot Dice (@WisconsinSport6) reported@ArloSmartHome Former customer here. Don't buy Arlo. Whatever they promise now they'll change after you buy it. This company is in bad financial shape and will take your money and run. Beware.
-
Jason Abbate (@JasonBrobbate) reported@ArloSmartHome Thank you AI slop but it all worked fine. Then you changed UI. Now it’s broke. I’m still waiting for my call back from your awful Pakistan based support team about this issue from 4 weeks ago. I don’t need an article to tell me how to work location services
-
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?
-
Alex (@alex__0113) reported@ArloSmartHome researched chowing your cameras and quickly regretting it. Not interested in you using you help portal which is useless. DM me an email address that I can email normally. Your CVR prices on your website do not reflect what you actually want !!! Not impressed !!!
-
Matt (@MWillner2) reportedRug-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!
-
Jordan M. Haywood (@jordanmhaywood) reported@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
