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.

I am no one. (@mahasitavati) reported@ArloSmartHome @TechHive Customer service is the worst, not worth it. Do not buy from this company.
-
Bat Attitude (@AttitudeBat) reported@ArloSmartHome ARLO…. This is Your ELO! Bad, business decision. No one forced to upgrade will stay with your system. Shame on you… wouldn’t stay if it was free now. Snakes!
-
Bailey (@ColinBaileyUK) reported@androidcentral It confirms one essential point. The included at purchase, 7 day cloud storage agreement, is being unilaterally reneged by Arlo. Poor show, dreadful customer approach @mbmcrae @ArloSmartHome
-
Shaun Verses Sheep (@shaunvssheep) reported@ArloSmartHome App is not muting notifications on IOS... Please fix... No matter how many times I press "mute notifications" in arlo app, it still sends them...
-
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..
-
Christopher Hahn (@ChrisHahn14) reported@ArloSmartHome please have my case #43366554 addressed and handled immediately. 26 cameras, 3 base stations are now useless paperweights costing me thousands of $ because my subscription is not working any longer.
-
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...
-
Wowzr (@Wowzzr) reported@ArloSmartHome EOL email glad I switched to reolink years ago! **** #reolink
-
🅷🅴🅰🆅🅴🅽 🆂🅴🅽🆃 * 🅰🆁🅼🆈 🆅🅴🆃 (@HeavenS98386596) reported@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!
-
George Santos (@George__Santos) reportedI just got notified that you are EOL'ing our cameras. Thanks a lot for causing working devices to be thrown in the trash heap. We bought these about 4 years ago. We would have bought Arlo again but if 4 years is all we can expect, forget it. @ArloSmartHome
-
Save Lives! (@BrotherBourbon) reportedHey @ArloSmartHome I just bought a whole system on Ring because your chat is terrible and you can’t get anyone on a call. Worst customer support I’ve ever seen.
-
AmberChaiT (@AmberChaiT) reported@ArloSmartHome hey idiots!HOW ABOUT ACTUALLY SENDING THE PUSH NOTIFICATIONS THIS YEAR WHEN SOMEONE NEEDS TO LOG IN? WOW YOU SYSTEMS ARE ****!
-
Frank (@taita1965) reportedTried 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.
-
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
-
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.
-
sam morton (@sgmorton) reported@ArloSmartHome I will never reco your products. Killing my camera systems I've invested in for years is poor practice. My cams that I paid for will keep working fine... But only if now years after I purchased them, I start to pay a subscription fee! You can get bent!
-
Melissa (@llprncs) reported@ArloSmartHome @ring I bet ring doorbell would help me set up my doorbell if I got one from them how is Arlo such a piece of junk the entire company no one can help four months later still no doorbell set up
-
ناصر محمد الأمريكي (@nasiralamreeki) reported@mbmcrae Strongly suggest enabling remote local storage access via app for VMB4000. Push EOL for Arlo Pro to 2024. Offer all EOL system owners two years of the newer gen cloud storage free. Otherwise every EOL system owner is walking bad PR for @ArloSmartHome for life.
-
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.
-
TypicalPanda (@Typicallypanda) reported@ArloSmartHome 2 months notice of EOL support for Arlo Pro cameras before they become bricks? Not even a trade in program or anything? Terrible customer service. Won't be buying another Arlo product.
-
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
-
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!
-
🏎 (@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?
-
Colin (@wHENigEToFF) reportedSo 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
-
Jack Johnson (@JackJoh58480894) reported@ArloSmartHome Your system is terrible. Your cameras will not stay connected. When you try to reconnect it takes multiple, multiple attempts, if they even ever do connect. Can’t get help from a live person. Customer service is almost non existent.
-
SAMA (@SAMA92458684) reported@ArloSmartHome Unfortunately I couldn’t log into my account from my phone or from any other devices. I tried to do all the steps that mentioned in the website through the society experience please, I need help to login .
-
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.
-
Ryan P. Cooney (@ryanpcooney) reported@blackironfitter @ArloSmartHome The hardware has been great. They stopped working when we were -30, but otherwise, I have never had an issue. I have four of them around the house and can monitor very closely, from wherever. No subscription. Hopefully @ArloSmartHome will rethink this.

F3L!C!A (@FreakyFelicia) reported from New Westminster, British Columbia@ArloSmartHome customer service is trash
