-
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.

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
-
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.
-
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?
-
LakeShowFresh (@LakeSkol) reported@ArloSmartHome @C__Start It’s crazy. It works on iPad intermittently but on my iPhone completely offline. Simultaneously
-
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.
-
Michael Bobelian (@mbobelian) reportedIn 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
-
Jacob Hernandez (@JJHulk85) reported@ArloSmartHome Why is it so hard to get assistance on my camera, when I do get someone they hang up on me and are talking to someone else while talking to me. Still haven't resolved my camera issue
-
Stan Querin (@BlackStangBC) reported@AndyBaryer @ArloSmartHome @Dlink need some more cameras...i have 4 swann 1080p with dvr for sale..i used the setup for 4 months till i got reno-victed and i took them down, old landlord wanted me to leave them because i put screw holes in fascia but i said NO been boxed for over a year not allowed in apt.
-
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
-
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?
-
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?
-
Ian Ireland (@amracinggreen) reported@ArloSmartHome Thinking of buying Arlo? I’d think twice. An 18-month-old camera fails, it’s just out of warranty, yet I’ve paid a monthly subscription throughout. This isn’t my first poor experience either 1/4
-
Greg - digging through archives (@GregLilly) reported@ArloSmartHome I can't find a way to switch my subscription to yearly -- like the price increase email said to do....HELP!
-
Brandon Pieratt (@TweederP) reported@ArloSmartHome I ordered from @ecobee the same time I ordered from yall and ecobee has shipped…yall haven’t. What’s the delay? And your rep wondered why I didn’t outfit the whole house in Arlo. If you can’t ship in 24 hours I have 0 faith in you getting help out on time.
-
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.
-
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
-
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.
-
John (@JohnBurke72) reported@ArloSmartHome I have called and used your community support. Your support folks said they've never heard another incident like mine but many people on your community forum have the same issue. Your product is low quality
-
Melissa (@llprncs) reported@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.
-
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
-
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.
-
Jerry Norman (@JerryNo40834855) reported@ArloSmartHome the worst camera I've purchased sold by Walmart
-
Andy Baryer (@AndyBaryer) reported@tccdoerk @ArloSmartHome @Dlink No but it's two competitors joining forces to help me find this mouse hole!
-
mamamae (@maegansmiles04) reported@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
-
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.
-
Mircea Piturca (@mirceadesign) reported@ArloSmartHome has probably the worst customer support ever. I have contacted them several weeks ago and I still did not received any response. Amazing how these companies treat customers nowadays
-
Bill Kampouris (@BillKampouris) reported@ArloSmartHome Your cameras suck and so do you as a company. DO NOT BUY THIS GARBAGE!
-
Jason Desaulnier (@Desaulnier27) reported@ArloSmartHome why does the geofencing option for my cameras not work? Please help
-
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 .
