-
taylorpineiro (@taylorpineiro) reportedLooking for a terrible example of an #aichatbot? Look no further than @ArloSmartHome! Truly an atrocious experience.
-
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
-
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..
-
Connie Moulaison (@conniemoulaiso) reported@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!
-
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...
-
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
-
Chris Szmergiel (@SzmergielChris) reported@BeljicaPeak @ArloSmartHome Even better they still lie to their android users forcing them to turn on insecure permissions. I dropped Arlo completely after they doubled down on the permissions.
-
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
-
Merryfield Homes (@MerryfieldHomes) reported@ArloSmartHome can someone please reach out to me. Your chat support is not resolving my issue
-
Alex (@alex__0113) reported@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
-
Gaaiz (@gaaiz) reported@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 I will tell them not to use Arlo products ever again after this little stunt.
-
Dante Hinojosa (@dinferno21) reported@ArloSmartHome Worst product ever definitely get a @ring instead
-
Steven Loi (@StevenLoi) reported.@ArloSmartHome is the only way to unsubscribe from email alerts (but maintain push notification alerts) is to mark your emails as spam? There is no ability on the website nor mobile app to stop the email alerts (baby monitor) - I've looked everywhere. Help.
-
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
-
Jerry Norman (@JerryNo40834855) reported@ArloSmartHome the worst camera I've purchased sold by Walmart
-
Arun 🇮🇳🇺🇸 (@arunt2016) reported@ArloSmartHome I changed my iPhone device after that I am not able to login back. It's sending the verification code to my email and that's not working. Unfortunately there is no support number.
-
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 .
-
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!
-
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!
-
716 Fan From 908 (@716_Fan_Frm_908) reported@ArloSmartHome fix your servers. What good is a “security” system that is down for hours.
-
Stud Sterling (@StudSterling) reported@ArloSmartHome As I shop for a different brand of camera thanks to your EOL announcement, I’ll be sure to tell as many people as I can along the way why you’re the last, and worst, choice. Maddening.
-
Jason Abbate (@JasonBrobbate) reportedCurious why @ArloSmartHome ****** their user interface to tears? There was nothing wrong with it you **** heads
-
Cyndi (@theredwings26jk) reported@ArloSmartHome Resolved the problem everything is back on and working.
-
mauriciobond (@mauriciobond23) reported@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”
-
Donna Rosser (@barefootphoto) reported@ArloSmartHome your customer service and secure plan are a joke. No help.
-
BeautifulOne (@Beautifulone119) reported@ArloSmartHome please help me I have your Arlo Pro 4 system and I've tried ar least 20 times between Saturday and today to set them up. I've followed instructions for how many Ghz AND made sure blue light is blinking AND scanned QR Code. I'm so FRUSTRATED. PLZ DM ME
-
Jaszlyn Fennelle (@JaszlynF) reported@ArloSmartHome Why is it so hard to get help ? It seems so many people are having trouble with battery problems and I need help ! You have to have a subscription to receive live support ? My cameras don’t work !
-
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
-
KerriEngebrecht (@kerri0413) reportedSeriously for three weeks I have been working to replace a stinking power cord for @ArloSmartHome - I am ready to end my subscription because I cannot recharge my cameras and am paying for nothing with them. Chats end abruptly. Need help.
-
Jeff Karotkin (@jhkarotkin) reported@ArloSmartHome I have been with Arlo for four years. I got an EOL notice, so I bought new equip today. I was charged twice for the cams and customer support can't/won't help me. Today's interaction was the worst CS experience I have had w/ any Co in years. #NPSscore is Zero!
