Arlo worked well initially, easy install/ setup, and the mobile app was simple. Then, the developers went and changed it, and now it is always on even if my phone is not open. Some features are just gone or so limited to customize now. They now want you to purchase a plan in order to get the device to work properly. Also, the firmware doesn't update after a while, so you're stuck with choppy videos at night. It may or may not catch videos of people on your porch/property. Switching immediately.

In comparison with my other purchases, the camera quality is very good. The one that I keep outside has held up pretty well during our past rain storms and strong winds. I give it 4 stars because I can get the sensitivity of the motion sensor quite right. It's either way too sensitive whereas it buzzes and records every 5-10 secs. at a 25-30 ft distance ...or it doesn't. Needless to say, it runs my phone battery life very fast😒 . Other than that, I think it's a great investment.

Terrible experience over the original. Most annoying part, swiping through the videos in landscape mode and find a video I want to download the 3 dots aren't there. Fine I'll rotate oh cool takes me back to the beginning. I also used to be able to set a custom mode for windy days with the sensitivity turned down. That feature doesn't seam to exist anymore
