CVR with an optional Arlo SmartHub or base
station
Continuous Video Recording (CVR) is available only if you pair your camera to an optional Arlo
SmartHub or base station (sold separately). Continuous video recording, or CVR, is an optional
Arlo Smart feature. With CVR activated on your camera, you can record all the action 24/7. CVR
captures everything in the background, and you can rewind to catch anything you missed.
