Geofencing with multiple mobile devices
Arlo geofencing works with multiple multiple mobile device.
Arlo uses the rst in, last out principal to manage households where more than one
person uses geofencing. When no one is home, your Arlo Ultra cameras are armed
because no one is inside the geofence. When at least one person is home (rst in),
the cameras are disarmed. If one person leaves, but another stays home, the cameras
are still disarmed until the last person leaves (last out).
Make sure that these conditions are met:
• Your Arlo devices are online.
• Geofencing is enabled.
• Your friends’ and family’s mobile devices are added to your account.
For information about adding devices, see Enable or disable geofencing for
friends’ mobile devices on page 40.
• (Required when your friend wants to participate in geofencing) Your friend is
logged in to the Arlo app on his or her mobile device and the GPS or location
service is enabled on your friend’s mobile device.
