# Arlo

\*\*Please note that this application has been removed from the app store and is no longer supported. As it requires an aggressive 2FA which doesn’t allow automation \*\*

Version 2 is a very major update where I rewrote all of the underlying communication layer with Arlo. Consequently it requires significant testing, below you will a list of all the features of version 1 of the app crossed out. Items tested and working will be plain text and latest additions will show in green.

- New feature/flow/device
- ~~Unsupported feature/flow/device from version 1~~
- Tested and supported feature/flow/device

## Notes

Please note that this app now only supports Homey v4.0 +

**Its Highly recommended that you create a new Arlo user, and add the device to Homey using the new user. To ensure that you are not kicked from the Mobile app by Homey and required to re-log in.**

## Using

1. After installing, to add a new Device, click + (add) upon the devices tab select “Arlo Device”.
2. Likely a the screen will open asking for you to log into your arlo account.
3. The loading screen may stay for up to a minute, but once completed your arlo devices will be shown.
4. Click on which devices you would like to add to Homey.

## Possible Uses

TBA

## Other

Otherwise everything else is as advertised in the post, hit me up on Slack (@jamie) if you have any questions or issues. Items show in this post (and only this post) are confirmed to work.

Hi @alex_Tom welcome to the community

I would love to add you both as alpha testers, I am currently testing the VMC4030P.

But it is simply not possible for me to add you to the alpha program if I dont have the email address which you use to login into the [app.athom.com](http://app.athom.com) store. Please have a read of the quoted text above and if your still interested just follow the instructions.

Thanks

P.S. @Seraphim, same applies, if that wasnt clear.

Thanks

I don’t suppose there is anyone with a VMC3010, I believe it is similar to the VMC3030 - but with out night camera (IR) ?

The Arlo Q is a different beast, as it is both a base station and a camera - support is possible, but it will be quite difficult with out access to a device.
