Hi, I’ve yet to buy outdoor camera for my home security solution. I have read many suggest Arlo, but now I can’t find Arlo app after v5 release. Is it no longer supported?

Hello,

I have an Arlo, but if I where you I shouldn’t buy this. Video quality is perfect, build qualtiy is perfect.
But if you want for example;

  • Motion Detection Zones (on battery mode)
  • Cloud storage
  • Video playback

It’s all subscription based;

Ok, you can save the video to local storage, but if you want to view it outside your network you need to do some firewall tricks.

For Homey, there are just a few camera’s that are working with the app voor V4.* (not V5).

At the moment I’m selling my Arlo and probably gonna buy an Eufy.

I’m using Foscam camera’s connected to my Synology NAS.
Both Foscam and Synology intergrate with Homey, you can store your recordings on your NAS.
