I am new, so go easy. I have had my Arlo Pro (5 camera system) for a couple months now and love it. The default modes I never use, I have 4 custom modes that cover pretty much all my needs. I got the SmartThings hub and a couple lights so I can use my Arlo to trigger my outside lights.
But for the life of my I cannot figure out ST’s Home Solutions. Does anyone know of a good guide? Are there really only 3 modes you can set? Armed (away), Armed (home) and Disarmed? That won’t cut it. Also I hear there is significant lag when recording to ST’s vs Arlo. So maybe I should just not bother with it.?
For now I am using the Arlo app to control my camera’s and luckily I can still have the motion sensor’s from my Arlo trigger lights, (phew).
Also if anyone has some thought on how I can use OK google to set custom modes, sometimes I just want to just go check the mail, let the dog out or something and would rather use voice to set a custom mode (disable one camera) rather than grabbing my phone and doing it. Anyway’s thanks!
Thanks,
Scott
