What is going on with the SmartThings + Arlo integration lately? It hardly seems to be “integrated” at all these days. There are significant lag times between a motion sensor connected to SmartThings detecting motion and then triggering an Arlo cam to record the scene. Arlo Pro cams seem to trigger…

I would like to know also what’s going on with arlo & smart things? I’m looking to purchase the arlo pro but so far it has been nothing but issues. I just had installed a ring doorbell pro & no complaints, their customer service is very responsive to. I have not heard the same about arlo/netgear.

Agree with OP. There’s a 10-15 second delay between the initial motion detection event and when SmartThings performs an action based on that motion detection (in my case, turns on the outside lights right next to the Arlo Pro). It used to be less than a second.

The Arlo integration is poor at best. There’s an “outage” right now even on live feed and recording according to the status page: https://status.smartthings.com Who knows when it will be resolved… The only way I have gotten my Arlo Pro to be useful at all with Smartthings is to add them to Smartt…

There is a known problem with Arlo right now and some staff discussion of it in the following thread: [image] Routines not running General Discussion There is a PR (Pull Request) opened with a fix for Arlo. I can updated when I have more information. It is moving forward …

Hah, nice. Just bought an Arlo Pro today (Yes I am aware of the 2’s release) and couldn’t get a stream to work through smartthings. I guess i’ll see how it goes once this outage is over.

The past week, perhaps a little longer, my Arlo Pro integration with SmartThings has been hosed. I was using the Android widget to Arm and disarm the cameras (my only using the Armed Mode in the Arlo Pro, and having SmartThings simply turn the cameras off and on. I did it this was as the original …

I have given up. I deleted the Arlo integration in ST. I arm & disarm the cameras using IFTTT and a virtual switch in ST.

As mentioned in today’s update, I was given the “Re-Authorize Connection to Arlo” prompt in the app. My rules / routines for when to turn off/on cameras are working again! Hope its back to normal for others, this was frustrating!

I finally got a response from Netgear that these problems are known and they are working on them. I found that everytime I used ST to turn off a camera, the camera would lose it’s connection and I would have to re-pair it to the hub.

Hello all, I use springify. It WORKS!!! Arlo - smarthings connection issues have been driving me crazy. I had the rule set up in smarthings that said when the mode is away and if the front door opens, record the front camera. The rule worked but no clips were generated. I realized you can always g…

SmartThings + Arlo - seriously, what is going on with this integration lately?
