Arlo Audio Doorbell User Reviews, Pros and Cons: Great add on to the Arlo Pro camera system!
Before purchasing several Arlo Pro cameras, we tried several video doorbells but none of them worked well in our particular location. So, we opted for the Arlo system instead. We are happy with the system as it gives us added surveillance a doorbell does not give. However, the audio 2-way setup on those cameras is really unusable.
Alas, an audio doorbell from Arlo to the rescue! It is very easy to install. It works with our inside chime (the other video ones did not). It has little to no audio lag. It rings your phone (s). It's loud enough to use! The doorbell is paired with an Arlo camera of your choice. We paired ours to a view of our front door. The doorbell has a motion sensor, so it triggers that camera. The camera feed is also on your phone while you're speaking to the person at your door! The sound is duplex and when you're done, you hit "end" on your phone. There are several message options you can deliver to the visitor. The visitor can also leave you a message. Very cool implementation. It was very easy to install, too.
However directions don't cover all of the features. For example there is a message to the person pushing the doorbell to leave a message if nobody answers the door. Directions don't cover that and we don't know where the massage is stored. Chime on bell is loud on low setting.
