4. Tap Geofencing .
5. Allow the Arlo app to use your mobile device’s location.
Geofencing works only if Arlo can locate your mobile device. The Location Address page
displays your current address.
6. To change the radius setting, tap Radius and select a radius size.
Radius size sizes are Small, Medium, and Large (approximately 150 meters, 250 meters,
and 500 meters, respectively).
7. Tap Device Location and enter a name for your location.
8. Tap Away Mode and select a mode.
Your camera uses the Away mode when your mobile device is outside the radius of your
camera’s location. Most people select Armed, Schedule, or Custom Mode so that the
camera detects motion while they’re gone.
9. Tap Home Mode and select a mode.
Your camera uses this mode when your mobile device is within the radius of your camera’s
location. Most people select Disarmed while they’re home.
If you use more than one enabled mobile device, you might be asked to select an Arlo
device to connect it to.

Geofencing with multiple mobile devices
Arlo Geofencing works with multiple mobile devices.
Arlo uses the rst-in, last-out principal to manage households where more than one person
uses geofencing. If everyone leaves home with their mobile devices, this triggers an away
state. Since no one is inside the geofence, your cameras are armed. When the rst person
comes home (rst in), their mobile device is now inside the geofence, triggering the home
state and your cameras are disarmed. If one person leaves, but another is still home, the
cameras stay disarmed in the home state until the last person leaves (last out).
We recommend that you enable geofencing only for the mobile device that each person
carries every day. For example, if you use a smartphone and a tablet, and you take your phone
when you leave, set your phone as an Enabled Device in your Geofencing settings. Don’t set
your tablet as an enabled device, because Away mode won’t be triggered when you go out
and leave your tablet home.
