Set up Arlo Geofencing
Geofencing is a virtual fence around a location called a zone. You can use Arlo Geofencing to
arm, disarm, or resume schedule modes when your mobile device is in zone or out of zone.
To set up geofencing, you must use your mobile device and allow the Arlo app to use your
location.
Geofencing accuracy
For accuracy, geofencing uses a combination of GPS, cellular data, and WiFi data. The local
environment aects geofencing:
• In urban environments, where the cell towers and WiFi routers are more dense, geofencing
accuracy can reach 100–200 meters.
Note: If you live in a skyscraper, geofencing might not work reliably due to GPS
inaccuracies. Using the Large radius setting might help.
• In rural areas, where cell towers and WiFi routers are sparse, geofencing accuracy can
reach several hundred meters.
