Use camera positioning to aim your camera
Camera positioning is available only when the camera is not streaming, recording motion, or
using the Motion Detection test. During camera positioning, the camera streams video as fast
as possible, without buffering. You can aim your camera while watching on your smartphone
and making near real-time adjustments to the camera position. This means that you might
see lower-quality video while you are positioning your camera.
To position your camera:
1. Open the Arlo Secure App.
2. Tap

Device Utilities > Camera Positioning

The camera starts streaming video. The signal strength bar indicates the Wi-Fi signal that
your camera is receiving at its current location.
