Mute Notifications
Mute Notifications temporarily silences push notifications to your mobile device, while videos
continue to be recorded. This is great for a party when you
don’t need to be notified of friends
in your backyard.

Notifications directly from push notifications.
To mute notifications:
1. Open the Arlo app.
2. Tap
Settings > Mute Notifications
.
3. Select the length of time to mute notifications.
A message displays confirming that you are muting notifications. The Mute Notification
status shows the amount of remaining time until notifications resume.
To unmute notifications
1. Open the Arlo app.
2. Tap
Settings > Mute Notifications > Unmute
.
The Mute Notifications status changes to Off.
Rules for modes
Each mode uses one or more rules to control your Arlo system. You can set these options.
•
Trigger device
. The trigger device is the camera that detects motion or sound. You can
adjust the motion and sound sensitivity to minimize false alarms.
•
Action device
. The action device responds to motion or sound detection on the trigger
device. For example, you might want your backyard camera or your driveway camera to
trigger your door camera to start recording video. You decide what action each camera
takes when motion or sound is detected.
•
Notifications
. When a trigger is detected, the Arlo can send you push notifications, email
alerts, or both. You can also send email alerts to friends, family members, pet sitters, or
anyone who might need to respond when a camera is triggered.
