Location services permissions are required to be enabled on your mobile device for the Arrive/Leave Automations to work properly:

For Android devices:

By default, your Android device enables the overall location service, though you need to grant permission to each app you install. If location services have been turned off for your Android device, you can switch it back on with a few taps.

• In Location settings, ensure Location is set to On, and Improve Accuracy is enabled for Wi-Fi Scanning and Bluetooth Scanning.
• In the Android Settings for Apps, ensure the Arlo Secure App has the Location Permission set to Allow all the time.

For iOS devices:

If location services have been disabled for your iOS device, you can turn it back on with a few taps.

• Go to your device Settings.
• Scroll down and tap Arlo Secure.
• Ensure Location access is set to Always and Precise Location is set to On.

For both Android and iOS devices:

Ensure Wi-Fi is enabled. Enabling Wi-Fi on your mobile device improves location accuracy, even if you are not connected to a Wi-Fi network.
