Setting up your Arlo
®
Go camera involves a few simple steps. Your Arlo account lets
you view videos from any Internet-connected computer or mobile device. You can use
the same Arlo app to set up and manage Arlo Go and other Arlo cameras.
What You Need to Install and Use Your Arlo Go
Camera
You need the following to activate your Arlo Go camera:
• A computer or mobile device with Internet access
• An activated SIM card with a data plan
• If you are using a computer, you also need a supported web browser. The
following browsers are qualified to work with the Arlo web application:
• Internet Explorer 10 or later
• Microsoft Edge
• Firefox 3.5 or later
• Safari 3 or later (only with Mac OS X)
• Chrome (latest version)
• If you are using a mobile device, you need the Arlo app, which requires iOS 8 or
later or Android 4.1 or later. To download the mobile app for your smartphone or
tablet, visit your device’s app store and search for Arlo.
During activation, your Arlo Go camera must be in a location with mobile
network data coverage.
Activate a SIM Card
The Arlo Go camera uses the mobile network to send video to your Arlo account in
the cloud. To do this, the Arlo Go camera uses an activated SIM card installed inside
the camera.
For information about how to activate SIM cards, see the instructions from your
SIM service provider.
