How this automation works
Get instant alerts and keep track automatically when your Arlo camera spots a vehicle. This Applet runs whenever your selected Arlo device detects motion associated with a vehicle, triggering a phone call and adding a reminder to your iOS Reminders list. It's perfect for monitoring driveways or parking areas with Arlo and staying informed even when you're away.
