Geofencing Accuracy
For accuracy, geofencing uses a combination of GPS, cellular data, and WiFi data.
The local environment aects geofencing as follows:
• In urban environments, where the cell towers and WiFi routers are more dense,
geofencing accuracy can reach 100–200 meters.
Note: If you live in a skyscraper, geofencing might not work reliably due to GPS
inaccuracies. Using the Large radius setting might help.
• In more rural areas, where cell towers and WiFi routers are sparse, geofencing
accuracy can reach several hundred meters.
To improve geofencing accuracy, ensure that your mobile device meets these
conditions:
• WiFi is turned on.
• GPS or location services are turned on.
Geofencing First In Last Out
Arlo Baby cameras use the first in, last out principal within the geofencing feature
when more than one family member use geofencing. First in, last out allows you
to come and go without worrying about turning Arlo Baby camera monitoring o
and on. For example, if one family member leaves the house before you, your Arlo
Baby camera can keep monitoring until you leave the house with the baby because
you are still in the house or geofence. After you leave the house and both mobile
devices are outside the geofence, your Arlo Baby camera stops monitoring.
For more information about managing multiple devices, see Geofencing With
Multipe Mobile Devices on page 49.
