Arlo Secure 5 Provides New Personalized AI-Powered Home Security for Complete Peace of Mind

If you are an Arlo user subscribing to Arlo Secure Plus or Premium plans, you’ll want to know about the brand’s latest smart home offering, Arlo Secure 5. This newest update blends cutting-edge AI with practical, personalized security features. Whether you’re looking to keep an eye on your driveway, ensure your home is secure while you’re away, or simply want to know when a familiar face stops by, Arlo Secure 5 has you covered.

Arlo Secure 5 brings useful AI tools included in the Plus and Premium Arlo Secure plans, like person and vehicle recognition. Thanks to custom alerts that actually tell you who’s there or what’s happening, you’ll know if it’s your best friend pulling up in the driveway or the delivery guy dropping off your latest online order.

Arlo’s advanced AI doesn’t just detect movement; it learns what matters most to you. For example, you can train it to notify you when the garage door is left open or if the dog is napping on the couch—so even when you’re not home, you know exactly what’s going on.

With Arlo’s Custom Detection, you can tailor the system to recognize specific objects or activities around your home. If you’re the type who’s always wondering whether the basement lights were left on or if your pet is up to some couch-surfing mischief, this might be a game-changer for your peace of mind.

Arlo Secure has flexible subscription plans, starting at $12.99 when paid yearly or 14.99 when paid monthly for unlimited cameras. Each subscription tier brings 30 days of cloud storage for your videos so that you can view, save, and share any important footage.

You can also customize your notifications to avoid unnecessary pings—like the neighbor’s cat wandering by—so you’re only alerted when it matters. Plus, with the ability to respond quickly to rich notifications or view animated previews from your lock screen, it’s easier than ever to stay in control of your home’s security without even opening the app.

But the Arlo Secure Plus and Arlo Secure Premium plans go even further. Have a look:
