Arlo Baby Smart HD Monitor via firmware update

Netgear adds HomeKit support to Arlo Baby Smart HD Monitor via firmware update | 2021

A software update for Netgear's Arlo Baby Smart HD Monitor Camera will add HomeKit capability later this year.

Support for linked cameras that work with HomeKit has been restricted in the past, but that is beginning to change, according to this year's CES.

Apple's Home app will make it easier for parents to keep a watch on their children than ever before. You may also ask Siri to tour you around the baby's room and use two-way communication to calm your baby.

At $249, the Arlo newborn camera is a little more pricey, but it includes a few extra features not found in other home cameras. A few ideas include baby crying alarms, night lights, a music player, and air quality monitoring.

• Support will be built into future versions of the Arlo Baby Cam HD, but existing owners will be able to receive it through an over-the-arlo firmware update.
