Use GPS to locate an Arlo Go 2 Camera

If you install your Go 2 camera outdoors and need help locating it, set up Arlo Go 2’s GPS tracking feature. After location tracking is turned on in the Arlo app, you can view the camera’s approximate location on a map.

Before you start:

  • When you turn on GPS location tracking in the Arlo app, Arlo monitors of the approximate location of your Go 2 camera. Arlo activates GPS tracking once per day to scan for the device’s location, and reports the location in the Arlo app.

  • The Arlo Go 2 GPS location feature only works outdoors in locations where you have a clear view of the sky. Obstructions like trees, cars, or buildings can reduce location accuracy and increase wait time between updates.

  1. Launch the Arlo Secure app.
  2. On the Devices page, tap the Settings icon for your Go 2 camera.
  3. Tap Locate.
  4. Turn Device Location on.

Note: Arlo monitors the general location of your camera by running a GPS scan once per day.
