How/where do I go to delete old recordings?  Can I delete everything from one day or everything from one camera?  I hope there is an easier way to delete other than one at a time.

To delete a whole day's worth of recordings,

  • in the browser interface
  • bring up the library for a camera (icon between "clock" and "gear wheel")
  • Go to the day you want
  • Select
  • Select All
  • Delete

But why bother? There is no need for this.

Especially when you suddenly realize you need one of those recordings and can't get it back.

Thanks for the information.  Much appreciated.  However, I don't think I understand your response regarding "there is no need to do this".   I thought someone said that once you've used up the free storage, Arlo stops recording.   I want to make sure it captures future activities.  Besides, I have recordings of moths, wasps, spiders, humming birds triggering recordings (they are so curious)..... oh and my dogs.

 

Thanks again for the info.

No. It keeps recordings depending on your subscription. If you pay nothing they self destruct after a week.
