Arlo’s wired doorbell now supports HomeKit

Arlo’s wired doorbell now supports HomeKit

Earlier this month, Arlo has updated its own wired video doorbell to support HomeKit, but only at a basic level so now support for HomeKit Secure Video here yet it seems. However without Secure Video, standard HomeKit does allow for viewing of live footage only, as well as integrating with any automations.

To get the integration to work, you’ll need the following firmware or newer to be on the basestation:

VMB5000: 1.14.0.91378e45094
VMB4540: 1.15.0.2371f7780e1
VMB4500: 1.14.0.22777
VMB4000: 1.14.0.22776
