How to delete your Arlo account

Canceling your Arlo subscription means you'll no longer have to make monthly payments, but it won't delete all your account information. To do that, you'll need to delete your account. Keep in mind that deleting your account will permanently erase your account data (such as settings and recordings), and you won't have the option to restart your account.

Still sure you want to delete your Arlo account? Follow these steps.

Step 1: Go to the official Arlo website.

Step 2: Go to Settings, then enter the Privacy Center.

Step 3: Navigate to your Account tab. Depending on your account, this might be in the Data Privacy submenu.

Step 4: Select Delete Arlo Account, then confirm your selection by selecting Permanently Delete Arlo Account.

Step 5: Wrap up the process by following any pop-up instructions.

Step 6: With that done, you'll get one last email from Arlo confirming the deletion.

How to fix Error 5
This error relates to the main brush of the robot. To resolve the problem, make sure the brush isn’t caught on anything and that nothing is blocking it from spinning. This includes removing the brush from the robot and checking its installation chamber, as debris and hair can get trapped inside. Once you’ve cleared out any debris, the error should fix itself.
