Music icon greyed out on arlo baby

MikeLay — Thu, 30 Apr 2020 12:54:06 GMT

Hi,

Issue started today where I can't select the music icon at all to play music / white noise on the arlo baby. Not sure if this is b/c of the latest update. But very annoying...

I've had the device for 2 yrs. Weve had many many many other issues but first time this has happened...

Advice on how to fix this?

Hi @MikeLay

Are you still experiencing this issue with your Arlo baby?

Still an issue my wife and I have had for about the last week now. Both on Samsung galaxy s20 phones. Uninstalled the app and reinstalled, tried deleting a few songs, worried about the space on the device and can't turn on or off music still. The button is grayed out, while all other functions are operational.

My wife and I are having the same issue -- the music icon is greyed out and can't play anything. New issue as of today.

Hello,
It seems to be a problem with Android app since last update... I have the problem with my Andoid but my wife doesn't have the same issue with her iPhone.

Is there an answer to this? This is impacting my Pixel 2 and my wife's Samsung Galaxy S6. It was intermittent and mainly when on same wifi but is now constantly not available

The Arlo development team is currently investigating this issue with the Arlo Baby music icon. We will provide an update as soon as we have more information to share with the community.

We have been having the same issues over the last week on both of our Android phones. If he cries during the night I usually change the music and he goes back to sleep, but recently I haven't been able to as the button is intermittently greyed out. This has resulted in me having to get up for a night feed. Not happy. Please rectify and update me ASAP Arlo.

Thanks.

Music/Sound Library NOT WORKING!

Chipz — Tue, 05 May 2020 20:06:48 GMT

Our Arlo Baby's Music/Sound library is not working on both our Android devices running two different software versions, The music/Sound button in app rarely works and when it does it rarely has any functioning buttons and can not play or even find any stored/recorded sounds.
Please fix Arlo/Netgear as this is killing both me and my partner at night not being able to activate music remotely at night for our crying baby.

My husband and I have been having the same issue with the greyed out music icon for over a week now. Both of us have samsung galaxy phones. Hoping for a resolution soon as babe sleeps so well with the constant music. Hopefully we dont have to buy new phones.

I think you can use the web portal https://my.arlo.com to play music until the android app problem will be resolved

Arlo Baby Lullaby’s not working AGAIN

LukaS85 — Sun, 10 May 2020 18:16:53 GMT

Arlo Baby Music list keeps disappearing all the time every day, every night... Every time before I put my baby to sleep, first I need EVERY DAY to manually download each and same song EVERY DAY + 6 of 7 days when I turn on the app I can't turn on the music except If I go directly to the baby room and click on a camera to turn on the music.

Your product is f***** trash, It keeps disconnecting all the time, I can't play music playlist over Android, it's so frustrating, what a waste of money...

As a workaround while this issue is being addressed, there are two options you may try. You can switch your mobile device from a 5g network to a 2.4g network if applicable. Alternatively, switching to Mobile Data should work as well & the music icon should now be available.

I've tried turning the music on and off over my mobile network and it still doesn't work.

Thanks but switching to 2.4G wifi did not work. What did work for my husband & I was the other recommendation: to access from a desktop/laptop. Like the other users who have commented, for the last couple of weeks, we have the same issues w/music icon greyed out. We both have Android phones. Hope this is resolved asap.

Recently applied the update to my arlo baby monitor. Have a super long delay now, I cant use the music button half the time and picture takes me 2 to 3 times of closing the app and reopening the app to pixelated properly. We just update our internet to the fast package a week ago, so I do not believe it is that.
What is going on? Anyone experiencing the same thing?

This is still an issue. It sucks. The music option not working made me cry tonight out of frustration.
