Arlo new app format 7/4/24

Ok, So I just bought a new Essencial outdoor 2nd generation camera for my mom, when I went to "add" the new device to the arlo app, it told me that I needed to upgrade to a new version. After I did that, I realized that the new version is horrible, the layout of the camera video history is different and not so easily to view.

Is there a way that I could go back to the "Version 4.15.1_28683" this previous version was so much friendlier and easy to deal with. Am i the only one having this issue?

No, there is no way of going back.

And you're not the only one 'amazed' at the 'benefits' of using the new User Experience.

If you're using schedules, better psyche up for trying to figure out how to set them up.

Thankfully, since we all went through the pain (yes, this is the correct word choice here) of setting schedules up, we'll be more than happy to help.
