No live camera connection and no library recordings despite motion detection

yuki_1 — Sat, 02 Jan 2021 09:52:27 GMT

Since two weeks we have the following issue:

- camera appears offline in the app even though the internet is working

- camera detects motions and sends alerts, but recordings dont show up in the library

- camera does not establish a live feed or takes several minutes and attempts

After reseting the base station and reconnecting the camera, the same issues persist.

Does anyone have the same experience and knows how to solve it?

Thank you.

Have you rebooted the phone and reinstalled the app? Also, try the web client.

Since you've already done the system reset, use the Contact Support link at the bottom here. The only alternative I can think of would be to reset and set it back up in a new account using a different email address.

This seems to be an issue that started in December-ish with Arlo. It is clearly a system wide Arlo issue, but they haven't provided resolution. We have been missing recordings since December, completed all troubleshooting steps requested and still no resolution. You can see here on the community pages and other pages there is a significant issue impacting many if not all users. Hopefully Arlo will post the issue, impacts, and resolution soon.

yuki_1,

Are you able to manually record? Do those manual recordings show up in the library?

Exactly the same issue ongoing since 24.12.2020, report 24.12.2020 but no resolution

App says Offline, but cameras still available via HomeKit

IOS App version 2.22.6

Very poor Arlo

I had the same problem. I force stopped the app on my Android device and now my Arlo system is working.
