Arlo has made viewing local storage difficult?

Arlo appears to be using deceptive tactics to try to force people to purchase storage plans as they have hidden access to local storage under the smart hub in the updated app. The "Feed" button states - get a plan to view video recordings . . This implies a "plan" is required. Not good or transparent and is deceptive. Arlo should reinstate the "local storage" access under the "Feed" button.

It's indeed to sign up as many people to the plan as possible.

Anyway, update the app to the latest version. You can only access local storage if you're using a SmartHub.

I am using SmartHub but the "local" tab under "Feed" is so wrong if not rubbish at all. This has been raised before but of course ARLO won't bother to fix it.

Now I am still using DEVICES >> base >> Storage Settings to view local storage.
