When I look at the app on my phone, the battery icon that shows is red outlined with a red lightning bolt in the center. At the same time, the battery percentage says 100%. Yesterday it was 95% at one point and then charged up to 100% with the solar panel. The icon has not changed for days; always red with red lightning bolt. I looked it up on arlo's website and that icon is not shown in the table of icons. The red battery icon they show has an exclamation point. Anybody know what my icon means?

Per @JamesC, it's a recent UI change.  The red color means the charger (e.g., panel) is connected, but that the battery is not charging. 

 

It is confusing and has resulted in a flood of posts here.
