Arlohub VMB5000 - can local feed downloads to mobile device be automatic

Arlohub VMB5000 - can local feed downloads to mobile device be automatic? Now each Local Feed event needs to be downloaded to my smartphone manually.  Can this be automated so when I open the Local Feed I can see all the events immediately?

Also as I use the Feed to see my events, can the Feed view open at the Local view first and not the Cloud?

Hello,

There is no auto download for the events. And for the other question you would have to click cloud/local to see the feeds.

Thanks for your reply.  I would be good if the feed display could be automatic.  Something for development?

Another aspect of the direct access to local storage feature which is intentionally crippled.

FWIW, the full list is:

• local recordings only available from the app, not my.arlo.com
• local recordings only available using the primary account credentials
• no thumbnails, so the recording needs to be downloaded to your phone in order to see anything
• no ability to make manual recordings or take snapshots while livestreaming
• remote access requires router setting changes that some find difficult (and which will not work with some internet service providers).

While they might change this, these limitations have been in place for over 5 years now.
