My Friend was monitoring our house while we were out of town. I have deleted her access out of our account and she is continuing to receive notifications from our cameras.

She has an Arlo system too so she simply can’t just delete the app.

We have tried logging out, deleting the app, restarting the phone, everything. She is not visible in my “Friends” and can’t see the cameras or recorded videos. But continues to get the push notifications.

My mother in law went away on holiday so she added me as a friend so I could receive notifications from her house and keep an eye on it. She has now removed me but I am still receiving push notifications. I have uninstalled both our apps and reinstalled. I have removed all her cameras from my app. This is driving me mad!! Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi 13tate and rsgixer,

 

What notification is the (deleted) grant access getting? Could you provide a screenshot (if possible) of what notification you're receiving?

It would be better to delete the grant access account completely rather than simply deselecting cameras.

Hello,

They are still receiving push notifications when my camera picks up motion and records.

They do not have grant access in the account anymore and cannot actually view the “notification” or the cameras.

I have deleted the cameras and readded them, changed the camera name. We have both have deleted and reinstalled the app, logged out and back in. Nothing is stopping my friend from receiving notifications from my devices after they have had their access removed.

My mother in law has hers armed 24-7 so I have to mute my notifications so I effectively cannot use my system.

Not a clue, Arlo support do not know either, they are looking into it. I don't think it is something you can do. You will have to contact Arlo support.

For everyone who is receiving push notifications even when they don't have grant access anymore, what notification are you receiving? Could you please share a screenshot of the notification you're receiving?

For users who are experiencing this issue, the development team would like to know what phone device the main account user is using AND what phone device the grant access user is using.
