SInce updating to iOS 11.3 the Push to Talk feature no longer works. I am running the latest version of the Arlo App. I flagged this during iOS 11.3 beta and nothing has been done to fix it.  This needs to be fixed ASAP

Speakers in Pro cameras are not working from IOS. They work from MacBook, but neither IPhone 7 or IPad Pro works. All firmwares are most recent and IOS app is current.

Try and contact Netgear Support... maybe they have an answer

I have escalated this topic to engineering and it is currently being investigated. I will post an update when I have more information.

This is definitely an iOS 11.3 issue. Push to talk stops working. 

Please fix asap.

The Arlo application is not working for iOS 11.3. It works on prior versions as I test with iPhone 5 and iPad Pro. Both work with iOS versions less than 11.3. With my iPhone 8+ and iOS 11.3, the push to talk microphone does not work. I can hear but I cannot talk thru the camera speaker. I works with Window too. Please fix this problem.

 

Thanks

Got an update yesterday on this issue from Netgear Support

 

"Good day!

When you call, refer to your case number for us to immediately pull up your information. We provide 24/7 technical support so you may call us at your most convenient time."

Did you also whine to Apple? Worked before, apparently works on 11.4 beta - sounds like there's a possibility there, too.

I can confirm that Push to Talk DOES NOT work on iOS 11.4 Beta 2.

I too have recieved a response from Netgear stating that this is a known issue and they dont have a timeframe on when it will be fixed!

I don’t believe you can lay the blame on any platform other than Arlo. We’ve seen complaints from Android, Apple, and PC.

Just bought and installed new Arlo Pro 2 and found the same problem with IOS 11.3 and latest firmware. Disappointing with 1st experience with Arlo and key feature not working. Netgear - please fix ASAP.

haha, I bought my system a few days ago at Best Buy. I'm still within the return period. I'm really debating it.

I am also an IPhone user, since my last update I have not been able to use the push to talk or microphone on one of two cameras. Which are both Arlo Pro 2 . The camera which is plugged into AC power has the issue while the camera in my garage with only battery power has microphone and talk abilities. Highly disappointed in the issue, Arlo is suppose to be the best and for the money this issues should not be happening.

  • Same issues as everyone else. Bought a package deal at Costco with 5 cameras. Have iOS 11.3.1.  Push-to-talk feature doesn’t work on 5 cameras.  Arlo needs to figure this out ASAP. I’m about ready to take the whole system back to Costco and get some other system.

This has been broken for almost a month.  Why can’t netgear give us a status update to what’s going on- besides the standard dumb response that they are investigating the issue. 

 

I too have 5 of these cameras and I’m sorry I bought them.
