Should have adjustment for cameras to group together, see light power, show recent thumbnail, etc.

The basic need for access to cameras is good.  But making adjustments is clumsy.

  • After adding new cameras there should be an adjustment to allow the new camera to be grouped with the others.  Instead it is just the last device added in line after any other Arlo device.
  • To see light power remaining the app requires you to navigate three steps deep.  Why is this not the same as the cameras.
  • App shows camera recent activity in thumbnail.  But no video has been recorded.  
  • Have never been able to speak through any camera.  I have fiber optic internet so bandwidth is not an issue.
  • Searching through thumbnails for a specific activity is clumsy and time consuming.  There should be a history gram of lower resolution that can be used to find the higher resolution recordings.
  • In narrow viewing angles the camera is best setup sideways so more high and low coverage is recorded.  The app should allow the rotation of viewed image by 90 degrees.
  • Solar cell is not large enough to reliably charge a high mounted camera with no AC power.
  • Solar cell cord should be longer so panel can be mounted with full sun exposure when camera is not near the sun.

Have you found the Device Order in the Settings zone.
