I noticed guests cannot view clips that are stored locally. Secondary admins neither.
And admins, main or secondary, cannot delete clips one by one or batch delete either. We have to format the disk every now and then.

The current implementation of Direct Local Storage is rather shameful. It feels to me like Arlo cripples the local storage voluntarily to push us to subscribe to the monthly plans. Had I known local storage was so crippled, I wouldn't have purchased Arlo. And thanks to the free cloud trial, once the trial is over we are no longer eligible for a return.

Any update on this? Are the two features at least planned on the product roadmap?
