Hi, Ive been a arlo user for just short of 2 years and they have worked flawlessly for that period no issues whatsoever, I recently updated the app on my phone as it asked me to, now I belive with this update it also update something on my cameras, the batteries are now only lasting about 3 days, prior to this I was only charging once every 2 months. What has arlo done to my camera, I hope it's not like apple where they deplete your batteries with a firmware update that makes you buy a whole new setup!!!! Any ideas?

Try rebooting the hub to see if that helps. If not, try reinserting the batteries to get the camera back to a known state. BTW, are the cameras connected to solar panels? There have been some issues where the panels are causing rapid battery depletion. If so, try disconnecting the panels.
