The upgraded app is quite cumbersome and not very user friendly. It has also taken away some of the functionality I used before. I have a group of cameras on both our Delaware home and a group on our Florida home. I use to be able to arm or disarm by home. This ability seems lost now. Can anyone help?

You can set up two locations (one for each address) in the app, and move the cameras and hubs into the appropriate locations.

 

If you have a subscription, there is a downside - you now need one subscription for each location.  But if you have the free 7-day cloud storage, you'd still get that for both locations.

@StephenB you can't call it a downside. The new app promises a number of new features but *fails* to inform the user that they'll lose some also. It's called deception.
