Just yesterday I used the talk back feature on my arlo pro camera. Today the microphone in the app just doesn't appear.

Nothing has changed in my settings. The microphone and speaker are still on. Nothing has changed in my phone permissions. The little icon just disappeared.

I tried rebooting the system. Checking for and upgrade and powering the mics on and off but it didn't work.

Please advise.

Aberjohn, try to do this.
1) Delete the app.
2) Hard reset your iPhone (- volume and power button for iPhone 7 and home + power butten for older version)
3) reinstall the app.

These steps works with me.

Bernitarantini,

 

Logging out of the app and signing back in should resolve this issue. Are you experiencing the microphone not displaying at all or a different issue?

See if there's any updates on your phone carrier and your iOS/Android by restarting/rebooting it.. see if that helps

Be sure you are logging out by navigating to Settings > Profile > Log out. Enter your password information and log back in.

 

This should restore the microphone icon.

Remove and reinstall fixed the microphone missing issue.

 

I hope Arlo can have a better testing before releasing the new software.
