I am having difficulty scheduling ALL my cameras to Arm Away (10:00 PM-7:00 AM) and then Standby (7:00 AM-10:00 PM)
Can someone kindly provide me the correct instructions and/or provide screen shots of their App reflecting this schedule. (I tried following the scheduling instructions on the official Arlo video---but I was unsuccessful)

Generally I recommend setting up the system so that Arm Away is only used when you are away. Then it is easy to suspend the schedule when you go on an extended trip. So you should consider setting up Arm Home to arm all cameras, and switching to Arm Home at night instead of Arm Away.
Here are screen shots that do that (using different times). These are a bit out of date - the current UI shows the schedule a bit differently, and doesn't show the modes in which the automation is enabled.
Often folks don't enable the automations in the correct modes - which results in the schedule not engaging. In general, the automations need to be enabled in the modes you are switching from. You enable the automations by going into the three mode settings, and scrolling down to the automations section.
Usually I suggest enabling all the schedule automations in both Arm Home and Standby, but not enabling them in Arm Away. Then when you do leave, you can switch to Arm Away on the dashboard screen, and the cameras will stay armed 24x7 until you return and set the mode back to Arm Home or Standby.

Stephen B,
Thank you for your response. I am still having a lot of diffiuclty navigating through this app---it is not very user friendly.
Take a look at my screen shots. I am unable to get the screen to show "THEN: ARM HOME" and "THEN: STANDBY". Instead, it remains "THEN" Change Mode"
Would you be able to provide me with a "step by step" instructions from the beginning to accomplish this?

Press the > next to "Change Mode". Then you should be able to select the mode.
