As of this morning, Arlo seems to be working. Got an email with limited explanation but how to correct. See posting by others above for information.

@Aec

Just FYI --- You should not have to uninstall and reinstall the Arlo app to get things working when the issue is a system outage on the Arlo side. Logging out and back in might help once the service is restored, but uninstall and reinstall is not needed.

In fact, there is currently a bug in the andriod app (just sure about iOS) where if you uninstall and reinstall you will now get double notification sounds from the Arloo app. Uninstall and reinstall again to try and fix that and you get triple sounds, and so on and so on. There are multiple posts in this forum that cover the uninstall reinstall multiple notification sounds isses.

Unfortunately 2018 has not been a good year for Arlo. Beginning of the year the Arlo database went down. After that user accounts were corrupted and once database was restored many people were offline. Some for weeks, up to a month. Some people manage to get their system back others it came back eventually on it's own. Then after that came the battery drain issue where the IR lights on the camera came on after the cameras were turned off. Took a month for that fix, but that brought other battery issues, motion issue, cameras offline issues. Then another firmware update, which fix things for most, but not for many others. Then another firmware update that broke working people, fixed some, made others worse. After several firware updates, many still report the same problems. Now the service goes down again.

There are just 5 examples of major problems in 2018, plus all the little bugs in the apps and firware as well.

Hopefully it's just growing pains as we are technically earliy adopters of such technology in the home. Either things get better or we all start switching to another product.

Yeah, I made that mistake of uninstalling/re-installing the app and had up to 4 notification sounds.  Fixed it by uninstalling the app, running CCleaner on my smartphone and re-installing app.  Back to one notification sound.

Aug 4 2018 in the morning my android phone worked great using the arlo app. In the afternoon it started saying system is experiencing unexpected issues. Now it won't let me log in. I powered off the base station for a minute. Didn't help. I reinstalled the arlo pro app and that didnt help. Now what???

[pc2k17]

Ccleaner........ good call. Even though I have an android phone I'm not an android person so I had no idea ccleaner had an android app. I've used it for years on windows computers. There was a manual fix posted, and I've been too busy to do it to fix my double notification issue, so I haven't done it yet. I'm going to try your method.

Mine is arlo pro not 2

[Aec]

It’s the mobile app - log out, delete it, reinstall and log back on — then it works!

[Aec]

I have iPhone. So the Android app may have other issues beyond what I had. What have other Android users done to get this to work right?

[Pittocarrillo]

iOS is hard to log out! Can’t manage to get this work... anyone has news on this bug is supper annoying

[Pittocarrillo]

What’s the news on this bug, I’m in NM USA and still down my wife with granted account has acces but not the grantor

[Chrishijada]

[Aec]

I powered off my iPhone, waited a few minutes, then powered it up again before going back to the Arlo app to log myself out. That worked.

[Frecoder78]

Anyone else not able to log on to their app after yesterday’s outage? I am still experiencing issues. My wife is able to log on which is strange!
