Replaced batteries, app still says that it is time to replace the batteries

[Jetlag18]

Hi everyone.  One of our cameras had "tired" batteries.  After I replaced them, the app still says that it is time to replace the batteries.  If I turn the camera off and then on in the app it reflects 100% but then goes offline.  I thought that it was a camera issue, but when I signed into my account on a computer everything was fine.  Anyone else having issues with the app since that last update?

Try to uninstall the app and re-install and it back 🙂

I uninstalled and installed the app but that didn't solve the problem.

verify the batteries are all installed correctly

The batteries are in correctly.  On my iphone the app reflects dead batteries.  On my laptop the camera is functioning properly.  It seems to be a bug in the app

This happened to me yesterday one of my batteries was low so I put a fresh fully charged battery in. When it connected the red empty battery came up and I got the low battery. I put it back in the charger to verify it was charged tried again with the same result. I then swapped another charged battery from a different camera and put the battery showing empty into that camera and both cameras showed fully charged. They are still 100% and working fine. I was using my android phone.

My cameras are the original arlo wireless so I am not using rechargeable batteries.  I tried 3 different sets of batteries with the same result.

Try restarting the base, too.

I am seeing the same thing. Seems to be a bug in the iOS app.

Works fine on my PC, and recordings still happening.

Hopefully will be addressed in an update.

I've had this issue for months now and several IOS app updates have not solved the issue. Replacing the batteries, removing and re-adding the camera to the base, nothing worked.

Everytime I try to view the live feed of this 1 camera, it shows the dreaded "its time to change your batteries" message, even there are 100% new batteries in it and accessing the cam through safari/chrome web interface works just fine.

Netgear can't seem to fix this issue for a while now.

@Bishopdavid,

Have you tried to reboot your base station and test again?
