I upgraded to the new App and yearly plan and it felt like a downgrade. We utilized many modes for our cameras, such as a “Windy Mode” that allowed us to reduce the sensitivity of the motion detection so cameras are not being set off to leaves or branches moving. Now we are limited to 3 modes and no way to control that sensitivity. I am very disappointed with this upgrade and do not understand why Arlo would remove functionality with an upgrade. I would caution anyone looking to renew their subscription or update their app. This was one of the main usefulness of the system and the app and now it is gone in favor of I don’t know what in the new App. I really hope Arlo addresses this fast.
We’ve heard your feedback, and the development team is working hard to deliver a similar custom modes experience that legacy users have come to enjoy while maintaining all the new improvements and features included in the latest version of the Arlo Secure App. We will keep the community up to date as we approach the release of this highly anticipated feature.
Thank you all for your continued feedback in helping make the Arlo experience the best it can be!
Your likely to have to wait another 12 months for arlo to make a move since they have just recently acknowledged that the new app UI is a failure on many fronts, ironically after the EOL date having passed for their legacy devices.

...since they have just recently acknowledged that the new app UI is a failure on many fronts, ironically after the EOL date having passed for their legacy devices.
I haven't actually seen Arlo admit that. Where have you seen it?
What is the latest on either the ability to go back to the old user interface that allowed customization across multiple locations OR a fix for the new app that only allows you to do the same? I spent an hour on a chat last night with someone who didn't help AT ALL.... When I tried to contact customer support via phone, they called twice and immediately disconnected when I answered the call. I am furious about this change and as a long time Arlo customer, I wold expect better all around customer service.

I came up with a solution. Thinking outside the box with three properties, which I utilize. I use secure home when I’m at one and the other two Record. I use the second mode when I’m at the other property and the other two are secured and I use standby at the third property and the other two are secured. Just had to write the rules for each mode And that’s how I’m working around. Would be nice if they just gave me more than the three modes and you could program your own description.

I agree, I used to have the free plan since I did not needed to have videos recorded past 7 days. Then 2 cameras died so I purchased 2 new and had to upgrade, not only that since the latest update to the app the cameras sensitivity went from good to nonexistent. They are slow, I have them almost at 100 and yet they used to capture a whole lot more before now I feel by the time I get notified the person or what’re has already come and gone. Also used to have multiple modes these are now useless. Been a customer since I think 2017 all good until they decided to change. Not sure of when the upgrades some I’ll renew. I hate to have to spend more in cameras but having an obsolete sensitivity kind of misses the point of the cameras.
Yes of course. I’ve used Arlo for years. All was good until that update, now it’s slow, sensitivity not as good, notifications are slow and the app itself I don’t like it, much simpler and useful before. It’s not the user, it’s the app
