    Is anyone still seeing the duplicate devices still? If so please send a screenshot of the devices that need to be removed as well as the the user id and a list of the devices that are needing removed. ( They can not be friends devices) Send all this information by dm. You send a dm by clicking on the envelope icon on the top right of the forum page.

Hi @BrookeN ,

 

I did run into duplicate devices a few days ago (and a few times before then), which I resolved by deleting them in the app.

 

I got an e-mail on 5/28 which referenced my case number and it indicated that a root cause was found and a fix would be implemented shortly.

 

Yesterday I noticed an update to the iOS Arlo Secure app, now 4.14 (7458), which I installed. It's still only been a little less than a day but I don't see any duplicate devices yet. Hopefully this is the fix that the e-mail is referencing.

I have just looked through both my accounts and was able to delete obsolete devices and it seems as if I was able to only keep the ones which are still in use. Will observe how things go over the next weeks and liaise back if I encounter any issues. Thanks for the help!

Hi @BrookeN , 

 

I have the same issues.

In the app, I am not able to select devices but I see two devices listed in the privacy setting in the app.

However in the web-brower I don't see any Geo devices listed in the privacy setting.

 

Plase help.

Hi, I bought a new phone half a year ago and registered it as a device in the app. I have deleted my previous phone like 150 times (daily) but it still keeps coming back as a device, which makes geofencing not working. I've tried delete my previous phone on My Arlo and in the app, I've also deleted it under 2 step verification but still it keeps coming back as a device. Since Arlo has no support, unless you pay for it, I can't get help with my problem. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Arlo has free support but you need a subscription to be able to use it. Since you selected the Ultra 2 camera, it would seem that you have one unless you either are using local recordings on your hub or are in a country that can't get subscriptions.

 

How are you deleting the phone (even though it keeps coming back)? Are you using Settings, Data Privacy, Account, Available Geofence Devices?

Thank you for the answer! Unfortunately I don’t have a subscription, i use local storage. 
I’ve tried them all, account, geofencing, settings etc. I just can’t understand why it doesn’t  work. OT but i think it’s an outrage that Arlo doesn’t offers support when you buy their products that costs 500 euro. Scandalous! When these cameras are out of date i’ll buy from a company thats not built on greed. With that said, i’m very grateful for your help 🙏

Hi @BrookeN ,

 

I sent you a DM a little while back. I am still experiencing duplicate devices, most recently this morning after I restarted my phone.

 

Is this issue still being investigated?

 

Thanks!
