In my quest to get rid of the Green dot next to setting, I found "Ad Inspector" in the mobile app.

• What is this?
• Clicking on it does nothing

It's not an active feature and was released by mistake. It will be removed in the next version.

It's been there for some time, so how come no-body from Arlo had noticed? 

Can we have a feature, released by mistake, that allows us to control the video quality? We'll all swear to secrecy to never mention to Arlo that it's there so that you don't remove it.

It's nice to hear you admit that you have absolutely zero controls in place.  That fits perfectly with what we see.

Arlo will never be able to fix this version.  Your team (hopefully a new one) needs to start from scratch.  There's no way that you can replace the stolen features and address all of the thousands of defects in what I'm sure by now is a huge mess of code. 

Start over.  It's the only way.

I'd like to add a few things to that list, and I also swear to not tell anyone.
