Whenever I try to watch live mode in the android app, I get a black screen with audio about 75% of the time. I used to get video more often but the problem is getting worse. Please help.

James,
As these guys are stating it is happening in the latest version.
i think Arlo underestimate how well customers know their systems and applications.
i am having my hub changed out tomorrow. If this doesn’t rectify the issues I will expect a full refund. As it stands at the moment I am sitting with £700 worth of junk, a purchase based on misleading claims

James,
I appreciate you take the time to solve our problems however your support team Are an absolute joke. I have been in contact with these people on numerous occasions and still have no resolution to problems that started back at the beginning of May.
I have downloaded the latest version and will keep you updated. In the mean time was the main reason for this release to specifically rectify the blacked out recordings?

James,
The problem still exists!!! I have been contacting Arlo's support for months already, but the support team even not bothers to answer! I have 12 Ultra cameras, and 5 hubs which is a LOT of money spent in Arlo's products, but your support really sucks! In fact I NEVER get any help from the support with any problem, and this live stream in 2K (and 4K before) is the worst problem so far. Why is yr standard answers always "check that you have the latest app version" or " pls delete the app, and reinstall it" or "do a factory reset to all yr cameras and hubs" (12 cameras and 5 hubs!!!). We are not idiots, we have done all this already, before contacting the support, but we don't get any help whatsoever from you!
Just another example to make my point: My free subscription should have ended 20.8.20 according to the info in my Arlo app, but it suddenly ended without any warning on 13.8., so I contacted the support about this. They asked to send a screen shot where 20.8. is mentioned. Well, sure, I could have done that BEFORE it ended, but now that info was of course already gone! They promised however to check this and get back to me next day. I however still haven't heard a word form the support! So I had no other choice than to make a new expensive subscription long before 20.8. (which was much more expensive than informed when I bought the cameras a year ago), and why should you bother to check my case and answer any more, as I already paid for a new subscription... This is how Arlo´s support works! NOT HAPPY!

Ok this goes from bad to even worse.
Updated to the latest ios app yesterday to find issue with both cameras being offline. Restarted the hub to get it back working again.
Checked the app this afternoon same problem cameras showing as being offline yet hub showing blue light as if everything is working correctly.
Checked the sd card recordings for today and nothing in library.
Now what do we do JamesC? I am in a worse position before the latest updated and cannot roll back to the previous version. I have now literally had enough of this. How do I claim a full refund? I am going elsewhere .

That is broken since months, and they refuse to fix it.
Turning it off will give you 1080p which is working.

Finally!!! 😀
4K Live stream works on my S20 Ultra! 👍
After latest update I have no black screen when being in 4K Live Stream mode (same local network).
Thanks for that!
Unfortunately, it took a very long time to fix the problem, which unfortunately has caused irritation among many customers.

The share price is good just now so Arlo simply don't care, but that'll soon change with this poor level of service.
Come on, get this product fixed.

EDIT.
After turning 4K off and using 1080p once and turning 4K on again, it is working!!
Very strange. After uninstalling, rebooting and reinstalling it didnt fix it immediately, only the second time I did turn it on.
Same behavior on all 5 cams.
So atm it is working on all 5 Cams.

Doesn't work on Note10 Plus as well. Everything is up to date. This is only one case of many in which support simply don't give a ****. I gave them all the info regarding a time zone bug, spent so much time explaining, sending logs even suggested fixing it myself (I'm a programmer), but 1 year later and the bug still exists.
I will never recommend Arlo to ANYONE !
