What is the benefit of Arlo Feed over the former Library? Library offered a grid view of thumbnails and I could easily look for action (or filter to certain cameras) and find videos of what I was interested in. Now feed is one vertical listing of recording with one per row and a huge waste of screen space. Now I have to scroll endlessly vertically through thumbnails.

 

Is there a setting for a grid view of recording thumbnails in Feed? If not Arlo, can you bring it back or add it to Feed. Right now Feed is not very useful. 

 

Grid view please, pack my screen with information instead of only 10% of my screen with information (thumbnails)

Another weird design in the Feed UI. If I want to filter to one camera, I now have to FILTER OUT all the other cameras  one by one to see just one! Intuitively, when enabling filters, I should be able to click on the camer(s) I want to see, not have to disable all the cameras I don't want to see. Whose brilliant idea is that? 

 

Does Feed work for anyone?

No, there is a "deselect all" control at the top.

 

If you have a filter already in place, you need to first "select all", and then you can select "deselect all".  Not as fluid as I'd like, but not one-by-one.

I completely agree with you, this new format is terrible.  Also, now when you pause a recording, you can't back it up or go forward with it in the pause.  The video just starts to play again.

 

Arlo, please give us a choice to go back to the old views.
