As of this morning, Arlo iOS app (version 3.0 (1988)) is no longer showing badge notifications. It still creates banners/push/etc notifications, but I've lost the little red badge. Apple iPhone 12 Mini iOS 14.4

I reset and updated my watch recently and noticed I no longer can get Arlo notifications to my Apple Watch.

Ok. Arlo just released a update for its iOS app. V3.1(2105). Badges are still not working correctly. Have to open app for the badges to populate properly. Very frustrating. 

I am using an iPhone 12 Pro running iOS 14.4.1. Also discovered having same issue on my iPad mini( 5th gen) running 14.4.1. Please fix!

I have the latest updates and have the badge notifications but I never lost them on Iphone 8. So may be phone model specific.

HI @dforjohn

 

As the previous post mentions, the development teams currently looking in to the issue. @dcfox1 correct, this issue seems to not be affecting all users. I will provide an update as soon as possible.

New version of the app made no difference to the badge issue.

Versions

  • iPhone 11 Pro (iOS 14.4.1)
  • Arlo app (version 3.1)
  • Apple Watch Series 4 (OS 6.2.5)

 

Symptoms

  • Apple Watch haptic feedback works
  • No badge notifications on iPhone.
    • Same symptoms (badge appears only when app is open, banners work) and troubleshooting (app reinstall, device reboot, notification / badge settings re-enable) as everyone else already described

Suddenly red number notifications disappeared on app.
They been popping for since I bought and installed base and cameras but suddenly a couple of weeks ago they stopped showing on app icon.
I tried delete app and turn off phone - and reinstall. That didn’t help... In Notification Center everything is turned on for the Arlo app.
I have an iPhone 11.
What can I do to make red notification on app come back?

Has this issue been resolved?
Having same issue / problem:
(Approximately 2-weeks)
- No badges, push notifications, or sounds after latest update on iPhone 10.
- Both, iPhone & Arlo have been updated and running newest versions.
- Have also tried common troubleshooting procedures without success.

FYI, I updated my iPhone 12 mini this morning to iOS 14.4.2 (Arlo App 3.1(2105)) and the haptic feedback to my Apple Watch Series 3 (7.3.2) appears to be working again. I will trigger an event and send you the App logs again.

 

The original problem - no red badges on the iOS app - is still persisting.

It still cannot let me in from iPhone, it simply says "request timed out". It's been a problem for years, but before push notifications were broken I could at least know that something was happening and could login from laptop. Now, I never what happens at my property! Support is useless because I can't update the case and respond to their inquery, live chat is not working because after I answered all questions to the bot, support person joined said hello and instantly left the chat. I'm infuriated.

Having similar issues.  I am getting alert banners that motion triggered a recording.  The Video Library shows correct number of new recordings with a red number, the on the iPhone app screen with the Arlo Icon, the number does not appear until I open the Arlo app.  The it will update with a red dot and the number of new recordings shown.

If I open the app and then open open library - the number of new recordings clears (which is correct), and the Badge notification number also clears. 

When i have had several new alerts - the app icon does not update, only does so when I open the Arlo app and exit out of the app.  This behavior has only happened recently.
