Deco11,

 

Push notifications are sent as soon as motion is detected. Library content will arrive once the recording has completely finished. This often will mean if you navigate to your library as soon as you receive a notification, the library content will not yet be present. If you have a longer recording time set for your rules, this delay will be increased. Does the content arrive if you allow for a short delay?

No the video never arrives. I ha e had Arlo for 2 years and never had an issue and all of a sudden no videos on library at all!

Just to be sure, there's no filter set in the library, right? The funnel at the top should be empty, not filled in.

No filter. I have not changed any of the settings. Still no video at all. I try to look up past threads for the answer and netgear delete them all. It is ridiculous. How can tou expect anyone to research issues of threads are all deleted. What other suggestions do you have? Thank you for your time !

Go to your browser and connect to https://arlo.netgear.com - when prompted to install the app, use the browser menu to use the desktop version. Live view won't work but the library should be fine.

I have the same problem. Have to log out, then log in again to be able to see the alert in the library.

 

Extremely irritating!

Have you tried refreshing the library page (browser) and pulling down on the page to refresh (app)? Logging out is definitely a brute force method of refreshing.

Only method that works if I want to see the new notification (if the app has been active for about an hour) is to log out and log in again.
