The mode tab won't appear on our Android apps any more. The only tabs visible are now Devices and Library.
The Mode tab worked yesterday for me (Google Pixel 2), and for my wife this morning (Google Nexus 5).
I can log into https://arlo.netgear.com/#/modes and change the modes.
I have restarted my base station, and reinstalled the app. Why would the modes disappear during the day without us changing anything? Is this another server issue at your end? We've had this problem before with an Arlo outage causing hours of confusion, and no notification of downtime.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Excellent. Never have had to do that before, so not intuitive to me. Can go without geofencing for a while. Really appreciate the advice.

I can additionally confirm that removing the Arlo application (v 20632) released in April, 2018 and instead installing the prior release (v 18293) made available in October, 2017 has restored the missing "Mode" menu item.
Granted with my running the prior release I am not running an up-to-date application, but it *is* working and all functionality I use within the application is working, i.e. changing between two custom modes, occasionally viewing the live feed, etc. for me.

Alrighty, I finally got through to a representative via Chat. I was informed that they are aware of the problem and that Arlo engineers are working on a solution for the problem... and of course that they appologise for the problem. Hope they go live with the solution sooner then later.

I noticed this as well.
I suspect whoever moderates the community forum believes it best for users to not install the prior release from an external website outside their control and to instead, accept the broken functionality introduced with the latest release. At the same time, not provide users with any sort of expectation to when the issue reported will be fixed is unacceptable.
Let's just hope the cause is identified quickly and a resolution is made available after it's been properly QA'd. In the interim, Google can be your friend to find anything...
😉

As noted in many threads here and possibly the app store information, there's a gray bar near the top (iOS) or a pull-down arrow near the top (Android) that you have to use to get to the alarm.

That's a different kettle of fish. The lack of the Mode tab has been widely discussed here for the past 2 days.

1) WHY are these threads on this issue that were originally posted on the Arlo Pro board being moved to the Arlo board? Once that happens I no longer get notification emails that someone replied. I had to go to the Arlo board to find this again. I have defended netgear on past issues and tried to keep a level head and calm others with some of the past issues, but....... what is netgear trying to hide here. Why move the post?
2) I'm sure that some are experiencing the issue and others aren't because Arlo must have rolled out an internal update to it's server / system and either replication to all their servers hasn't completed or they realized there was an issue and stopped the roll out. I'm sure a big company like Netgear rolls out updates just like we would in my compnay of 30,000 users. The update / patch / fix / etc first get copied to distribution servers located all over the world, then the updates take place from the distribution servers.
Since I keep my system in Armed all the time and use smartthings to turn the cameras on and off, it's not really affecting me, but this is a huge issue for everyone else. This is bigger than the mic/speaker issue for iOS users, this needs to be fixed immediatly and should be netgear #1 priority right now. Time will tell.............

I can also confirm app version 2.4.6_18293 fixes the missing mode tab.
Additionally, have turned off auto updates at the play store to prevent the obvious.

This web site should have an announcement page. When you get into the site the first thing you see is the announcement page. If there are any problems going on, and when do we expect it to get resolved. Believe me this is going to do wonders for everyone especially the Arlo staff itself.

RE: No Mode selection with Android Phones.
It just baffles me that Arlo would not make a public announcement on this issue that is affecting so many.
They should acknowledge there is a problem. (whether its thier fault or not).
Let people know they are adressing the problem.
Give an estimate time for solving the issue or some kind of status updates.
Instead I see many people reloading the app or software and rebooting causing major frustration and disatisfaction.
Come on Arlo Netgear, you can do better.
