So I made a huge mistake moving to the new interface! Today I have Arlo secure with unlimited cameras. I wanted to organize my cameras by location. However, Arlo demands a separate subscription for each location. This would tripple my current cost! I also wanted to setup separate schedules to arm and disarm the camera. Very easy in the old interface, not available in the new interface. My patience is very thin with this new functionality. I think it might be time to move on from Arlo at this point. Also, the support both by phone and chat has NOT solved any of these issues!

Anyone been successful setting up individual schedules for each camera?

Yes, when you fall for the 'huge advantages' of the new upgrade, you're not informed about the fact that you'll now need to fork out on new locations. I find this approach unacceptable and some consumer bodies here in the EU should actually look into this practice, as clearly it puts one at a disadvantage and as a result of it, you didn't make an informed decision, not to mention the fact that there was no way out of that upgrade, as the words 'cancel' or 'go back' or 'no, thank you' don't appear there.  

In terms of schedules, I'm afraid you're limited to three. Which, of course, is another 'advantage' of the upgrade.
