Randomly Switches to Arm Away Mode

[KachinaShadow]

Switches to Arm Away 2-3 times a day, at random times, for a minute or less each time. Oddly enough when I see it and can quickly bring up Google Maps, it knows exactly where my phone is and which way it's facing.

Are you using geofencing (sounds like you are)? How many people are set to use this - just yourself or is someone else (wife, etc.) configured, too? Are you using Specific People in the GF settings or Anyone/Everyone?

Yes, geofencing is enabled and has always worked flawlessly until Tuesday of last week (17th). My Android is the only phone with the Arlo app on it...geofencing is set to Everyone.

You could remove the existing automations and recreate them to see if that helps or use Specific People instead of Everyone. Also, don't forget that the app uses the phone's location services so be sure that is set to use precise location.

I was getting ready to try what you suggested and I noticed that there wasn't an issue for the couple days prior to me trying it and since hasn't occurred since, I'm leaving well enough alone since what wasn't an issue for years, is now back to working fine.
I'm guessing that since the issue was only for less than a minute each time, there was possibly an issue with the Android/Google GPS location function.
Thanks though, for the good suggestion.
