Called Arlo customer support and did everything including resets, uninstalling and reinstalling. They finally said everything is okay on Arlo’s end. Said to check with Apple. Apple says it’s Arlo. Anyone else have this problem?

Hi @Snowsucks,

 

What iPhone are you using? Have you tried checking your notifications on your iPhone settings and try to toggle the notifications off and on?

iPhone 7 plus. Yes, I've uninstalled and re installed the app. I've switched the notivications on and off in settings as well.

What notifications are you speaking of and what are you not receiving? I have the iPhone 7 Plus with no issues may be able to assist...

We use to get an alert if there was motion. Now we don't get any notifications, the app still records, however it doesn't alert us at all on the phone.

Ok some things to confirm...

What subscription do you have if any?

If on a smart plan have you setup your notifications for each camera on the smart notifications page under settings?

Have you gone to your IOS settings and scrolled all the way to the Arlo app at the bottom and confirmed notifications are on?

Yes, set up notifications under each camera.

Hi @Snowsucks,

 

Have you tried checking your modes/rules to make sure that the push notifications are enabled on the Arlo iOS app? Try to disable the push notifications and save. And then try to re-enable the push notifications and save.
