How to reset Push notification App badge number on iPhone App

[Ritch]

I just called again and the guy had NO idea what I was talking about. I told him to go read this string of comments on THEIR site. And that this has been an issue for over 3 years. He said okay and hung up on me. Worst customer service ever!

Hi,

I never heard back from anyone at Netegar/Arlo (really bad customer service). After having over 7000 notifications I figured what would happen if I decided to change my email/profile setting. I changed the email address from gmail.com to yahoo.com and for some reason I was then completely locked out of the system. The system was still running since another family member had access.

I then proceed to reset the base station; set everything back up as new. I used my previous email (orginial setup) and setup the other cameras. Of course that would wipe out all the recordings on the cloud; I have an external USB drive hooked up to the station to keep the recordings locally as well.

The setup completed without issues; the cloud recordings were removed but my notification issue has now been FIXED. I've did some testing and the notificaton counter is working properly.

I ended up resolving this issue myself. Arlo customer service personnel couldn't help me, and never found the solution here in the community, so I had to be my own detective. For me it all started when a family member granted me access to their cameras. After removing me, my badge app count got as high as 357. I found what was going on, and I am back to normal again. No ridiculously high numbers. I am going to post the link here for you, and to help anyone else that stumbles upon this thread.
