I can not connect to HomeKit through the Arlo app. I only see the 'Discovering your device. Please wait.' screen.

Steps taken:
Reboot Arlo Base Station and Cameras
Reboot home WiFi
Soft-reset iPhone
Uninstall & re-install Arlo appRestart Apple HomeKit Home Hubs (Apple TVs)
Confirm all Apple hardware is up-to-date with software
Confirm all Arlo hardware is up-to-date with software & firmware
Confirm all devices are on same WiFi network
Place cameras, base station, and iPhone within inches of each other
Leave iPhone on above 'Discovering your device...' screen for over 60 minutes


If someone could please assist me that would be great!

Arlo cameras all worked fine through Apple HomeKit...but now are “Accessory Unavailability” after the latest Arlo App Update 2.15

Using an iPhone X 13.4.1 and Arlo App: 2.15 147

The App just hangs as I try to re- add my Basestation.

What step within the Homekit app are you on?

 

Are you on the same wifi network as the base station?

 

A screenshot will help determine the issue.

I’m not in the Apple HomeKit app. In the Arlo App, where you set up HomeKit...the App just stalls. Yes...I’ve disabled Cell, and I’m on my home WiFi.
