My wired doorbell used to call my cell before a very cold snap /lost power.  It still calls my wife's cell!

May I ask which troubleshooting steps you have performed so far? I don't want to suggest anything you have previously performed.

Hello.  My wife has the main account on her phone because I already had an account (parents) 4 camera's on my phone.  I have compared her settings (the doorbell will call her cell) to mine.  This all started when we had a power outage from an extremely cold weather just before Christmas.  

I re-set the camera per the instructions, re-joined to the base station per instructions.

Thanks for the feedback.

Just to make sure I'm understanding correctly, you are the granted access user and the doorbell will call your phone when pressed and your wife is the main account holder/phone and the doorbell will not call her phone?

I am the access granted party.  The doorbell will call my wife's cell, but not my cell.

Can you PM me with your wife's admin account email attached to the account? Also, can you see a "feed button" icon on your wife's phone in the Arlo app at the bottom or a "Library" button?

 

I do not see a doorbell attached to this email you are messaging from.

 

Thanks

There is a library button at the bottom, no feed button.

Thanks,

 

Are you able to live stream the doorbell camera in the app? Does the primary user have the enable calls and videos checked for your granted account?

If you log in with your account on the phone that does ring, do you receive a call then? I'm trying to determine if it's isolated to only your phone?

 

Thanks
