Use The Sync Button To Reset The Camera - Arlo Essential User Manual

Check the Arlo app notification settings on an Android device
Make sure that you allow the Arlo app to receive push notifications. The Arlo app push
notifications can be disabled on iOS and Android devices.
1. Tap the Settings icon for your Android device.
2. Tap Application Manager > Arlo.
3. Make sure that the Show Notifications setting is selected.
If you said no to push notifications at installation
When you install the Arlo app for the first time, to receive alerts, you must select Allow when
asked if you want Arlo to send you push notifications. For iOS apps, after you respond to this
alert, it isn't presented again unless the device is restored to factory settings or the app is
uninstalled for at least a day.
If you said no on an iOS device, uninstall the app, wait for a day, and then reinstall it, and
allow notifications. If you don't want to wait a day before you reinstall the app, you can use
the system clock on your device to simulate a day. Set the system clock forward a day or
more, turn your device off, and then turn the device back on. After you reinstall the app, return
the system clock to the correct setting.
