OK I posted Sunday night/Monday morning but someone decided to mark.my problem as spam. That night I had turned on my 360 camera to try to check on where my cat was without getting up out of bed. Wel...

I had the same problem, error 90, app refused to remove device. I uninstalled the Smart Home app from my phone, rebooted the phone, then reinstalled app. It was still not responding to turn on/off commands every time, so I created 2 rules, to turn both cameras on and off. Seems to be working reliably now. Hope that helps you.
Well after I had it working again it went right back to refusing to turn off so I had unplugged it so it would stop bloody recording me. And later plugged it back in and uninstalling and reinstalling thw smart home app again allowed me to turn it off and it actually turns off but that is ridiculous that I would need to keep uninstalling and reinstalling the app to get THAT camera to actually shut off suddenly. I do actually have a turn on/off rule for my cameras, but I have the off time set longer than it normally takes me to get home from work just to account for well maybe this night I don't leave right on time ya know? So I have em stay on and while longer and just manually turn then off when I get home, but now there's this sudden issue ONLY with the 360 camera.
I don't know if this made any difference or not, but I went through the setup process on both of my cameras again, after I reinstalled the app. Just tested them both again, working well, but it's only been 3 days since I took these steps.
So yeah no it STILL will not let me actually turn off the camera. I have to uninstall and reinstall the app EVERY **bleep** time to get it to allow me to manually turn the camera off which is absolutely ridiculous! And yeah love how no one from roku has said anything. Why can't I just email support to be able to get help? Cause I don't have the time to waste sitting around between whatever the specific hours are to "chat" with support, and sure as heck ain't calling, especially cauae i have very bad phone anxiety.
I changed my "at work" rule to turn the cameras off at 11:05pm instead of 11:30, since the long extention was because of a time when I more frequently wasn't getting out of work right on time. I kind of prefer having it set later and just manually turning then off when I get home, to make sure they're on until I get home to see what my cat is up to.
Hi there!

May we know what is the status light of the camera once you turn it off? Also, when did the issue start?
