Orbi RBR850 uninstall Armour

All updated Firmware and Apps. There is not a way to uninstall or turn off Armour on my system. Everyone talks about tapping the cloud(do not have that icon in my app) or the circle with the home in it. I did tap the Home icon. Tapping on the Home icon with the cloud takes you to a your products page showing a router with a check mark. i tried to tap the check mark and it does nothing.  I have reinstalled and rebooted and reset everything trying to stop armour. Nothing. Its still there. 

 The problem I have with armour is that most of what they call attacks are coming from my AIRtv. The system seems to be interrupted and laggy. I wanted to conduct test to see if Armour is the cause or not but after reading all the bad press on it I feel that removing it is better . Unfortunately there isn't a way it seems.

    You can turn OFF Armor using the Orbi app and selecting the top left menu icon then select Settings/Security/Armor, select the slider button to turn it off. 

     

    If you have Armor installed on a PC or laptop, try uninstalling the app from the Control Panel/Programs and Features section in Windows.
