This is getting weird. Someone else recently reported that they cannot get the app to control guest wifi.
Which app is this? iOS or Android?
By the way, in Windows Alt+Print Screen is easier, and more elegant, than taking photos of a screen.

I'm running the Nighthawk app under iOS version 15.3.1 on an iPhone-8.

Great. I've passed it on to the Netgear team.
That's two iOS "guest wifi" issues, but complelety different results.

Have there been any updates to this problem? I am having the same issue with the Nighthawk app. It is re-enabling the 5GHz SSID broadcast every time sign in through the app.
