I have my cameras configured to record only on detection, as this prevents the microSD cards from wearing out too quickly. When I'm at home, I want my cameras to record events without notifications, and when I'm out I need the cameras to record events AND send notifications. Currently, the only two actions available for cameras are "Enable Privacy Mode" and "Disable Privacy Mode". Privacy mode disables recording and notifications, which is not what I want.

 

There is a setting inside the camera configuration to disable notifications, but getting to it and toggling it for each camera every time is very tedious and easy forget. It would be nice to be able to toggle this using a shortcut and to be able to automate it as well. Thank you!

Hi,
Thank you very much for your feedback, I'll log it and forward it to the relevant team for evaluation.

 

Alternatively, you can use the Home/Away mode on the Tapo app to change several cameras' detection and notification settings simultaneously if needed.

Support this as it is a pain to open the app each time, however better still ensure home and away can be ennabled via automation so that it can be controlled by geolocation and other triggers... thx
