Privacy mode keeps turning off
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Hi,
I enable privacy mode when I return to my property. However, after a random amount of time I start receiving motion notifications on my phone and then I notice the LED on the camera is on and it has turned off privacy mode. If I turn on privacy mode I notice that it will turn it back off after a certain amount of time. Has anyone else seen this?

Hi,
I think I found the problem. I had an IFTTT link to turn on the camera automatically when leaving a location. It appears that this didn't work properly and it was that link that was turning on the camera even though I was in the location where it shouldn't do anything.
I've removed that and it has not turned the camera on since. Many thanks for your reply.

What is the kasa app version? Please ensure that it is up to date.
Is there anybody who tabs on it and turn off the privacy mode by accident?
You can try to log out the kasa app from other devices except yours and then turn on the privacy mode and verify whether it will turn it off automatically.
Besides, you can hard reset the camera and reconfigure it to give it a go.
Still the same, please tell us the cloud account and mac address of the camera privately so that we can do further analysis.
Good day.
