I reckon this option of the cameras, currently only available in Tapo Care, should become free for all users, as it looks after the safety of all users and the quick action we can take, depending on if the cameras have spotted someone trying to enter our home. Sometimes every second matters.


Thanks

H, 
Thank you for your feedback here, while we don't have any specific details that I can share about if this feature will become free on the Tapo cam, I'll log the feature request and pass it along to the team to evaluate.
Best Regards

Ok to pay for a cloud solution recording (and that's normal because it cost) but not ok to pay for just having a snapshot in the notification.

This should be mandatory for a device that is intended to be used for security.

I would love this as well. Just bought 6 Tapo cams (2xC210, 2xC120, 1xD130 doorbell, 1xC425). I don't want any of my cameras to upload video footage to online, however the image used for rich notifications would be fine if they had to pass through your servers. I'd love it if rich notifications was a free feature, however, a compromise I could make is paying a smaller separate monthly payment to enable only rich notifications on all my cameras. Maybe a Rich Notifications Unlimited for $40/year that covers all cameras that you own? I am coming from a Wyze ecosystem that I owned since 2019 and subscribed to their Cam Plus Unlimited. Their cameras became unreliable so here I am with Tapo. Wish you all the best!

Eufy provides rich notifications without having to subscribe to their cloud recording service.

Most competitors have this feature. and it is quite capable of working without affecting the resources of the paid cloud. its absence is a serious shortcoming.

This sounds great! For instance if I could have a rich notification of what the camera last saw before going offline or lost power that would be super useful to know if I should be concerned about cameras being offline or not
