Model: Tapo C225  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.0.7

Hello, 

 

I bought recently a Tapo C225 V2 camera in Amazon France and i actually use Samsung Smartthings with an Aeotec hub for my connected home. I heard in January 2024 that Samsung and TP-Link made a partnership in order to fully integrate Tapo devices in Smartthings with the Work With Smartthings program (https://www.tapo.com/us/news/395/). They announced that the first compatible devices will be the Tapo C225 and SS75 cameras, but my C225 is not fully integrated like they explained 7 month ago. I can see only the live stream in my Smartthings app, whereas i wand to fully control it (rotate the camera, speak etc...) and make my C225 interact with other sensors in Smartthings by use the surveillance points (like rotate the camera to a specific sensor if this sensor detect something).

 

I should do something special like download a driver for my hub, update my camera etc... ? The WWTS program is planned for later this year ? Can you explain to me what should i do ?

 

Thanks for your help ! :)

Hi... same happened to me, i decided on tapo c225 because i was able to connect the tapo c100 on smartthings and get motion sensor for smart routines.

when i added the c225, it is detected as camera, but no motion sensor feature so i was not able to use it for my original intentions.

 

if the c100 is abe to be used as motion sensor on smarthings, i dont see why not the c225...   i guess a software update on the camera or in the app would fix it.

hope that c225 can be used on smart things as motion sensor would be a reality soon

Facing the same here. Funny thing my C200 has the motion detection "flag" somewhere,  but my C225 not.
