An "x" means one of three things. 1. Its a flase positive and if you tap on the clip it will still play. 2. There was an issue that occured when the clip uploaded to the cloud and it is unretrivable. 3. There is an indexing issue and it might be retrievable. We would need to know your Kasa acccount email address though. Is it the same one you used to register here on the community? Also please provide us the error you received when trying to play the clip.

@Ramburner I'm sending pics of my settings ect to them and trying to fix this. It sucks when everything was fine until I gave them payment for the cloud service. If they don't fix it I will cancel the Cloud. I suggest you contact tech support, maybe they will understand that I'm not the only one having this issue. Good luck.

I have the same issue. What was the fix? The clips have an X over them and when you click it is says "Activity in Progress: Your camera is still recording activity. check back later to play this clip."

@Ramburner I have been having this issue for a week!! I've updated the app as advised and still not working. Friday nights my mum was abused by the Neighbour and the footage has a x in the middle. This is crucial evidence the police require and now nothing I can do!!! I pay the subscription but for what ???? It doesn't record properly every time. This needs rectifying immediately otherwise what a waste of money for product and subscription. I want answers please

@Ramburner my cam is the kasa spot pan and tilt . Just not good enough. Especially when I purchased because my 77 year old mum was assaulted.
