Looking for 'instant' record - Overriding Scheduled Recording time on demand
2023-04-13 22:09:34
Model: Tapo C210  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.3.0

 

We have a c210 set to record between the hours of 11pm-7am.  Set to capture on motion.

Would like the option to, on phone, start recording when we leave the house (only record on motion),

and then be able to stop recording, on phone, when we get back ?

 

Anyone know how to do, or if its an option ?

 

Thanks,
Steve

Good day! Thank you for the post. Unfortunately, there is no function or setting that can meet this requirement at the moment.  

 

There is no shortcut to adjust the recording schedule.

 

However, the Tapo C210 has a Home/Away mode that you can try to utilize. It can adjust the motion detection settings with one click, FYI. How to edit Home and Away Mode for Tapo camera

Looking at the instructions based on that link. Interface looks different on my phone as I don't see the home/away option. Is that screen based on an IOS device ?
