In the C320WS - does it record on SDCard before sending to Tapo Care ?

Model: Tapo C320WS

Hardware Version: V2

Firmware Version: 1.0.4

I'm wondering a bit about this.

Does the camera record to SD Card before sending to Cloud or does it do both simultaniously ?

If the WiFi has poor quality it would make sense to record to SD Card first and then send to internet.

But on the other hand - if the burgler / thief tampers with the camera, it would be beneficial to Stream directly to internet while also recording to SD Card - in case the camera is destroyed or taken down.

What is the answer ?

Hi,
If the Tapo cam has an SD card inserted and subscribed to the Tapo Care service, when a motion is detected, the video clip will be saved to the SD card and sent to the cloud server at the same time. And if the Wi-Fi signal is not working properly(such as unstable or very slow), it may cause the video clips to fail to upload to the cloud server. Generally, we recommend putting the camera in a location that has a good Wi-Fi signal.

Best Regards
